The clothing and accessories category is the centrepiece of Amazon’s Fashion store. All sellers must complete an application to apply in the Clothing & Accessories category. While you can sell as many sarees as you want online, all you need is an approval from Amazon. Your product titles, descriptions and other information (including images) must adhere to standards listed in the Clothing & Accessories style guide. During the application process, you will need to provide:

Apart from this, sellers in the clothing & accessories category must maintain the high standards that customers expect. For example, images need to be formatted consistently so customers can easily compare colour and texture of sarees.
