Costumes of Delhi

2008-04-22T22:19:00.000-07:00

India has a very rich heritage in textiles. Here, every state has its unique costume patterns. The traditional costumes of the states of India depend mainly on the natural fibers grown there as well as on the climate of that particular state.
The traditional costumes of Delhi are churidar or salwar kameez for women, and kurtas and pyjamas for men. On formal occasions like marriages, women wear saris whereas men adorn themselves with sherwani or western suits.
