jasnav!!
Thank you so very much for your hard work and generosity in sharing this with the world.
I L O V E this type of garb and it is so much fun to learn how to make it myself. Especially as this way it will be sure to fit.
You are so very patient with all the demands for MORE! MORE! haha
I think there has been a lack of information on the “information super-highway” in this area, and that is one reason why your contribution is so much appreciated. It is hard to find commercial patterns for Indian traditional garb. I did find reference to one book (in english) with instructions on how to draft and cut kurta, kameez, salwar, churidar, choli, etc, but sadly it is not to be found for sale anywhere or in libraries.
I am hoping to try out your patialas soon. I would like to challenge all your readers to be the first one to publish a tutorial with pictures of their own patiala making adventures. May we place a link here in your comments section?

Hello Fahd,

In earlier times patiala salwar was worn exclusively by men. Only lately, over the past 100 years or so, it has developed into a mostly female fashion accessory.

However, there are still parts of Pakistan and Afghanistan where the patiala shalwar is worn by men as it is part of their dress and culture.

BTW, nice pictures there. I liked browsing around and seeing some of the styles displayed in your pictures.

Hello Gulab

We are here to help you out.

The size of cloth required for a kurti for you should be 2 meters. If you have large ‘var’, i.e. the broader variety of cloth length, the cloth required would be somewhat less – 1.75m.

I hope this helps!

Regards,
Jasnav
