Saris from Paris?

Our people have been innovating with textiles. First, there was the reversible sari - contrasting colours on both sides, it is like two different saris. Then, there was the உள்ளே, வெளியே (inside, outside) - fabric that changes colour when outdoors - you may call them photochromatic textiles.

Hoping to outdo Paris fashion is a new line of saris with pockets for cellphones. I strongly believe this is a strong candidate for the awards - a fashion industry equivalent of the Razzies. Given that no two women drape themselves alike, what are the chances of the pocket being at the right place for all women who buy this masterpiece?

Something else seems to be at the wrong place: the brains of the persons who came up with this idea.
