Jaipur has a vast collection of block printed and tie & dye fabric and is well known for its textile industry. From Sanganer and Bagru block printing to bandhej, pachranga and leheriya, you have a wide range to choose from.

These handmade prints look stunning and offer a classic look. Safas (turbans), saris odhnis, lehanga choli, dupatta (ladies traditional garments) and mantles are amongst the many clothing types on hand in Jaipur. These traditional fabrics have even become a trend for fashion designers worldwide.

The Bandhani and Leheria are two tie-and-dye methods which are popular in Jaipur.

For Bandhani, the fabric is tied into minute knots to form a design and then dipped into the dye. The fabrics are tied into small knots using threads and are dipped into an array of beautiful colors. After dyeing these knotted parts remain uncolored creating different designs and patterns.

The popular patterns are mothda, the chequered design, lahariya, the diagonal strips, shakari, the human and animal figures and ekdali, the design of small circles and squares. The main colours used in Bandhani are yellow, green, red and black. The fabric is skillfully knotted by the women, while the portfolio of dyeing rests with the men.

Kishanpol Bazaar is the famous market of the city known for textiles Running parallel to Baba Harish Chandra Marg and Chaura Rasta, this bazaar is a special place to buy Bandhani textiles. Saris and textiles of various descriptions are in good supply at Jaipur's Bapu Bazaar and Johri Bazaar.
