Women’s Indian Skirts

The Indian Skirt borrowed from the Western Skirt adapted to the Indian situation. Unnati experimented with a new look long skirt or maxi skirt that took the market by storm. The Indian version of the skirt has gone down well with Indian women. Not restricted to a length close to the knees like the western skirt, the Indian skirt is a long flowing drape from waist downwards to just above feet level. Suits tradition and looks trendy.

The Indian skirt being a modern garment and Dabu being a traditional style of printing, it was a unique experiment to get stylish innovative prints that would woo the fashion world.
