What we so carelessly call every piece of Indian clothing which involves a large loose shirt and pants a Punjabi Suit is actually not very accurate?
Technically what the women wear is called a Punjabi Suit.
The Man's version is known as a Kurta.
So to all of us, who never knew what to call it, or was misinformed, this is a small tip for you and me.
I had the pleasure of learning about this while purchasing a Kurta for Nate, as his childcare center was celebrating Racial Harmony Day today, a lead up to Singapore's independence celebrations early August.
Kurta: is a traditional item of clothing worn in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka.
