India has patronized the sari as its national dress from time immemorial. From the period of Lord Krishna, the gopis have been known to be wearing sarees during raaslila. However, during 1000-1500 A.D when India was facing an array of invasions from all directions it became important for the Indian women to cover themselves more than what the one piece sari did. A fuller skirt called lehnga, a piece of cloth to cover her head called orhini, and cloth tied on her bosom called choli, became a more appropriate costume to cover the Indian beauty.
Initially the lehnga was merely a piece of cloth tied around the waist in a pleated fashion with the ends of the cloth left loose. The cloth was held at the waist with a metal girdle. But soon with the increase in its popularity, the garment went through fruitful transitions to suit the convenience of the women. The ends of the waist cloth were stitched. To make it more comfortable, its narrow width was increased by introducing more pleats on the waist, so as to facilitate easy walking for the women. The metal girdle was replaced by stitching a peace of cloth to the waist of the lehnga called nepha and a piece of tape running through it called nara.
The lehnga reached its peak of development under the Mughal kings. It was the best answer the Indian queens could give to the rich Muslim pehsvaz dress of the Mughal royal women. The interaction between the two communities was further increased by the bazaars organized by the Mughal kings where both the sellers and the buyers were women. The dupatta (the Hindustani name given to the orhni by the Indian Muslim women) became almost a mark of respect for the women. It was mostly two and a half yards in length and one and a half yards in breadth. It was used as a headdress and also to increase the beauty of the lehnga. Mostly the dupatta was made of a flimsy material and to give some more weight to the cloth, golden lace or tassels were attached to the ends. The choli was also developed the cover the arms but the length, however, usually remained above the navel, revealing the slim waist of the women.
Through history, the lehnga has undergone very little change. In fact even today leading manufacturers do not fail to steal traditional patterns form the golden Mughal era. The ensemble still comprises a traditional long skirt, the choli and the dupatta. The fabrics used to make the lehnga are in fact the same as those used under the great Mughal King, Akbar i.e. silks and brocades.
