Early Life
Mehndi designs are one of the most beautiful forms of body art. Their impermanent character makes us love them even more and it makes one reflect on the passage of time and life if you will.
The main types of mehndi designs are Indian, Arabic and African. Still, some other cultures influence the evolution of today body art. Among them the Persian, Egyptian, Chinese, Celtic, Eastern European and North American are the most prominent along with the modern trends.
Here is the ultimate collection of mehndi designs and they include photos and videos of creations from artists around the world. Enjoy!
This splendid art by the wonderful Henna by Divya features a series of elements that create a complementary design. On the bride’s right hand, the Arabic design features the moon and the stars in a lace like mesh. Several floral elements enhance the beauty of this unique pattern. The lotus flowers inscribed in a triangle denote harmonious beauty, proportion, ascension, illumination and creativity, which is apparent in this outstanding artist’s mehndi design.
As a side note, the triangle is an element found in many cultures and also represents stability (think about mountains), assertion, Shakta. In numerology, the triangle denotes the birth of true wisdom.
This bride from Toronto Canada wanted to include a few landmarks of the beautiful city: CN Tower, Rogers Centre and part of the Toronto skyline. Maybe the most important element in this mehendi design is the bride’s dog she will surely miss upon embarking onto her new life as a married woman
