Description
The Bihu dance dress for girls in Assam is a colorful and vibrant ensemble that celebrates the Bihu festival, marking the Assamese New Year and the arrival of spring. It consists of a Mekhela (lower garment) and a Chador (upper garment), both adorned with intricate designs and embroidery. These dresses are made of Assamese silk, like Muga silk, known for its golden sheen. Girls also accessorize with traditional jewelry and often tie their hair in a bun adorned with flowers. The combination of these elements makes the Bihu dance dress a symbol of Assamese culture and tradition, adding grace and authenticity to their energetic performances.
