Traditional dandiya wear for men



When one thinks of fashion clothing or even ethnicclothing of India, most only remember the saree, salwar kameez, and various other styles that are for women. While it is true that women have a lot more options when dealing with clothes and garments such as embroidered suits in India, it is not entirely true that men have less traditional wear. There are a lot of different types of ethnic and traditional wear for men all across the country.

Kediyu and Kafni Pajama
This is the traditional wear for men during the festivals of Navratri, where there are colorful dandiya dances and also Garba dances.

Kediyu is made full-sleeved and long in length, usually up to the knees. This is a type of shirt, or “gathered frock” for men. The shirt is fitting on the top along the torso, however, it has a wide flare from the waist down. This is made in this manner, as this is attractive during the dance when moving in circular motions. The sleeves are also a tight fit.

The Kafni pajamas are fashioned to match the shirt. The pajamas have multiple pleats from the waist that flair during the dance. The bottom part of the pajamas tapers down towards the ankle and ends in a cuff. This is heavily embroidered as are the clothes for women, likeheavily embroidered sarees in India.  The embroidery work is more concentrated around the neckline, cuff and the flared pajamas at the bottom. Many prefer to wear plain pajamas with minimal embroidery near the ankle only on the pajamas; others choose pajamas with embroidered art all over.

Recent times have seen a rise in printed kurtis in India, rather than hand-embroidered clothes that are not only expensive but also need meticulous care for maintenance. However, the beauty of embroidered clothes remains unmatched.
