Utkal · Eastern Coastal Plains
The wardrobe with the strongest hold on this region is not a human one. The Jagannath temple dresses its three wooden deities in a different besha through the year — sandal paste in summer, gold ornament on the chariots at Suna Besha, elephant heads, snake forms, a winter besha of quilted cloth — and each of those changes requires cloth, ornament and flower work commissioned from named households. That demand kept a weaving village, an appliqué town, a sola-pith trade and a filigree quarter in business. Human dress is coastal and light — cotton sari worn without a blouse in older village practice, gamucha over the shoulder, dhoti or lungi — with silk reserved for temple and marriage.
क्या पहना जाता है
A silk ikat woven at Nuapatna and Maniabandha in which verses of the Gita Govinda are worked into the body or border as woven text rather than print. The cloth worn by the deity at Puri comes from these looms, which is the reason the tradition survived intact.
किस मौके पर: Marriage and ritual
Widely worn here and not from here — the tie-dyed bandha weave belongs to the Sambalpur and Bargarh country up the Mahanadi. Its ubiquity on this coast is a distribution fact, not an origin one.
किस मौके पर: Everyday and festival
A short checked cotton towel carried over the shoulder and used for everything — sweat, sun, carrying, sitting on. It is the one garment that has not changed.
किस मौके पर: Everyday
Fabric, gold ornament, sola-pith flowers and painted cloth are made to fixed patterns for each besha, by households holding that right. Because the images are wooden and repainted rather than bathed, the cloth and the ornament do the work of presentation.
किस मौके पर: The temple's daily and seasonal besha calendar
A conical crown of sola pith and flowers worn behind the head-knot, derived from the deity's own floral ornament rather than invented for the stage — one of the clearest points where the dance's temple origin is visible on the body.
किस मौके पर: Performance
बुनाई और कपड़े
Silk tie-and-dye ikat with woven Gita Govinda text, temple and elephant motifs, in a characteristic deep red and dull orange. Registered as a geographical indication.
A heavy handwoven cotton in broad bands, developed as curtain and furnishing cloth rather than as apparel. Registered as a geographical indication and made by a very small number of remaining looms.
Tussar silk woven in the Brahmani belt — this is the Jajpur village of that name, not the beach town on the southern coast. Registered as a geographical indication.
Not a weave but a cut-and-stitch textile — coloured cloth shapes laid onto a ground cloth in lotus, parrot, elephant and creeper forms. Its original product is temple canopy, umbrella and chariot covering, and the domestic market for lampshades and bags came afterwards. Registered as a geographical indication.
