Desi Chic for Gentlemen

Fashion is a style of living in coarser terms. It is relatively superficial, and it largely changes with . The dress styles are always in a flexible state, and before one fashion sets a standard another pushes it out. Fashion in India is a vibrant scene. Indian clothing is renowned throughout the world, for its ethnic wears, depicting the exuberance of cultural heritage. The one aspect of Indian culture that is of interest is – Traditional clothing, which is considered as unique and exclusive. Among men the fashion trend does not remain confined to smartness only. Indian men today wear more conventional clothing. Just like Indian dressing for women, there are different types of male attires. Read below the different types of traditional attire for men in India:

Dhoti

A masculine version of sari- Unstitched fabric, usually five yards of length wrapped around waist and legs, knotting it around the waist. Sometimes wrapped around with the help of belt, (ornamental or embroidered) around the waist. 

Kurta

Generally refer to as loose shirt or male tunic, the length of which falls below or may be just above the knees of the wearer.  It has become a style mark for Indian men. The Dhoti Kurta or Kurta Pajama (loose like trousers with a string tie at the waist which is traditionally white in color), can be coupled together to give an exquisite look. 

Lungi

Another important part of Indian traditional attire. Looking like a cross between a bed sheet and a towel, lungis are a type of wrap-around garment worn around the waist. It is a casual version of popular bottom dress in South India. While many would think that the lungi is a type of informal wear, it is not so in many parts of India.

Sherwani
