Indian tradition has given birth to some quality ethnic attires for the women of this region and salwar kameez is one of the most prominent among them. This specific type of dress is highly adored by most of the women living in the entire Indian sub-continent. Actually, they feel comfortable in wearing this three-piece dress, which consists of a bottom part termed as salwar, upper part termed as kameez and a dupatta for wrapping over the kameez.

So the Indian women stack their wardrobes with plenty of salwar kameez sets, which they buy in readymade forms. They may also buy suitable dress material for getting the dress stitched exactly according to their sizes. Many varieties of fabrics are used for stitching salwar kameez suits in India, among which a few have gained vast popularity.

  • Silk – The only fabric generally used for making the most expensive salwar kameez suits is silk, due to its extremely soft and shiny texture. So the wearers feel very comfortable, as well as look very gorgeous while donning the silk salwar kameez sets on any special occasion. Different varieties of silks are available all over India, which are mostly named according to their places of origin, among which Benarasi silk, Mysore silk and Tussar silk are most famous.
  • Cotton – Since India has a warm tropical climate almost throughout the year, the cotton is universally accepted as the most comfortable fabric. Thus, cotton cloths are mostly favoured as the ideal dress material for making salwar kameez that can be used as daily wear. Cotton fabric is soft and most comfortable for wearing in the hot and humid climate of India, as air can pass easily through the visible pores present in between the fibres of this cloth. But the cotton dresses are no less attractive than other fabrics, as all shades of colours can be dyed and printed over the cotton clothing. Often cotton fibre is blended with silk, jute and synthetic materials; though pure cotton is the most preferred material for stitching dresses.
  • Synthetic fabrics – Among the synthetically manufactured fabrics, georgette, chiffon and crepe are the most popular ones for making salwar kameez sets. Georgette makes very soft and comfortable dresses, while the strength of this fabric can support the load of extensive embroideries of heavy threads. The free-flowing nature of georgette helps in creating most fashionable designs. Chiffon is another important fabric that is widely used for making the Anarkali styled salwar suits, due to its grace and grandeur. Crepe is favoured due to its wrinkled texture and lightness, which make the salwar kameez sets prettier in appearance.
  • Other popular fabrics – Jute is now used for making elegant salwar suits, while Khadi is another favourite fabric that is used as easily affordable dress materials. Satin and brocade are two other fabrics used for making gorgeous ethnic Indian attires of vibrant colours. Net and tissues are very light fabrics that are conveniently used for stitching stylish salwar kameez suits.

Sometimes, a few special types of fabrics may go out of fashion like any other style statement. For example, rayon and velvet were used to be the most preferred fabrics for the dress materials of Indian women. But now the modern girls like to wear salwar kameez made of silk, cotton, chiffon and georgette. However, the colours and the designs of salwar kameez suits should be chosen as per the exact skin colour of the wearer. But now the Indian women have a vast array of choices in the types of fabrics, styles and the patterns used for this ethnic Indian dress.
