Salwar Kameez Tips

Posted by Mister Picses

Salwar Kameez started as an alternative dress form in Kashmir and Punjab, it has grown in popularity all over India and in all the Muslim countries of the world, especially with younger women. With Celebrities like Goldie hawn, Sally field, Hillary Clinton, Jennifer Lopez and the Late Princess Diana adorning the Salwar Kameez at high profile events, this garment is the clearly the current flavour in the West. Shalwar Kameezs are pajama-like trousers gathered at the waist and ankles, worn underneath a long, loose tunic known as a kameez.
::Some tips on Salwar Kameez::
* The kameez should be a little longer in height. It makes you look taller. If your height is around 5 feet 3 inches then your kameez height should be around 47- 48 inches.
* If you have broad shoulders then avoid wearing puffed sleeves.
* If you have fat arms and therefore cannot wear sleeveless then go in for sleeves of about 5 inches length. This will hide the flab on your arms and your hands will look thinner.
* Salwar Kameez can be worn in many styles. Styles keep changing with Trends. Recently big bottoms were in fashion and now short Kurtas Are back in vogue.

* Chudidar looks good on long kameezs or Kurtas. Avoid wearing them on short Kurtas. Chinese collar (closed neck) makes you look tall, but avoid it if you have broad shoulders. * Wear a Salwar Kameez around your naval area, as it will pull in your stomach.

* If you have the tie strings on your side, it reduces the look of the paunch.
* Tucks might be out of fashion but they give a very good cut to the Kameez.
* Avoid Organza or any stiff cloth if you want to look slimmer.
* Dark colours like maroon, red, blue or brown look very good on dark women.
