coat. A dress covers the whole body of a woman from the

distinctive clothing for they are recommended to dress
in modest clothing, without attracting attention to
oneself. Colorful, roomy, elegant yet casual, they are
useful and attractive for both lounging at home as well
as for elegant wear. Popular with both young and old,
and especially with the plus sized woman, the kaftan is
an extremely popular wear today. They are also called a
muumuu, jilbab or simply housedress. Historically, the
kaftan is a mans cotton or silk cloak buttoned down the
front, with full sleeves, reaching to the ankles. It was
the traditional wear in the Eastern Mediterranean.
Women wear it as evening gown dress. It is also prefered

of tigers-eye earrings!"

Sari
A sari / saree is the traditional female garment in
India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka. A sari
is a very long strip of unstitched cloth, ranging from
four to nine metres in length, which can be draped in
various styles. The most common style is for the sari to
be wrapped around the waist, with one end then draped
over the shoulder baring the midriff. The sari is
usually worn over a petticoat (pavada/pavadai in the
south, and shaya in eastern India), with a blouse known
as a choli forming the upper garment. The
choli has short sleeves and a low neck and is usually
cropped, and as such is particularly well-suited for
wear in the sultry South Asian summers. Cholis may be
"backless" or of a halter neck style. These are usually
more dressy with a lot of embellishments such as mirrors
or embroidery and may be worn on special occasions.Women
in the armed forces, when wearing a sari uniform, don a
half-sleeve shirt tucked in at the waist.
Salwar kameez and dupatta
The salwar kameez is another form of popular dress for
females. It consists of loose trousers (the salwar)
topped by a long loose shirt (the kameez). It originates
from the state of Punjab in India, but now has become
popular all across India, and other South Asian
countries. It is commonly worn with a narrow scarf
called a dupatta, which can be used to cover the head,
or just draped over the shoulders. The salwar kameez is
most common in the northwestern part of India.
