Product Description
Like many other apparel art and design, the salwar kameez or salwar kurta too is a gift to the Indian traditional wear by the Mughals. In their custom, both men and women enjoyed this apparel, cut in long flowing panels. Elaborately embroidered with real gold and silver threads, studded with precious gemstones, those Mughal kurtas weighed nothing less than 5 to 10 kilograms. As time passed, the modifications were made according to the comfort and affordability of the people. Though the source of inspiration remains the same old Mughal fashion, many changes are seen in todays style of salwar kurta. It is the primary womens apparel among the north Indians. However, its comfort and easy to maintain qualities has made it universally popular. They are worn in both winters and summers. The material for the summer and winter salwar kameez changes suiting the weather conditions. Summer welcomes crisp and light cottons, while winter gives way to all heavy and thick materials. At present, the most popular style of salwar kurta for women is the A line cut style, which gives a good shape and comfort to the body. The style popular among men is the straight cut with side pockets. The prints commonly seen on this apparel in India are block print and tie and dye of Rajasthan and Gujarat. The hand embroidered chikankari style of Lucknow is also very popular for its traditionally rich look and values. The winter kurtas are in silk, satin, and other thick materials.

India Clothing Salwar Kameez Tie Dye Print Embroidery Cotton Womens Dresses Size M (slk064)
While sari is kind of a national dress for women in India, it is salwar kameez that is more popular among women here. Easy to wear and loose fit comfort makes salwar kameez the dress of choice, particularly among women in the age group of 25-50. Besides, ShalinCraft Salwar Kameez are handmade in cotton with hand embroidery and appliques, making it authentic ethnic wear.
