Indian clothing throughout history varies widely by region, culture, religion and climate. Saris and the salwar kameez--a unisex outfit consisting of loose trousers and a tunic--are traditional attire for Indian women. Indian men traditionally wear the lungi, dhoti or kurta. While European styles frequently appear in large Indian cities like Mumbai, many Indians hold to traditional clothes.

History and Politics
Traditional Indian attire took on political significance during India's struggle for independence from British rule during the first half of the 20th century. Mohandas Gandhi famously wore the traditional Indian dhoti and shawl. The dhoti is rectangular strip of cloth about 7 yards long. Men wear the dhoti wrapped and knotted around their legs and waists.
A simple yet versatile garment, the saree or sari is a distinct and stylish fashion identity of India, taking the pride of place in every Indian woman’s wardrobe. From the classic to the modern, the saree is the favorite apparel in India.

Sarees from india

Sarees from India - Eternal Symbol of Femininity

 A saree (or sari) is a traditional Indian garment, worn in different styles across the country. Sarees from India have always epitomized the country’s culture and date back to the Indus Valley Civilization. The saree is draped by women from all strata of the society and ranges from daily wear to a fashion statement. Sarees from India are available in many different designs and almost every state in the country has a typical and unique style - from the Kanjivaram in Tamil Nadu to the Banarasi in Uttar Pradesh, from the Paithani in Maharashtra to the Ikkat in Orissa. Sarees have traditionally been made from silk or cotton. Sarees from India may be hand-woven or block-printed, and be embellished with gold or silver thread (also known as zari) or with precious stones or crystals. Stepping into a saree shop is like entering a wonderland of colors, designs and fabrics.
Designer Sari - Modern Twist to Tradition
In the recent past, the traditional sari had made way for the comfortable salwar-kameez combination and western clothes, especially among young Indian women. However, it has had a revival lately, with the advent of the designer sari. Usually made from lighter (and manageable) fabrics such as crepe, chiffon and georgette, the designer sari is a bolder statement with strong colors and abstract prints. The traditional sari has been updated by well-known Indian designers such as Tarun Tahiliani and Satya Paul as well by international fashion houses such as Hermes and Louis Vuitton, leaving the fashionista spoiled for choice.
Bridal Sari - Timeless Classic
The most important part of an Indian bride’s trousseau is the bridal sari. Indian weddings usually are elaborate multi-day affairs, with many different rituals and functions and each one demands a new sari. A bridal sari is a traditional one, usually made of silk, with heavy embroidery or embellishments and in a vibrant color, red being the most popular. Each region has its own unique type of sari and the bride generally wears her native, traditional design and style. An indispensable part of an Indian wedding, the sari gives an elegant aura to the bride on her special day.Photo Source : flickr.com/Worldizen
While designers admit that fashion forecasting is an important part of the fashion industry in the West, it is not quite possible to practice it in India, a country that has diverse cultures and peoples.

"We know Western designers may be already planning for Fall-Winter 2005. That is possible because they follow trends. In India, the fashion industry does not follow trends as the designs depend on a number of factors like the varying cultures and even differing climate experienced in various parts of the country," says designer Krishna Mehta.

Designing for niche segments has also not quite arrived in India, feel designers. "Maternity design may be in in the West, but in India it is still a grey area," says young designer Priyadarshini Rao. "Economics plays a major role in India, and most are into wearing 'punjabi' during pregnancy. So it is difficult for designers to go for such a range," says Mehta.

"How often is a lady going to get pregnant?" chips in Rao, who feels that this factor acts on the minds of buyers and makes it difficult for designers, already struggling to make a mark, to design for such niche segments. Designers also feel that developing biotextiles involves very high technology which again may prove to be very expensive in India.

"While a designer should keep an eye on the world, he should develop his own identity as there could be a scenario where the India market could be flooded with cheap imports. Indian designers should focus on the new niches opening up," feels Rathore.
