It will not be wrong to say that the world history of textiles is incomplete without the mention of Indian textiles. There is a great need to revive the traditional records of textiles by giving captivating grandeur to the Indian textile pieces by introducing innovative designs like Indian monuments on woven materials. Moreover, it can be a better way to preserve the Indian cultural heritage as well as to maintain the value of inimitable Indian textiles. Therefore, the researchers have put forth this innovative idea into practice. It has revolutionized the world of designing by bringing in a change in existing style of designing for woven materials like sarees, kurtis and skirts. The research and related designs can meet the ever changing needs of the customers as they are ethnically trendy and appealing to the fashion world.
