It is an important component of the culture of the Bohra tribe and this pink georgette odhani with embroidered borders has such a place in the traditional attire of the Bohra tribe. This textile is so lightweight and with simple and elegant designs, that it tells about the rich cultural identity and craftsmanship skills of the Bohra people who are found in large numbers in Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Maharashtra, and Rajasthan.
The Dawoodi Bohra and the Vohra, the two main communities of the Bohra tribe, have very distinct styles of attire influenced by Islamic and regional Indian cultures. The pink color in the odhani is taken to mean elegance, feminine identity, and cultural legacy, but the embellished border is a proof of their craft in fine needlework and textile adornments. Traditionally, Bohra women would wear their odhani by framing their head and shoulders and treating it as modesty and grace.

They have got flowers and geometric designs, inspired from nature and Islamic art, through embroidery on the odhani, through techniques like zari (gold thread work), gota patti, and resham embroidery. It is an important garment used in festivals, religious occasions, and weddings signifying grace and culture pride. The Bohra Odhani is thus a repository of the textile heritage of this tribe, attesting to the art of heritage embroidery and to the legacy of art in this community
