Salwar are a sort of loose pyjama-like trousers.
The legs are wide at the top, and narrow at
the bottom. The legs are pleated or gathered
into a waistband. There is a drawstring at
the top of the waistband to hold up the salwar.
The pants can be wide and baggy, or they can
be cut quite narrow, on the bias. In the latter
case, they are known as churidar.
The kameez is a long shirt or tunic. The side
seams (known as the chaak) are left open below
the navel, which gives the wearer greater
freedom of movement. The word kameez is derived
from the Latin camisia (shirt or tunic), from
which it probably made its way into various
European languages and also into Arabic, the
likely immediate source for kameez.
The kameez is usually cut straight and flat;
older kameez use traditional cuts; modern
kameez are more likely to have European-inspired
set-in sleeves. The tailor's taste and skill
are usually displayed not in the overall cut,
but in the shape of the neckline and the decoration
of the kameez.
