Traditional wear.

The traditional dress may be defined as the ensemble of garments, jewelry, and accessories rooted in the past that is worn by an identifiable group of people. Though slight changes over time in color, form and material are acknowledged, the assemblage seems to be handed down unchanged from the past.

Many Bollywood actresses have worn Banarasi sarees on significant occasions owing to the finesse with which it is crafted.


                                     Salwar Kameez




Salwar Kameez is to Indian fashion what rice is to Indian food – a staple; or, it has become so over the years. The traditional salwar kameez, as the name goes, is a standard set of a top, bottom, and a dupatta. But, these have taken many forms over the years, and we will talk about that in a minute. The traditional salwar kameez is something the average Indian woman spends most of her life in. Designers are doing a splendid job in taking the salwar suits to the next level; so, you can never have too many of these.


                                    Patiala Suits




Indians love all things Patiala, if you know what I mean. The Patiala pants are a wider and cooler variation of your regular bottoms. These have more definition because of their pleats that give your outfit a fuller feel. It looks especially great on tall women. Nevertheless, Patiala suits are evergreen, and thus we all need these in our closets.


                                             Kurta




Kurtas to the modern Indian women are go-to formal dresses. Even when you are not in a mood to suit up for a meeting, wear a block printed kurta and pair it with jhumkas and pumps – you’ve got yourself a chic boho look in minutes. From teenagers to middle and old aged women, kurtas are what we all prefer because we have gotten over the fact that we need a dupatta every time we wear an Indian dress.

                                        

                                         Palazzo Suits




Palazzos will be one of those things I will really be thankful to God for. Gone are the days when we survived on leggings – palazzos have come and taken over the shelves. You can wear any kurta with palazzo pants to look stylish, or ditch the boring old salwar suits and go for palazzo suits. You can also go Indo-Western by matching your palazzo pants with a short top or even a T-shirt and finish the look with chunky accessories.
