Indian Women Fashion

Indian women fashion Salwar kameez dress.


Salwar kameez (also spelled shalwar kameez or shalwar qameez) is a traditional dress worn by both women and men in Southern Asia. Salvars or shalvars are loose pajama-like trousers. The legs are wide at the top, and narrow at the bottom. The kameez is a long shirt or tunic. The side seams are left open below the waist-line, which gives the wearer greater freedom of movement. In India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Pakistan and Afghanistan, it is most commonly a woman's garment, albeit still worn by some men.

Iran fashion

Iranian designers fuse international and European fashion with traditional Iranian styles, breathing new life into Islamic fashion in Iran.
At a rare official fashion show in the country's capital, Tehran, designers took the opportunity to display some colourful and vibrant Islamic costumes which are not only in line with Islamic codes, but also current fashion trends.

While not exactly trying to put the chic into chador, Iranian fashion designer Haniyeh Abedi believes that the strict Islamic dress code requiring women to be covered from head to toe does not mean they cannot look good.
