India's textile cottage industries involve entire villages in silk weaving,
fabric dyeing, and embroidery. The fabric of this traditional silk tunic is
hand-loomed in Bhagalpur, a town famous for its silk production. A spray of
embroidered and sequined flowers decorates the faux split neck and bell sleeves.
Made in Bihar province, India. Dry clean only.
Price Each: $68.00
I wonder the poor artisian who slogs 18 hrs a day in the rural area of Bhagalpur to produce such fine silk and garment knows that his product gets sold at over Rs. 4000 per piece abroad. Btw, in most of these silk units in Mumbai, Bhagalpur & UP, sweat & toil of children goes into making the fabric. No prizes for guessing how much they would be earning per day.
