Shalwar kameez, also spelled salwar kameez or shalwar qameez, is a traditional outfit originating in South and Central Asia and is a generic term used to describe different styles of dress. The shalwar kameez can be worn by both men and women, although styles differ by gender. The shalwar and the kameez are two garments which have been combined to form the shalwar kameez outfit.The kameez is usually seen straight and flat, but there are a variety of styles. Modern kameez styles are more likely to have European-inspired set-in sleeves. If the tailor's taste or skill are displayed, it will be seen in the shape of the neckline and the decoration of the kameez. Traditionally, the female kameez was a modest article of clothing, but modern versions of the female kameez can be much less modest than traditional versions. The kameez may be cut with a deep neckline, sewn in diaphanous fabrics, or styled in cap-sleeve or sleeveless designs.
The shalwar kameez is often known as a "Punjabi suit" in Birtain where South Asian women from the Punjab Resion have brought the dress to the mainstream, and even high-fashion, appeal.[4]
In India, the garment was originally popular in the North as a convenient and modest alternative to a sari. Owing to its traditionally generous cut, the kameez also fits well on most people regardless of body shape, it has become popular across the sub-continent.
Another style of the shalwar kameez is the Anarkali The Aarkali suit is a timeless style which has become very popular. The Anarkali suit is made up of a long, frock-style top and features a slim fitted bottom which is adorned by the women of North India, Pakistan and The Middle East.
