Post by: Raman Preet

Rajasthan, celebrated for its expansive deserts, majestic palaces, and thriving textile industry, stands as India's textile hub, renowned for crafting exquisite couture prints and fabrics. Among its notable creations, traditional Rajasthani saris like bandhani prints, gotta patti, and more have become quintessential elements in every Rajasthani woman’s wardrobe.

Bandhani, also known as Bandej, showcases the intricate tie and dye method, where saris are meticulously tied with threads before being dyed to create various patterns and motifs. The term 'bandhani' derives from the Sanskrit word ‘bandh,’ meaning ‘to tie.’ These saris, characterized by their flowy and lightweight nature, effortlessly exude elegance and comfort, suitable for any occasion.

Leheriya saris are distinguished by their criss-cross patterned stripes, available in a range of fabrics such as chiffon, cotton, georgette, and crepe. Known for their lightweight and smooth texture, they are ideal choices for Rajasthan's scorching summers and are favored during festive seasons for their vibrant hues and distinctive linear patterns.

Gota Patti saris, a staple in every Rajasthani bride’s trousseau, boast elaborate designs featuring colorful threads, mirror work, and intricate patterns. Despite their ornate appearance, these saris are remarkably lightweight, making them perfect for weddings and festivals.

Block Print saris, popular not only in Rajasthan but also across the country, are crafted using hand block printing techniques on cotton fabrics with natural colors. Jaipur, particularly renowned for its block print tradition, offers signature styles like Sanganeri and Bagru prints, known for their lightweight and versatile appeal suitable for daily wear.

Kota Doria, or Kota saris, are handwoven creations incorporating a blend of golden zari, silk, cotton, and silver threads sourced from various regions like Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Karnataka. Adorned with a chic and lustrous finish, Kota saris are cherished additions to Rajasthani weddings and gatherings, epitomizing timeless elegance and grace.
