1️⃣ Boho Defined: Natural Textures & Free‑Flowing Vibes
A true Boho Parandi is crafted with:
-
Earthy details: shells, brass bells, wooden beads, and pom‑poms
-
Boho-hued palettes: pastel ombré, mustard, forest green, multicolor options
-
Lightweight, textured threads that move and sway beautifully
These elements combine to create a carefree accessory perfect for beach days, casual outings, or ethnic pairings.
2️⃣ Punjabi Roots: A Heritage Re‑imagined
While modern in aesthetic, the Boho Parandi retains its cultural DNA. Originally used by women in Patiala, Parandis adorned braids beneath dupattas and became integral to Punjabi weddings and dances like Giddha and Bhangra. Wikipedia
