The word Kasavu actually means the zari used in the border of this saree. You'll see a traditional Kasavu saree off white in colour with beautiful gold border.  Kasavu is really the material used to make this saree and in the same way, when the material is used to make Mundu (dhoti) for men, it is called Kasavu Mundu. In Kerala, traditional attire like saree, mundu (dhoti) and setu mundu (a two-piece saree) are commonly called kathari, i.e. handlooms. They are extremely popular in the state and on Onam people tend to revisit their traditions by wearing the attires. White Kerala sarees that have a coloured Casu border in place of gold are called Kara. Here are some ways you can style your traditional look on Onam:
