"Mekhela sador is type of Saree comprising two pieces of cloth, draped on the top and bottom, which is the traditional attire worn by the women of Assam.
The mekhela is folded into pleats to the right around the waist and is tucked in. The sador, on the other hand, is tucked into the mekhela’s upper portion at one end and the other end is draped around the upper portion of the body, like a pallu . These days a fitted blouse is worn, unlike earlier times when
another piece of cloth known as the riha used to be worn."
