What We Love About The Bandhej Look:
The bandhej look has motifs in tie and dye. The patterns emulate flora and fauna, bells, jaals, creepers and mythological scenes too. Each dot and knot on the bandhej saree has a name for it, for example the ekdali, or one knot! The three knotted dotted bandhej sari is called the trikunti and the four knotted ones would be the chaubundi.
