In INDIA, people believes in unity and diversity and same is reflected in their apparels. It is rightly said that clothes reflect ones personality. The vibrant colors and changing mood the good counteracting the bad, the angles over evil positivity from negativity their well being adds colors to their life.

Guajarati's wear Chaniya Cholis Saris with bandhini batik prints with an antique ethnic look with mirror work namely abla with leriya prints, with kundan accessories and usually prefers jorget fabrics to dance to the tune of Garba and Dandiya inviting goddess Ambe Maa Laxmi the Goddess of Wealth.

Punjabis/Sikhs wear chudidar and usually favour zari boder veil over head and worship gurudwara. Christians wear evening gown with a white base signifying purity during their wedding thus appealing to the world the sense of one's harmony.

Paithni, a typically nine yard sari woven in the north eastern region of India is usually worn in the western region of India mainly Maharashtra, Mumbai.
South Indians wear nine yard kanjeevaram silk saris embellished with a real gold and silver border which takes nearly months for one attire to be formed. It is usually made in the southern parts of India Gobichettapallyam Tamil Nadu.
