Indeed, males too can wear the patiala salwaar with the salwaar suit that is extremely popular in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

However, the design preferred by most is the semi-patiala, as compared to the heavily pleated full patiala salwaar, which was more popular during the times of royalty.

When going for a patiala salwaar for a male, the design of the kurta should be of round ‘ghera’ ie; the lower cut of the shirt. This will make the wearer more comfortable and enable the elaborate design of the salwaar to be seen.
