Rangriti (Bandhani / lehariya)

Bandhani, also called bandhnu, is a type of tie-dye which involves plucking the cloth with the fingernails into many tiny bindings that form a sort of resist-dyeing. The areas wrapped around the thread then resist being dyed, leaving behind dots, rings, or waves. The result is a texture and colour effect that cannot be replicated by machine printing, which is what makes a genuine Bandhani piece worth owning.

As compared to fast-fashion printed ones that start to lose character and become flat over time, Bandhani does not wear out its charm. Bandhani is a material that gets better with time as it belongs to you.

Bandhani Suit Set - A Classic That Still Works

The bandhani suit set is the most versatile piece in this collection. It pairs a Bandhani kurta with a matching bottom and dupatta - a combination that works across different body types and occasions.

At Mirayaz, the suits are designed keeping practical wearability in mind. The tailoring is crisp, the fittings are perfect, and the colours are experimented with, blending hues of deep blues and subtle greens so that they naturally suit the Indian skin tones. So when it is for attending any puja, a family lunch, a daytime wedding ceremony, a well- fitted Bandhani suit set is the ultimate answer.

Bandhani Palazzo Set – Easy & Elegant 

For women who want ease of movement without giving up on traditional wear, the bandhani palazzo set is a practical choice. The wide-leg palazzo paired with a Bandhani top offers airflow and comfort - something that matters greatly in warmer months or during long event days.

The Mitali Bandhani Palazzo Set from this collection features intricate handwork detailing on the top, along with a Bandhani palazzo that gives the outfit structure and depth. It is the kind of set that reads as put-together without being fussy.

Palazzo sets also photograph well, given the way the fabric drapes and moves - a small but real consideration for anyone attending weddings or festive occasions.

Bandhani Set - The Everyday and The Occasion

The broader bandhani set category in the Rangriti Collection includes a range of silhouettes - from sharara sets to coordinated pairs - all built on the same core fabric work. Mirayaz has taken care to present Bandhani in combinations that feel current without losing their connection to the original craft.

The Banno Bandhani Sharara Set, crafted in chiffon with subtle handwork, is one such example. Chiffon carries Bandhani dye particularly well - the lightness of the fabric lets the dot patterns breathe and gives the outfit a fluid quality when worn.

The pricing across the Bandhani sets in this collection runs from approximately ₹3,995 to ₹5,995, which places them in an accessible range for handcrafted ethnic wear.

Bandhani Anarkali Set - A Silhouette With Presence

The bandhani anarkali set is where craft meets silhouette most fully. The anarkali silhouette of an Indian anarkali dress comprises a long, flowing kurta and slim-fit trousers or churidar along with a dupatta, and has been one of the most loved and wearable styles in ethnic fashion.

But when that form is rendered in Bandhani, there's a richness that can’t be just visually experienced- it has to be culturally internalized. The Saanjh Bandhani Anarkali Set, done in Bandhani green with mirror lace detailing, is a good example of this balance. The Raag Bandhani Anarkali Set, in rich blue, is another handcrafted set paired with complementary bottoms to complete the look.

Several sets in this category also feature the Angrakha neckline - a wrap-style front that adds definition to the upper body while staying true to traditional Indian tailoring. Pieces like the Janhvi and Anushka Anarkali Sets use this cut with tissue Bandhani fabric, giving them a slightly more formal finish suitable for wedding functions or festival evenings.
