Made with colourful pieces of cotton scarfs bestrewn in silk and zari, the Mysore ‘peta’ (turban) is a classic headgear that draws its roots from the erstwhile emperors of Mysore, called Wodeyars. Many political bigwigs are also seen sporting the headgear during election rallies and other ceremonial events. Bridegrooms in the southern parts of Karnataka adorn petas as a sign of respect during their weddings. A traditional attire for males is incomplete without Mysore petas.
