Entry#2 - Bengali style
Here is my second entry for the Onam Challenge. I have draped my Kerala saree in Bengali style.
To me there has always been this connection between the two cultures - both places have fish and rice as their staple food, they both have white as their primary color for festive occasions, and both languages are such tongue twisters! In both the places there is a strong emphasis on art - especially literature and music. When it comes to movies also - both places are known for churning out excellent art movies.
I have tried my best to wear Bengali style - please dont mind the flaws. One beautiful aspect of Bengali brides is the combination of red and white in their saree, bindhi, makeup. So I have tried a hand-drawn red and white bindhi and worn accessories with red in them.
