Dhoti

A dhoti is a special piece of cloth that is commonly worn by men in South Asia, particularly in India.

Imagine a bedsheet that is quite long and rectangular in shape. This is what a dhoti looks like. It is made of soft cotton or silk material and can be found in various colors and patterns.

To wear a dhoti, you first have to fold it in a particular way. This can be a bit tricky, so you might need some help from an elder or someone with experience. Once you have folded it correctly, you have to wrap it around your waist and tuck it in at the back.

The folded part of the dhoti is then tucked in between the legs and pulled up to waist level. This creates a kind of skirt-like appearance.

Dhotis are popular because they are comfortable to wear, especially in hot weather. They allow for good air circulation which keeps the body feeling cool. They are also versatile and can be worn for many different occasions, including weddings, religious ceremonies, festivals, and even casual outings.
