Many Punjabis believe in show and pomp and Punjabi ladies are
extremely fashionable compared to other women in India. Other than that, they
are also hard-working. This is why Punjabi women love dressing up in their
favorite outfit called the Salwar Kameez.
Salwars were brought into India by the initial Muslim Invaders and later
embraced by the Mughals who added a completely different touch to it.
How the Salwar Kameez
first Came into Being
In the beginning, Salwar was worn just in the Punjab region of North
India. Particularly the portion lying in present-day Pakistan. This regional
outfit was worn by both the men and the women in their own style and the cut
used to be entirely different from each other.
More than that, the styles of Salwar Kameez from Punjab are entirely
different than that of Baluchistan and Afghanistan. Women from these regions
were not accustomed to wearing the Punjabi Salwar suit.
These suits were first worn by women in the 11th century B.C. It
emerged as a mainstream fashion garment in the 1980s to early 21st century.
Where it was worn on every street not only in India but also by many in London
and Paris.
The Craze for Salwar Kameez
Across India
Suits are worn by women across all ethnic lines in India. It doesn’t
matter, whether it originated from Pakistan and is more common in the northern
states of Punjab and Himachal Pradesh. Salwar Kameez has won over the hearts of
Indians all around the world and is a top favorite in Eastern, Western and
Southern India as well. It is fashionable as well as a modest form of dressing
that looks drop-dead gorgeous on grownup ladies. Even little girls in different
parts of India love wearing a Salwar Kameez because of the charm and style
exuded by it.
Benefits of Wearing a Salwar Kameez
A Salwar Kameez comes along with an umpteen number of benefits. Apart
from being the traditional dress of Punjab, a Salwar Kameez is extremely
gracious and is suitable for both formal outings as well as everyday work with
the difference being in the cut, style, and material.
It also provides options to the fashion-conscious to get it customized
with changes to suit their taste. Also, India is a traditionally conservative
society that wants its ladies and gentlemen to present themselves in a very
sophisticated manner. While other dresses do not offer the same freedom, with
salwar kameez women can easily sit or stand up in a relaxed manner without the
fear of their body parts being exposed or visible.
Salwar Kameez Creates a
Sense of Belonging
One of the major reasons why Indian ladies love to wear Salwar Kameez
is the fact that the outfit creates a sense of belonging amongst all Indian
women because the same outfit is worn by most women starting from the lowest
strata to the highest echelons of civil society with the only difference being
the quality of the material used and the work done on the suit. Based on the work,
size, etc the price of a Salwar Kameez keeps altering.
Salwar Kameez look good on individuals with all kinds of body weight
and shape. They are most convenient to be worn to the office as well. In spite
of Indians from different states having different traditional dresses and
dressing styles, they all prefer salwar suits
more than any other dress.
