Clothing in India varies from region to region depending on the
ethnicity,
geography,
climate and
cultural traditions of the people of that region.
Historically,
men and women's clothing has evolved from simple
Langotas and
loincloths to cover the body to
elaborate costumes not only used in
daily wear but also on festive occasions as well as
rituals and
dance performances.
Clothing, along with
accessories and
embellishments in
India, also indicates the religion, class and caste of a person
.[dubious – discuss] However, in
urban areas,
western clothing is common and uniformly worn by people of all strata.
India also has a great diversity in terms of weaves, fibers, colors and material of clothing. Color codes are followed in clothing based on the religion and ritual concerned. For instance,
Hindus wear white clothes to indicate mourning while
Parsis and
Christians wear white to
weddings.
