Also known as reverse negative space mehndi design, this technique entails creating the outline of a particular design and then the design is highlighted by filling the usual empty spaces. The style is perfect for brides who want to flaunt a bold use of colour on their big day. From classic to contemporary, the sky is your limit when it comes to motifs. Be it paisleys, peonies, penguins or peacocks, you can make your mehndi as personalised as you desire.
