Crepe Sasrees

Holding sway among women in India is a preference for crepe sarees. For what it is worth, the longest sari in the world is made out of crepe.

That is, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, which recognizes an embroidered hand-printed crepe saree as the longest.

Crepe is woven of hard-spun Mulberry silk yarn in its naturally occurring condition. It is the product of 2-ply twisted yarn of 's' and 'z' twist, then woven on power loom.
