Vegan Sarees, Explained: Sarees Woven from Banana Plants

Most sarees are silk. These are not.

A vegan saree is a saree made with no animal products at all. At JCS Fashions, our vegan sarees are woven from the fiber of the banana plant. In Tamil it is called Vaazhai Naar. The fiber comes from the banana stem, a part of the plant that is normally thrown away after the fruit is picked.

The cloth surprises people. It is light. It breathes in warm weather. And it has a soft shine that looks like silk. Weavers in Tamil Nadu have made these sarees for years. Most of the ones sold online ship from India and take weeks to reach the U.S.

Ours are here. JCS Fashions stocks more than 50 vegan banana fiber sarees in Milpitas, California, priced from $57. Orders ship in days, not weeks. Bay Area shoppers can visit the store and see them in person.

Every vegan saree at JCS is part of our standing Buy 2, Get 1 Free offer — mix and match, and the lowest-priced saree in the basket is free.
