Shalwar Kameez is of Muslim origin. It was in countries such as Afghanistan and Pakistan that this outfit was widely worn by men and women. Women, of course, supplemented the Shalwar Kameez with a Dupatta. Gradually, Shalwar Kameez suit earned its place in the wardrobe of every Indian woman. Traditionally, the Shalwar used to be quite loose and the Kameez quite short. The Shalwar featured numerous pleats along the waistline and this resulted in subtle drapes or folds along the length of the Shalwar. Such voluminous Shalwars used to flatter those with lean and athletic frames but it posed to be unflattering for those on the bulky side.
