Bandhani or Bandhej hails from the states of Gujarat and Rajasthan, though the style may differ as the artisans who indulge in this unique art of tie and dye, have their individual ways of tying the cloth and creating those exclusive and unique patterns that endears this art form to us. Though these states have arid backgrounds but the brightness of the tie and dye clothes have given them a very colourful look.
History of bandhej dates back to some five thousand years ago when it was practiced in ancient India by the Khatri community of Gujarat. The first Bandhini Saree was believed to be worn at the time of Bana Bhatt’s Harshacharita. Since then there has been no looking back. This skill has been honed from generation to generation and many new patterns have been created by tying the cloth into tiny bindings and then dyeing the cloth. When the bindings are opened, a beautiful design adorns fabric and a newly patterned saree is born.
Though tie and dye has its roots in Gujarat and Rajasthan, it has long ago crossed the barriers of state or regions and has gained a global status. Be it any occasion, Bandhej Sarees never fail to impress. They are available now in variety of fabrics in the most traditional patterns as well as the new modern and innovative ones. Silk, Georgette, Chiffon, Crepe or Cotton, Bandhani looks good in any variety. No woman’s wardrobe can be said to be complete without a Bandhej Saree. India’s ace designers have used this traditional wear in such an innovative and novel manner that it is no denying that one sees a new face of this beautiful creation.
