I wore my first salwar kameez back in the 1960s, SO comfortable. Then I lived in rural places where you didn't dare stand out and it disappeared somewhere during many moves. I bought an outfit a few years back from Indianexotica at eBay (2 Aussies living in India) and loved it, but forgot about them, what with life and all, until you mentioned it again.

I LOVE the colors and fabric first off. I'm sorry for those who love it, but Swedish fashion is BORING. Same colors, same style, whether it suits you or not, and if you're a tall, plump woman, forget it. With salwar kameez, you can be feminine and comfortable, I think they're sexy (the fabric) and yet you're as covered as you want to be (I don't do sun well, even in Sweden).
