Ladies Kurti

In modern usage, a short kurta is referred to as the kurti, which is the attire of females. However, traditionally, the term kurti refers to waist coats, jackets and blouses which sit above the waist without side slits, and are believed to have descended from the tunic of the Shunga period (2nd century B.C.). A kurta is a long, loose shirt commonly worn in South Asia. In Indian cities, it's very common for both men and women to wear kurtas with jeans. A kurta is a kind of tunic, or long, collarless top. The kurta is traditionally made of cotton or silk. It is worn plain or with embroidered decoration, such as chikan; and it can be loose or tight in the torso, typically falling either just above or somewhere below the knees of the wearer.
