Lehariya: Wavy, Vibrant, Women...


‘Lehariya’ is a famous style of printing. This print is distinct because of its ripple effect. It is a pattern in which diagonal wavy stripes are formed by the fold-resist dyeing technique called Lehariya. Lehariya sarees, ghaghra and salwar kameez are very famous among the rajasthani women. As the monsoon arrives, lehariya takes over every part of the life of Rajasthanis. Dresses with lehariya print are mostly worn on Teej festival. It is the essence of the Rajputi dress. Apart from the sarees and ghaghras worn by ladies, the ‘pagri’ (turban) with lehariya print is famous among the men. Lehariya generally comes in contrasting color combinations. Color combinations like pink and purple, red and yellow are some of the most liked combinations. Combination of yellow and green is famous with the name of ‘Nimbu-Mirchi’. The white waves in a bright color like pink, orange, magenta makes the dress material more graceful.
