Origin of Western attire of Women

I would say, its mutual, women love to dress and men love the sight of a well dressed women. Dressing is one's personal matter and choice. Saree no doubt is the most elegant attire but again if a saree can cover a women's body completely it can on the other hand be the most revealing outfit. It all depends on the way a women carries herself and what is her motive behind dressing in the way she dresses up. There is nothing wrong in the dressing all that matters is how you want to depict yourself and again of course comfort matters. Yes there are extreme cases everywhere, some women do not really know how to dress or how to carry themselves in a particular outfit be it Indian or western......and some women just do it so comfortably and elegantly!!!

Ms. Kaladeen,

Thanks for the referral. I completely support you here. As I have mentioned in my comment earlier, I find such topics very teeny and would not want to be anywhere near them at all. :))

I DO AGREE THAT  THERE ARE OTHER MORE RELEVANT TOPICS TO BE DISCUSSED & DEBATED .BUT EVEN THEN WOMEN DO HAVE IN THEIR MINDS WHILE DRESSING OR WEARING ANY ATTIRE WHETHER THEY ARE BEING NOTICED & ADMIRED BY ONLOOKERS WHETHER MEN OR WOMEN.

Women historically have been costume and physically more conscious the man and the same trend continues even today as they evolve more in terms of dressing and attire. 

Strange but true that we Indians don't have enough thoughts prevailing to focus on thus this topic. The writer has mentioned in his blog the origin of the attire but we have moulded the thought into whether it's a male chauvinism or whether women enjoy it. Diluting some of our thoughts, this is a perspective and depends upon the outlook of people. I don't know which section to put my comments in though.

Indian women have adopted the attire primarily for business reasons and now for vogue. No business professional in Europe would be coming to office wearing an informal or casual attire that will have raised eyebrows or eyes wide open. But in India the dress code has underwent a drastic change. Firdays have become fashion parades within IT/ITes companies but perhaps someone said right,"Women enjoy it" and there is none who can morally raise a finger against a woman for such an attire. Democracy prevails here. May be it was Male chauvinism that led India adopt this dress. Long back it was called 'secretarial attire' but now it's no attire. Just a casual stuff.

I wholeheartedly support devi's view.

i am totally agree with DEVI . you are right . dont criticise or do politics.. you all must have heard this saying ...AS YOU SOW SO AS YOU REEP..  IF YOU DELIBERATELY SHOW YOUR SKIN, THE CONSEQUENCES WILL BE ACCORDING TO THAT ONLY.. AND VICE VERSA..DO IT IN LIMIT..SIMPLE

Suddenly there is a lot of  interest in Women's attire these days.....guys let them do what ever they want to do, why do you want to get  into women's attire and all....its got nothing to do with male chauvinism behind their attire, if they are confident and if they feel they can carry it of, then its their wish to dress in any manner......"if you've got it then flaunt it" nothing wrong in it..

There is a saying, "You got it, Flaunt it!"

This male chauvinism and other perceived things are absolutely bu****it!! Everybody likes to see a beautiful woman dressed beautifully. Western attire or not, I am completely sure that a woman looks more seductive, sensual and complete in a saree!

Its the most whole body outfit with a very seductive grace that embraces the woman's body! So there. Now will you all please stop making a fuss about women and their dressing sense!! Its really very teeny...

Robertson the poet says, "A thing of beauty is a joy forever..."

Live it and enjoy it!

I think its a cultural difference and with the liberalisation of culltural values in our country in last 2 decades  even women enjoy's to dress up in women attire. It's not the male chauvinism the main reason for their western attire. With the corporate culture coming into in Tier cities and more of the cosmo culture in these cities there ought to be adoption of the western culture.
