Hey fellow adventurers! This is another blog post that I’ve been looking forward to writing! I’ve always been intrigued in Indian fashion but I’ve never looked into it.
Although India has had a popular style of fashion for a long time, Indians have only been interested in the fashion industry since the 1980’s. Popular items of clothing in the pre-1980’s were:
- Kurta: a loose shirt falling somewhere around the knees, worn by women and men
- Dhoti: a rectangular piece of unstitched cloth, usually around 15 ft. (4.5 meters) long, wrapped around the waist and the legs and knotted at the waist, worn by men
- Gagra Coli: the combination of a midriff-baring blouse and waist or hip high long skirt, worn by women
- Sari: a piece of fabric that is anywhere between 5-9 yards long (4.5-8 meters) wrapped around the waist and draped over the shoulder which symbolizes grace, worn by women
Now a day, there are a few regions that wear only traditional clothing but in most places, you’ll see a mix of traditional and new styles. There are so many different mixtures of styles depending on the occasion, the region and the person’s taste in clothing. Especially in places like Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Bangalore and Hyderabad, you’ll see more western style clothing. A popular mixture of traditional and western style fashion is wearing a kurti (a shortened kurta) with jeans.
Some popular Indian Instagram accounts that cover fashion:

If you’re like me then you’ve been wondering how women wear saris. I found this YouTube video that explains how to put it on and a couple different ways to style it:
While researching Indian fashion, I came across a Hindi filmed called Fashion that sounds interesting. The audience gave it a score of 70% on Rotten Tomatoes (no critic score available). On Rotten Tomatoes, it’s described: “Set against the glittering backdrop of the glamorous but ruthless world of haute couture fashion, this film tells the story of a small town girl with big city ambitions. Meghna always knew she was meant to be famous, but she was about to find out the hard way that success came at a price. Fashion is the tale of what happens when the price of success becomes too much to pay.” Unfortunately, the trailer I found doesn’t have English subtitles but it’s still interesting to watch:
That’s it for the post on fashion! What’s your favorite aspect of Indian fashion? Please let me know in the comment section below! I’m loving kurtis but I eventually want to get a sari. Thank you so much for reading my blog! Until our next adventure!

Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
