Salwar kameez (also spelled Shalwar Kameez and Shalwar Qameez is a traditional dress worn by both women and men in South Asia. Salvars or shalvars are loose pajama-like trousers. The legs are wide at the top, and narrow at the bottom. The kameez is a long shirt or tunic. The side seams (known as the chaak) are left open below the waist-line, which gives the wearer greater freedom of movement. In Afghanistan and Pakistan, the garment is worn by both sexes. In India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, it is most commonly a woman's garment albeit it is still worn by some men.
