In India, the salwar kameez is often referred to as a Punjabi suit because the Punjabis, an Indo-Aryan ethnic group hailing from South Asia initially brought the garment to India. The group established themselves in the Punjab region and before long salwar kameez was accepted among locals as the traditional dress. At this time, the salwar kameez was purely functional rather than fashionable. Made from rough cotton, its primary purpose was to provide protection from the scorching heat of the region.
It wasn’t until the rule of the Mughal Empire – an Islamic imperial power that governed most of South Asia from the 16th century through to the mid-19th century that the salwar kameez began being looked upon as luxurious and a garment that reflected social status – especially in the region now known as India and Pakistan. Gradually, the salwar kameez fabrics, colors, styles and embellishments allowed Indian women to feel privileged.
In fact, many women in India opt to wear the salwar kameez instead of the sari – the other traditional Indian costume – because of its practicality. Although the salwar kameez is still regarded by some as a garment for the lower class and one that should be worn only in the home, many prominent Indian women choose to wear it, rather than the more formal sari, in public. Indeed, wearing a sari doesn’t come naturally to most women; rather, it takes not only a bit of skill to put on but a fair amount of self-confidence to carry off. Despite all this, the salwar kameez has steadily gained in popularity and prestige, due to its comfort, versatility, practicality and increasing luxuriousness.
Indeed, salwar kameez, depending on style and fabric, can be simple or elaborate, which makes this form of dress suitable for both everyday wear and the most fancy of occasions. Fabric choices are extremely varied and suit every budget. For example, cotton and synthetics are typically the least expensive fabrics. In fact, synthetic suits, which are suitable for everyday wear, easily washable and durable, are the least expensive type of salwar kameez. Pricier fabrics include lush materials such as chiffon, georgette, velvet, satin, silk and crepe.
Specifically, georgette is lightweight and usually made of silk while chiffon is a delicate fabric that hugs the body. Alternatively, satin is a smooth, medium-weight fabric while velvet is a soft, heavy fabric suited for the winter months. Women choose fabrics based on season, price and, of course, personal style. Normally, the type and quality of the fabric, along with any embellishments dictate the price.
