Hi Vimala......Traditional dress in India greatly varies across the regions in its colours and styles, and depends on various factors, including climate. The traditional sari and the salwar kameez are popular styles of dress for women. Different regions have different styles of wrapping the sari. The salwar kameez is most common in the northwestern part of India. While, the women of Rajasthan and Gujarat often wear colorful swirling skirts called lehenga, paired with a short bodice called a choli. They cover their heads with bright veils called ordhani. Tribal women typically don their own unique costumes. The most common male attire consists of the dhoti and kurta, worn in most of the western and central regions. A sherwani is typically worn for special occasions. The lungi a type of wrap-around for men and is worn in many parts of India. As with women s clothing, jeans and other types of Western-wear are very common in the major metropolises
