desi clothes and sizing....

Why are salwar kameezes sized smaller than normal clothes?? I’ve noticed this… I’m one size around the bust, but all my kameezes have to be 4-6 inches larger… :bummer:

I love my new salwar kameez and I think I look great in it, but I took this pic and I was like :eek: I AM NOT THAT BIG :bummer: this just bothers me...

Re: desi clothes and sizing....

i always have problems with my salwar kameez. even when they take the measurements they always turn out to short or tight or have other problems. and my salwar is always to short.

Re: desi clothes and sizing…

as long as it looks good on u… thats all that matters :k:

Re: desi clothes and sizing....

:bummer: :frowning:

Re: desi clothes and sizing....

hun i have seen ur pics..u r not that big!

Re: desi clothes and sizing....

I know i'm not that big, so why do my clothes look so freakin gigantic?? i swear it's a damn razrai

Re: desi clothes and sizing…

razai? :stuck_out_tongue:
hehe..that was cute though
I think the reason maybe because the kapra is not stretchy.

Re: desi clothes and sizing....

darzis arent that smart. i told my them to lengthen my shalwar but it seems like they shortened it.

Re: desi clothes and sizing....

Most darzis take the bust measurement and apply it to the part just underneath the armhole where in actuallity our bust falls atleast 3-4 inches lower than that. that is why the kameez is tight across the bust and folds in an weird manner under the arms. they also make the waist curve too high which makes the entire look off!!!

Re: desi clothes and sizing....

i hate it when my kameez sticks out from my hips. its so annoying.
n would you really want a darzi measuring you from the bust...

Re: desi clothes and sizing....

It tickles...

Re: desi clothes and sizing…

i hate that too!!! and no i wouldn’t want a darzi measuring by bust :eek: the best thing to do is give them a pair of shalwar kameez that fits really well and tell them to use that for the measurement but then again they some how get the measurements wrong…i’m lucky that my mom and sis both know how to sew shalwar kameez so o have them make my stuff at home…

Re: desi clothes and sizing…

darzis r not human beings? They can’t enjoy little things in life?

jeez !

Re: desi clothes and sizing…
