Shalwar kameez

Have you ever seen a special outfit that some people from Pakistan and India wear? It's called a shalwar kameez!

The shalwar kameez is made up of two parts – the kameez and the shalwar. The kameez is a long tunic top that goes down to your knees or ankles, while the shalwar is a loose-fitting pants that are gathered at the ankles.

People wear it for different occasions like weddings, parties, or even just as a regular outfit. It's comfortable to wear because it's loose and baggy, and you can move around easily.

Some shalwar kameezs even come with beautiful embroidery or patterns on them, making them even more pretty and special.

It's a traditional outfit that has been worn for hundreds of years, and it's still very popular today.
