| Indian Traditional Women Kurti |
The trend of leggings is definitely not a new one. It all started way back in the 70s when they were called tights or slacks. However, back then the leggings or tights were paired with shorter tops, mainly jersey tops. Now, the current rage is to pair leggings with vibrant and ethnic Designer Indian Kurtis. Leggings are quite important in Western fashion as well but those leggings are usually printed ones. When it comes to Indian fashion, the leggings are usually opted in plain solid colors such as black, brown, navy blue, maroon or in softer neutrals such as white, beige, grey, etc. Leggings are the fashionable and tighter substitute for the Indian Churidar. While the Churidar is made of a variety of fabrics such as cotton or silk depending upon the entire ensemble, leggings are primarily made of cotton-lycra blend or nylon-lycra blend.
Leggings worn with Western outfits are often knee-length or ankle length while the leggings meant to be paired with Indian Kurtis often extend beyond the ankle in length so as to give it Churidar look by forming gathers around the ankle region. They are paired with long Designer Indian Kurtis in eye-catching colors. Leggings paired with short Kurtis are quite unflattering and hence, most women do not opt for short Kurtis when wearing leggings. Since leggings are skin-tight, they are often paired with flared long Kurtis rather than tight-fitting long Kurtis. Flared Designer Indian Kurtis or crushed Designer Indian Kurtis with contrast leggings indeed renders a chic look.
Tunics or the Indian Women Kurtis, as otherwise referred to, is primarily regarded as a casual wear outfit. It is often associated with college-goers mainly because of the convenience and the comfort it offers. It has, perhaps, evolved as the most popular outfit amongst college girls.
Such casual wear Kurtis are usually made of cotton or linen, keeping in minds the hot and sultry Indian climate. While printed cotton Kurtis are the best option and a favorite amongst the college crowd, those featuring minimal embroidery or sari patches are not far behind in the favorite list. Indian Standards once considered these leggings immodest but thanks to the Western Salwar Kameez trends, they have become the most sought after piece of clothing in India. Everyone, from a teenage girl to a homemaker to a female corporate executive is considering leggings as a comfortable option to couple up with the kurta or the cheap kurti tops.
