This crimson ghaghra is an exquisitely crafted piece of apparel from the Bhil woman and symbolizes the symbolic culture of the Bhil tribe. It is a blue waistband and a pleated design highlighting the simplicity and originality of the Bhil, who are regarded as one of India's most considerable indigenous tribes primarily located in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Maharashtra. Bhil women wear bright ghagras, embroidered blouses, and odhnis (headscarves). This red ghagra stands for liveliness, energy, and cultural identity, while the sweet folds of pleats permit free movement in folk dances such as Ghummar and Bhagoria, which are celebrated in festivals and social gathering.The blue waistband enhances the decorative value of the ghagra by holding the pleated skirt together.

The Bhil, the erstwhile warrior tribe, carry deep in their traditions the art of weaving and stitching. Preferably, dyes sourced from nature are employed while working with locally available raw materials. Another criterion on which their clothing is assessed is practical needs and aesthetically pleasing designs, which permit survival in the extreme climatic conditions prevailing in their respective habitats. The Bhil wedding life dress is thus an emblem of the tribal life, craftsmanship, and cultural continuance aimed at keeping the traditional skills of the tribe alive for posterity.
