Here are five saree fabrics that are in trend now.
Satin sarees
One of the most popular and trendy fabrics these days, a satin saree must be included in your ethnic wear collection. Satin is composed of silk, which is derived from silkworm cocoons.

Sequin sarees

A popular choice among Bollywood celebrities, sequin work sarees usually have a base of silk, net, crepe, or georgette on which embellishments are done. These sarees are lightweight and can be worn at cocktail parties and night outs. Style these with minimal accessories and a fancy purse.
Linen sarees
One of the most comfortable saree fabrics, linen is derived from a plant-based fiber called flax. These sarees are also lightweight and breathable and are suitable for the Indian weather as they allow easy airflow. These sarees have a higher sweat absorbency capacity, which makes them a bit more expensive than other fabrics. Linen sarees are perfect for the summer season.
Lycra sarees
