Award-winning Touch of Class has been featured several times in magazines, and even on TLC. Though they are younger {est. in 2006} than most of the saree shops we’ve featured here, their vision remains the same: a dedication to promotion of traditional crafts and textiles of India. They also sell beautiful Paithani border pieces, dress material, lehenga material, and exclusive vintage collectible art, in addition to sarees. Their website is very informative, and features a lot of information on the culture and meaning behind Paithani styles and motifs. Their collection is available for online viewing, but purchase can be made only by filling in an enquiry form, or contacting them directly. It’s a little expensive, but you’re getting the real deal here.
Price: Traditional Paithani Saree INR 7,599 onwards.
