Clothing in Gujarat


Both men and women wear lavish jewellery and Ornaments. The way geographical area of Gujarat presents so much variety, so do its clothing trends. The fine thread work, use of beats, astragals, small patches, clothe pieces are commonly found as add ups of Guajarati outfits. This is the fineness and creativity of Gujarati embroiders. Chorno is the common Guajarati costume that the Guajarati men wear. This cotton dress is mostly worn by men in rural areas of the state. The short kediyu or angrakhu is pout over the Chorno to cover the upper part of the body. Mostly we see that the men in the state wear a typical head gear or a turban. This is so especially in rural areas. This head-clothe is known as phento and is a thickly folded/layered piece of cloth. If we talk about women, they in general wear chaniyo, especially in rural areas. This dress consists of a petticoat and blouse known as choli. The Petticoat is colored and adorned with glass pieces on it. The choli consists of quite the same type of design or pattern which matches the glass pieces on petticoat. To give a decent and graceful finishing, women take a chunri. This chunri drapes around the upper part of the body. A chunri is generally a coarse piece of cloth without any heavy work on it and it is very light in weight.
