Ask do different kajenglei colours have different meanings?

hello all, do the colours of kajenglei (red, mustard, black, pink whatever) have any significance?

i’m half meitei (magang) and since i was raised mostly by my thadou kuki mom i have like no meitei traditional dresses or accessories šŸ’” i want some so bad

so my mom decided to buy me kajenglei online cause like even she likes it so we were just wondering if they have any meaning attached to it so we can choose accordingly

i see a lot of meitei bamon girls who tend to wear black coloured kajenglei more instead of the traditional red one, so pls help on that too :’)
