churidar kameez with dupatta Biogarphy
Source(google.com.pk)Churidars (Urdu: چُوڑی دار), (Punjabi: ਚੂੜੀਦਾਰ), or more properly churidar pyjamas (ਚੂੜੀਦਾਰ ਪਜਾਮਾ), are tightly fitting trousers worn by both men and women in South Asia. In Pakistan Churidar is most famous in people of North Indian Origin including Pakistani Punjabis and in people of Karachi who migrated from India in 1947. Churidars are a variant of the common salwar pants. Salwars are cut wide at the top and narrow at the ankle. Churidars narrow more quickly, so that contours of the leg are revealed. They are usually cut on the bias (at a 45-degree angle to the grain of the fabric) which makes them naturally stretchy. Stretch is important when pants are closefitting. They are also longer than the leg and sometimes finish with a tightly fitting buttoned cuff at the ankle. The excess length falls into folds and appears like a set of bangles resting on the ankle (hence 'churidar'; 'churi': bangle, 'dar': like). When the wearer is sitting, the extra material is the "ease" that makes it possible to bend the legs and sit comfortably. The word "churidar" is from Hindi and made its way into English only in the 20th century.[1] Earlier, tight fitting churidar-like pants worn in India were referred to by the British as Moghul breeches, long-drawers, or mosquito drawers.[2]
The churidar is usually worn with a kameez (tunic) by women or a kurta (a loose overshirt) by men, or they can form part of a bodice and skirt ensemble, as seen in the illustration of 19th century Indian women wearing churidar with a bodice and a transparent overskir

For those new to the world of Indian fashion the Anarkali churidar kameez is a three piece outfit consisting of a churidar, a kameez and a dupatta.
show of this outfit lies in the kurta (also known as kameez) which is basically a tunic top. The tunic basically tightens just below the bust – much like an empire waist dress – and flairs down from there on in a seat of pleats. The hemline of the kurta varies from knee length to ankle length. The traditional kurtas were all ankle length. The kurta is usually worn over a pair of tight pants called churidar which resemble full length leggings. Both of this is complimented by a long scarf like material called the dupatta which is usually draped over the kurta.
