Kasavu Mundu and Kasavu Neryathu, are extremely light pure cotton
handlooms edged with golden thread. The golden edging is sometimes
touched with contrasting bright colours. They are worn as traditional
saris or used as dress material.
A Malayalee (Keralite) woman wearing the mundu and neryathu, with
her long black oiled hair tied loosely and strung with a garland of
Jasmine, is the very picture of elegance. She hardly uses any facial
make-up other than the bindi on the forehead and kajal on her eyes,
not to mention the gold ornaments which are her passion. The combination
is unique to this land and gives an attractive but natural look. The
men wear the mundu around the loin and the neryathu around the shoulders.
