ARABIAN FASHION IN INDIA


I have noticed that no change in fashion has occured from 1970s in India. When I was a small boy, I saw parallel pants for gents which changed to body fitting and low waist to bell bottoms. ImageThe fashion changed and men’s pants were a little relaxed with narrow bottom. Baggies arrived and were a hit as disco days were getting over. Many new film actors and star sons made their debut in these pants. These baggy pants were much similar to the parallel pants been worn by people of my childhood. Yeateryears film actress ImageMumtaz’s short kurta design became a hot selling cake which refused to die between 2009 to 2011.

However now I see a ray of hope. I see a lot of designers coming from Pakistan in India to showcase their stuff like.Their fashion is very much dependent on Arabian fashion. Pictures below will support in understanding my point
