Abstract
The sari, the elegant garment worn by Indian and many South Asian women, is associated with many cutaneous signs. With millions of South Asians settled all over the world, it is important for clinicians to be aware of the cutaneous associations of wearing a sari that is tied tightly around the waist with a drawstring. Lichenified linear hyperpigmented grooves, vitiligo, postinflammatory depigmentation, lichen planus and superficial cutaneous infections are some of the conditions seen in women wearing this garment. This review is one of the very few detailed reports of this widely worn garment and its dermatological associations.
