Early Indian literature, speaks of the bhairnivasni, a
skirt like garment, which evolved from the antariya, a
simple tube shaped garment. This was stitched on one
side, gathered and held at the waist by a girdle. Women
wore it as a lower garment. It later evolved into a
skirt with a drawstring called the ghaghri. The ghaghri
was a narrow skirt, made from five and a half meters of
fabric, the same length as the original antariya. The
skirt in India is known by many different names,
depending on the regional style, the most popular, by
far, being the ghaghra. It was the flare that made the
ghaghra such a sumptuous garment and one so captivating
that it was celebrated both in poetry and art. The
ghaghra is really a long skirt, which has the
construction of a simple gathered skirt or a flared
gored skirt. It covers the legs fully or partially,
depending on the norms of propriety among different
ethnic groups, although a long ghaghra usually relates

Indian Clothes as defined in Wikipedia
Lehenga, choli, and odhani
The women of Rajasthan and Gujarat often wear colorful swirling
skirts called lehenga, paired with a short bodice called a choli. If
they must cover their heads, they do so with bright veils called
odhani.
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 or ravika 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.
