All young girls love to dress up in ghagras or lehengas and with the festive season kicking off, brands have some gorgeous designs in a variety of colours, prints and fabrics.

For kids with autism or intellectual disabilities who can be sensitive to fabrics, we have put together a selection in cotton and cotton silk with no sequins or pokey buttons.

Something that Sumathi Raghu is always looking for Prajakta, her 13-year-old daughter who loves to wear ghagras. Every festive season, they are a must buy.

Prajakta wearing a sleeveless top of red with gold designs and yellow ghagra with bands of navy blue and orange and a border of green and gold.

“Prajju loves to wear ghagras and because she has an intellectual disability, I choose fabrics keeping in mind her sensory needs. She is mostly comfortable in cotton or a cotton-silk mix. I try and avoid ghagras with sequins and anything too pokey in it as it bothers her”.

Here’s Prajakta looking vivid and vibrant in a yellow ghagra with bands of navy blue and orange and a border of green and gold. She is wearing a sleeveless top of red with gold designs.

Natural fabrics are hard to beat for comfort especially in our kind of weather. Here’s a range we have put together for you all under ₹ 1,500.
