The traditional costume of women in Maharashtra is a nine-yard long saree, hence called Nauwari (Nau=9 & war=yard).The other popular name for this saree is Lugade. A Nauwari  saree resembles male trousers. Saree is essentially Indian and designed to suit local conditions.This specific style of draping does not require a petticoat or a slip beneath it.
The Nauwari Saree has a historical background.During the Maratha rule, women were entrusted with the grave responsibility of helping their male partners, at emergency period of wars.To facilitate easy movement, the Maharashtrian women then introduced the Nauwari Saree.Thus, such a costume reminds of the caliber of women to equal men even in difficult art of warfare.It is thus obvious that the brave air, associated with Maharashtrian women, found their epitome in the outstandingly courageous, Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi. Lakshmibai, had the guts to assert the cause of her motherland against the British, during the Revolt of 1857.Thus, the Nauwari sari, drives home the essential truth, that the traditional motherly figure of womanhood, can become the protector of good when required.
