Mehndi Collection

Mehndi day means sitting still for hours with your hands out of use, and the outfit needs to cooperate.

Sleeves, weight and colour

Short sleeves, or sleeves that push up easily, matter more than embroidery on a mehndi outfit. Lighter cottons, georgettes and mul fabrics keep you comfortable through a long daytime function. Yellows, greens, oranges and pastels lead the palette, with mirror and gota work rather than heavy zari.

What this page carries

Sharara and palazzo suits, lightweight lehengas, kurta sets and cotton silk sarees for women. Printed kurta and bandi sets for men. Simple coordinated ethnic sets for children. Everything selected for daytime wear rather than evening formality.

Bride versus guest

Brides usually wear yellow or green with mirror work and a lighter dupatta that can be moved aside while the henna is applied. Guests have more colour freedom but should still keep the sleeves practical, since they will be eating and helping through the afternoon.

Stains are a real risk

Henna and turmeric both mark fabric. Printed and mid tone pieces hide accidents better than pale solid silks, which is worth remembering before choosing an ivory outfit for this particular function.

Jewellery for a mehndi

Hands are occupied, so bangles and rings are out until the henna dries. Jhumkas, a maang tikka and a light neckpiece do the work instead. Floral jewellery has become the standard for mehndi functions, photographs well against yellows and greens, and will not snag on wet henna.

Sizes span children through adult plus fits, with measurements listed in inches on every product page. Customisable stitching is offered on selected styles at the size selector. Order in time for one adjustment to reach you before the function.
