Mekhela Chador – Wear Your Roots This Bihu
Bihu is the heartbeat of Assam — and no celebration of Bihu is complete without the Mekhela Chador. This iconic two-piece Assamese silk garment, with its graceful cylindrical Mekhela and flowing Chador, is the traditional dress of Bihu dancers and Assamese women across generations. It is a garment that does not merely clothe — it declares identity, celebrates heritage, and carries the joy of the Brahmaputra valley wherever it is worn.
For the Assamese community celebrating Bihu across the UK — in London, Birmingham, Leicester, Manchester, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Leeds, Luton, Slough, Reading, Milton Keynes and Swindon — this Mekhela Chador from Dakshin Vastram brings the spirit of Assam directly to your door.
Made for Bihu, Loved for Every Occasion
- Bihu-Ready Drape: The Mekhela Chador’s fluid silhouette is designed for movement — perfect for Bihu dance performances and cultural programmes.
- Handwoven Assam Silk: Crafted on traditional looms by skilled Assamese weavers, each piece is rich in texture and cultural meaning.
- Traditional Motifs: Woven with classic Assamese patterns — from the iconic Gamosa-inspired borders to nature-inspired flora and fauna motifs.
- Lightweight & Graceful: The silk drapes beautifully in motion, making it ideal for dance, ceremony, and celebration alike.
- A Cultural Statement: Wearing a Mekhela Chador at Bihu in the UK is a powerful act of cultural pride and community belonging.
