| | Description | Salwar Kameez covers a woman's body in the way no other dress does. From neck to toe, salwar kameez provides complete protection against sun rays in summer and against chill will in winter. It is also one of those rare dresses that fit in well equally for business and for casual wear. Each Salwar Kameez comes with a long rectangular scarf that is meant to be draped from shoulders down. For those not so familiar with Indian dresses, Salwar is the bottom part of the dresss, in the form of trousers. There is a drawstring for tying at the waist level. Kameez, also known as kurta is the upper part of the dress, is in the form of a long shirt. Preferred length for kameez by most women is knee- length. Sleeves come in variable sizes sleeveless, short sleeve, half sleeve, three quarter sleeve, and full sleeve. The fabric is usually light weight, which is what makes this dress extremely comfortable. Since the dress is meant to be loose fit, it is very breathable too. | |

 Salwar Kurta Chikan Embroidery Womens Dresses Short Sleeve Apr 11, 2009
Chikankari is fine, aristocratic, lace-like stitch work done by thousands of women in Lucknow and in other towns of Uttar Pradesh. It is said to have been introduced by the Mughal queen, Noor Jehan and was certainly made only for nobility in earlier times on the finest of muslin cloth. Perhaps inspired from Turkish embroidery, its characteristic quality is the use of white thread on white cloth. Its variety of delicate stitches, each with its own special name, creates shadowwork, netting and other subtle effects that require excellence of skill to make up for the absence of colour. Sometimes tiny pieces of foil are stitched fabrics and the popularity of chikan work among more egalitarian, economic and social conditions have brought mass produced, brightly coloured chikan work, ensuring employment to many Muslim women while starkly separating the excellent from the ordinary.

 salwar kamiz Nov 13, 2007
While sari is kind of a national dress for women in India, it is salwar kameez that is more popular among women here. Easy to wear and loose fit comfort makes salwar kameez the dress of choice, particularly among women in the age group of 25-50. Besides, ShalinCraft Salwar Kameez are handmade in cotton with hand embroidery and appliques, making it authentic ethnic wear.
