Tips on Wearing a
Shalwar Kameez

1. If you are short, then you should make your kameez be a little longer in length. This will make you look taller. If your height is around 5 feet 3 inches then your kameez height should be around 47- 48 inches. You can also wear a Chinese collar (closed neck) makes you look tall

2. If you have broad shoulders then avoid wearing puffed sleeves or Chinese collar top as this will make you look wider.

3. If you have fat arms and therefore cannot wear sleeveless then go in for sleeves of about 5 inches length. This will hide the flab on your arms and your hands will look thinner.

4. Shalwar are made in different styles according to the trends and outfit. Currently Patiala Salwar, Dhoti salwar, Kowl salwar, Double ghair salwars, Parallel Pants, Trousers like pajamas with short kurtas / tops were in vogue.

5. Chudidar shalwar looks good on long kameez, Anarkali style shirt, Peshwas or Kurtas which give you a traditional look.

6. If you have a slight belly the you should try and wear a shalwar around your naval area, as it will pull in your stomach and make you look thinner. If you have the tie strings on your side, it reduces the look of the pounch. Avoid Organza or any stiff cloth if you want to look slimmer.

Tips so that You can Wear Colour to Your Advantage:

• If you are timid or shy, wear red or strong colours and others will perceive you as more assertive while you are still being you.
• Beige and grey elicit a tailored and professional image and are great colours to incorporate into your outfit with prospective clients because you're perceived as approachable.
• Choose a muted pastel as opposed to pinks, baby blues and yellow in business apparel since that is appropriate for office wear and looks decent.
• Black is best for formal attire as in suits and for evening events.
• Navy makes everyone look good and communicates individual authority. It's great for classic suiting as well as sportswear. The maritime look has always and will continue to always be in fashion.
• Red, green and blue in assorted tints and shades are suitable for all occasions; however, straight green is not appropriate for the work place. Try olive, teal, or sage.
• If you love yellow, try shades or tints of it such as gold and mustard.
• If you want to appear smaller incorporate dark, cool and dull colours and textures. Dull textures absorb the light like wool or cotton. Some very slimming colours include black, navy, olive, violet, charcoal grey, chocolate brown, plum, eggplant and burgundy.
• If you want an area to appear larger choose light, bright and/or shiny colours and textures. Shiny fabrics reflect light making an image appear larger.
• If you want to appear taller, wear colours from the same colour family such as blue, navy and teal. Otherwise known as a monochromatic colour scheme, colour is wavelength and when wearing two different colours, the eye has to stop briefly to adjust to the different wavelength. When wearing colours from the same colour family the eye doesn't have to adjust.
• Finally, when it comes to colour, wear the colour that makes YOU feel good and suit you (yes, when you are feeling blue - wear blue) and ones you receive complements on. It may not be the best one for your complexion but it is the best one for.
