It is produced in the Bargarh, sonepur, sambalpur, balangir district, Boudh District of Odisha. The salwar is a traditional female garment in the Indian subcontinent consisting of a strip of unstithed cloth ranging from four to nine meters in length that is draped over the body in various styles. The Sambalpuri dress material are known for their incorporation of traditional motifs like shankha (shell) chakra (wheel), phula (flower) all of which have deep symbolism, but the highpoint of these dress material is the traditional craftsmanship of the Bandhakala the Tie-dye art reflected in their intricate weaves,also known as Sambalpuri Ikkat. In this technique, the threads are first tie-dyed and later woven into a fabric, with the entire process taking many weeks. To provide protection to the weavers practicing this art, the handloom silk salwar kameez manufactured in Sambalpur and berhampur in Odisha were included in the Government of India’s geographical indication (GI) registry. Sambalpuri fabrics reflect an original style of craft known as Baandha. Traditionally, craftsmen created Baandhas with images of flora or fauna or with geometrical patterns. More recently new types of Baandha depicting portrait landscape and flower pods are being designed. Baandha fabric is created using a tie-dye technique. The yarns are tied according to the desired patterns to prevent absorption of dyes, and then dyed. The yarns or set of yarns so produced is called Baandha. The unique feature of this form of designing is that the designs are reflected almost identically on both side of the fabric. This versatile technique enables a craftsman to weave colourful designs patterns and images into a fabric capable of inspiring a thought or conveying a message. Thus Baandha can be defined as A length of systematically arranged yarn, dyed according to a preconceived design in such a manner so as to enable a weaver to portray the design when the yarn is converted to a fabric through the process of weaving. The Sambalpuri salwar kameez is a light and springy crepe fabric, with a crimpy look and a slightly dull lustre. Once made from natural silk, it is today mostly made from synthetic filament yarn.
