Shalwar kameez is indeed an indian and pakistani creation, BUT the difference is the style! In India, long kameez's to the ankles are unheard of. Btw I am Indian and have been to India (U.P) recently to visit family (I live in London). I wore all my pakistani clothes and everyone was looking at me in India and commenting that they had never seen a kameez so long and it was impossible to find a kameez/frock that long in India. Hence the long kameez style is a pakistani trend and it looks like its catching on in India now. I only buy pakistani suits as the styles are amazing and are gorgeous to wear.
My indian family loved my clothes so much they are now asking the tailors there to sew pakistani style long kameez's! So its going to catch on I think.
.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How its possible.i mean i am from indian punjab.when was in school fashion was really long and loose kameez with salwaar.When grown up and in colleage it was short and skin tight shirt with pataila salwaar, short loose shirt with pajama kind bottom,little later tight shirta with churidar and now long and big anarkalis with churidar.
So moral of story punjabi suits fashion changes every season or one year.
May be you never been in Punjab.well i dont know what happens in South India And U.P or others.But in Suits are very North Indian thing.Thankyou.

some people are dumb, in 2008 this was posted and ppl were like why is her kameez so long. don't take credit from Indian designers, the last thing on thei rmind is pakistan and to compete with pakistan? that is dumb. if that was the case all of the designers would be showing collection of pakistani inspired clothing, they are focused on western clients, more money more exposure. please don't forget the huge influence bollywood has on pakistan, its not possible that they won't be influenced. Pakistan is a muslim country so you will obviously see people with similar clothing as for India the styles are varied per person and taste and religion.

why do narrow-minded indians get so defensive when it comes to pak. there are good innovations on BOTH sides of the border. no one is taking credit. the posters are merely pointing out that this outfit may have been influenced by current pak trends, which i agree with cuz my best friend is from lahore and she has been wearing this style for the past few years. soooo RELAX and please educate urself pak culture is alot like indian culture its not opressive like what is shown in media.

i never made any comments about the design being copied from pakistani fashion. Theres more than enough fashion to go around. There is no need to get condesending. When I critique fashion, it based on the designers' work and not the country of origin. For example I think manish malhotra in general makes loud and garish clothes and the anarkalis are god awful but I do love Tarun Tahiliani's work most of the time. I was just making an attempt to correct your skewed perception of pakistani women.

The designers in pakistan have been attempting to reintroduce shorter kameez cuts for a while now but the population in general aren't taking to it. The longer kameezes with high slits on the sides do tend to smooth out the flaws for those of us not blessed with deepika's figure.

umm.. i'm an indian.. and this style is originally pakistani.. because i have paki friends and paki fashion has always amused/ interested me.. earlier they used to have this style where the pajamas were super,super tight and just above the heels and pulling upwards and then suddenly it all changed and the pajamas were flowy and long and kurtis became long, longer and even longer and then indian designers picked that style up and modernized it.. and now its a debate of who did it first.. well, what i have seen is, pak started the trend.. indian designers developed on it.. but frankly, i don't like the dress.. it's blahh.. there are better dresses from designers from both countries and you know what? shops with no brand name have even better clothes sometimes.. and lets not fight over it.. obviously we both nationalities get bored of the same clothes and overtime, people are going to change there styles and recyle them over and over again.. by the next two years, these long kurtis will be gone and the short ones will be back.. there's just so much u can play with fashion..

Indian actresses wear only a few designers because their have a financial and friendly understanding of mutual promotion, so what they wear is very restricted, very sad really for fashion as a whole and fair competition. I think 'jab we met' cottoned on to the patyala and bangles look after it was widely worn by ordinary trendy girls for many many years, so sometimes bollywood is very late and sometimes they dont arrive at all.

well...i did say correct me if i was wrong...so thank you for that and i am happy that you are allowed to wear your fashion sense. As for the silhouette if you guys want to take the credit for it please do...as far as i can see its a slightly longer anarkali/kameez other than that there is nothing 'high fashion' , innovative or remarkable about it...for me it only works because of how understated and elegant the garment is...abu sandeep are older men with mature taste and generally several decades back in their sensibilities so not many young actresses wear them ..so dont depend on these designers to decide what is Vogue in India...in fact the actress in question wore an overworked kameez with a similar silhouette (also worn by ash in a different cut) and she looked suffocating...

"how is this Pakistani, maybe it is ALSO Pakistani but all over the world it goes by the name of chikan work from Lucknow"
chikan fabric and work has always been very popular in both countries. however we are not referring to the fabric and embroidery. the cutout and silhouette of the outfit coressponds to current pak fashion trends that has been around for the past few years.

you're so wrong. Pakistani women have no obligation to wear a burqa, if they do they do on their own prerogative. We try and avoid wearing shorts or short skirts or strapless blouses to public places but jeans, capris, mid to full length skirts, sleeveless are fair game and doesn't get any heads turned. Some women also opt to not carry a dupatta with a shalwar kameez. Not every pakistani is muslim and the metropolitan cities have a substantial population of hindus, christians, parsis etc.
Fashion is a huge deal for pakistani women, no matter which class or socio-economic group they belong to. While some opt for pret wear, most would want to get a fabric and then design it themselves and get work done on it and work out the cuts and everything. I hope that answers your query about repression of creativity.

why has deepika spoilt her hair, i remember when she first came to bollywood she had thick,jet, long black hair till her hips, now she has cut very short, colored it so much that it looks dry , lifeless and sun damaged...some things one should never mess with...beautiful hair is one...that farhan khan's wife spoilt her hair for flirting with her husband...

maybe she did not want sanjay dutt to try and cover her up as he did with amisha patel so went ultra conservative...still wondering if paki fashion allows a low v neck with cleavage potential on a semi-transparent kurta..just saying..

do they now? I don't know much about pakistani fashion but indian celeb fashion doesn't have any variety at all. They all wear the same manish malhotra/sabyasachi designs which have been recycled over and over again. In western first they were after the bandage dresses and now everyones wearing gowns in solid colors.
The reason they wear different things to the events is because bollywood doesn't get what dressing for an occasion means. I mean at any event you'll see the some celebs in gowns like they are r at a fancy ball, some will be wearing really loud anarkalis, some with will be dressed like they r going clubbing, some will wear lacy saris. The men would either be in tux or in torn jeans. Bollywood fashion is a joke.
I'd like to think that Indian fashion isn't defined by bollywood but I guess thats wishful thinking.

im sorry to burst your bubble but in indian traditional clothes there is no variety, esp in bridal and evening wear .. same length cholis and same big motifs, also the churidar shirt length stays the same ... its like evergreen .. nothing ever changes ... just have a look at the recent bollywood weddings ... i mean seriously the clothes were disaster .. and the funny thing is they are made by the biggest fashion desginer ....
