saris are the main women's clothe in India, and Bangladesh
shalwar kameez is the main clothe in Pakistan, and also worn In India, and Bangladesh.

i think the Shalwar Kameez's looke nicer on women.

I'm attending a friends Indian Wedding in July. The dress I am wearing is pretty simple, in a lovely turquoise color. Here is a link to the same dress, different color so you can see the style.

I would like to make it a little fancier and/or ethnically relevant by exchanging the sash for something in a lovely Indian print, or maybe finding a great Indian looking wrap, or adding some fancy gold trim or something but I'm having trouble finding something appropriate. I tried to find sari/saree fabric but with no luck (this would be my first foray into searching for such fabric so maybe I just don't know where to look.)

Anyone with more experience than me in this style have any suggestions for something that would be tasteful and celebratory for a dear friends wedding? Any advice would be appreciated!

Okay, I am now far from India and I'm trying to find Saree dresses or Islam clothing for women in Louisiana. I'm not sure if J C Penny or etc might have those.

If it is possible, please, I need help finding Islam clothing / india clothing as son as possible. I know not too much of USA...so any people from America, I need help..BAD!

Do you know anything that will help me purchase the particular Islam/ Hindu India clothing's in Louisiana?
Or do you know any catalogs I can request that includes Islamic or India clothing online from USA?

I need help so bad now! I really don't know how to purchase my saree /sari dresses here in Louisiana.

If you can, please help me locate these kind of clothing. It can be in a magazine that sales these, a site that will approve me to purchase these clothing without license, or a local store or fashion store that has nothing but Islamic / Hindu clothing.

- Thanks a buch!

I don't know too much online!!

I will be traveling to India soon, and I'm so excited to have a saree hand-made for me! I know very little about sarees, except that they are beautiful.

I really like the style of sari that has the short little blouse on top (exposing the abdomen from below the bustline to just above the waist). What is this style called? I am a young woman, and I want my saree to look sleek and sexy.

More generally-- Is there anything I should make sure the saree has, or does not have? I am referring to certain fabrics, cuts, built-in belts, accessories, etc., that I should ask for in order to get a beautiful, well-fitting, quality dress. I have a friend who said that I should ask to have a belt included, and that Bernarsi fabric is best. What do you think??

Also, any information on proper pricing (and the cost of shipping such an item to the US) that you happen to have off the top of your head would be much appreciated.

Thank you soooooo much!! I can't wait!!!

Hi, my question is would it be offensive for someone not of the hindu religion or Indian culture to buy and wear a sari? I'm in the process of helping someone plan a wedding and she really thought they were beautiful and loves indian culture so she's wondering would she be able to wear a sari and have i guess a indian style wedding. I just hope no one gets offended.

I want to wear it to my graduation party, I'm 16 what do you think?
also do you think it would suit me?

I have green to brown eyes, blonde hair, am pale but plan to tan. What color sari should I buy?
I don't like pink or purple and it can't be black or white.

My husband is going on a short trip to Bangalore.
Can anyone tell me the names of some good Sari Emporiums of Bangalore selling Karnataka Silk? My husband is ever scared of touts and dallals and unless provided names of shops, will not buy anything.
I saw some sites about Karnataka Silk but all quote price in Dollars. Can anyone give me an idea of their price range?
Thanks in anticipation.

If you are person who need to buy. Contact me for more information.

I am interested in a plain kota doria sari (or perhaps lengha choli) in white,off-white, ivory, gold, moon, jasmine or other light colors. I don't mind simple/elegant embroidery, but I do not like very lively designs. If you can recommend a seamstress or tailor who would be able to do this, that would work as well.

This is for an event that will be held outside, so both comfort and style are important.

Please don't provide links to popular websites such as utsavsarees, sareesonline, kaneesha, eshakti, bargello, etc. I do have access to google and wanted more specific information.

If you wind up giving me a great starting point or reference, I will choose your answer as best and close this question. Thanks!

I will be going to an Indian wedding soon and I choose to wear a Sari even though I am not Indian to show my respect for the culture and not to mention Saris are beautiful and far more individual then western womens clothes! But, I dont know the appropriate color or drape for my Sari, and I dont want to show up the bride. Any thoughts?

How should I wear my Saree/Sari?

I know that there are many ways to wear a saree/sari and that the way you wear it shows where you are from, Does anyone know the correct way for a hindu punjabi girl to wear her saree?
My family usually only wears them for special occassion but I was just wondering if the way I wear it is correct

Looking to have an outfit made for my sons wedding, would like an indian inspired outfit and have seen some Asian ladies wearing tunic and trouser style sari's. Would like to know what this outfit is called and where i can find one or preferably have one made in and around London.
