Travel Tips Hi I love the Punjabi suit! and it is the most popular dress in Punjab however its history spans into Pakistan,India,Bangladesh and Afghanistan.And was introduced by the PATHANS of KABUL. Salwaar kameez also spelled shalwar kameez and shalwar qamiz) is a traditional dress worn by both women and men in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan. It is sometimes known as Punjabi suit due to its popularity in the Punjab region[1] and the Pathani suit, due to the fact that the Pathans of Kabul introduced the dress to the rest of South Asia.[2] Salwars or shalwars are loose pajama-like trousers. The legs are wide at the top, and narrow at the bottom. The kameez is a long shirt or tunic. The side seams (known as the chaak) are left open below the waist-line, which gives the wearer greater freedom of movement. In Afghanistan and Pakistan, it is the preferred garment of both sexes. In Bangladesh and India, it is most commonly a woman's garment. Though the majority of Indian women wear traditional costumes, the men in India can be found in more conventional western clothing. Shalwar kameez is the traditional dress worn by various peoples of south-central Asia. Specially in India and Pakistan it's very popular dress.
