Trousers take over the dhoti

The Economic Times of December 6, 2008 reported that 55% of all
readymade trousers sold in India were sold in rural areas. This is
good news. It shows the depth of our retail market, the increased
prosperity of the rural areas and a welcome spread of modernization.

Some may bemoan the erosion of our ethnic culture. But since most of
the people who will so crib, will do so while wearing western clothes,
we needn't take them seriously.

Now the only people wearing dhotis would be the smart set. Like
friend Amir!

trousers are patterns and textures. All kinds of patterns are available this fall including: plaids, pinstripes and hounds tooth patterns. Subtle pinstripes look especially nice for a touch of glamour. Textures such as wool and tweed are also fashionable for the colder months. Pair these textured tall pants with a simple solid colored sweater and you will have a classic look that will be great for years to come.
