What is "lugade"

A "Lugade" is a nine yard Maratha sari. This nine yard sari is generally worn by elderly Hindu women and is sometimes referred to as Nauvaree in Marathi. It is usually between forty-two and forty-five inches in width, and has two lengthwise borders called kanth or kinar. It also has two breadthwise borders called padar, of which one is more decorated than the other.
