What is a Leheriya Saree?
True to its name, the Leheriya Saree is known for its wave-like patterns dyed in bright, beautiful colors. This traditional Rajasthani art form uses a unique resist dyeing technique to create ripple-like diagonal stripes, often in rainbow hues.
Each Leheriya Saree is handcrafted, ensuring no two pieces are ever the same. At YUVTI by Bhupendra Singh, these sarees are more than just garments—they are a celebration of color, culture, and craftsmanship.
The Origin and Cultural Heritage of Leheriya
It was traditionally worn during the monsoon season as the wavy patterns symbolized flowing water and good fortune.
The process involves tying sections of the fabric tightly and dyeing it in multiple stages, resulting in distinct wavy lines. At YUVTI by Bhupendra Singh, we work closely with local artisans to keep this tradition alive.
