Evening Dresses
A woman’s Kaftan shown above is a cotton cloak, with
full sleeves, reaching to the ankles and worn with a
sash. Caftans are sometimes also called as Kaftans.
Gujarati
Kaftans are often embroidered on the front and
on the sleeves. Gujrati also love to make it in multi
color, through applique work or patchwork of different
color fabrics. The colors preferred in India are in
shades of maroon, green and blue.
Women wear it as evening gown dress. It is also
preferred
maternity dress as well as plus size dress.
Sometimes these caftans are also referred to as robe or
tunic.

• “I received my order on Friday, 18 June. The kaftans are lovely;
just a bit long in sleeves and length. My fault as I should have
mentioned my height in special instructions. How should I wash the
garments? Or should they be dry cleaned? And thank you for the gift
of tigers-eye earrings!"

searching for something beautiful to wear to my daughter's wedding in
August, as well as looking for an additional six or seven lightweight
dresses for the summer"
Indian Clothes as defined in

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.
