For Mamata Banerjee, the Chief Minister of West Bengal, her signature white saree with a blue border has become a part of her personal brand. She has made this look a political statement, embodying simplicity and strength. In 2018, Mamata wore this iconic saree to Isha Ambani’s wedding, confidently breaking the dress code with her unpretentious style. Paired with her comfortable flip-flops, the dhaniakhali weave, famously known as the ‘Mamata saree,’ became a symbol of her grounded yet fierce political presence, recognized across India.
