			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;ve all experienced a fashion emergency or wished we could improve  out beauty regimen with easy, inexpensive adjustments. So here are some  quick and easy ways to stave off that unsightly pimple, keep under eye  bags at bay and have gorgeous skin all year long.</p>
<p><strong>Pimple Rx</strong></p>
<p>Feel  a pimple coming on and can&#8217;t walk around with chalky white toothpaste  on your face? Try dabbing some of your perfume on the blemish a few  times throughout the day. The alcohol in the perfume will help dry it  out (plus you&#8217;ll smell great!).</p>
<p><strong>Sleep better</strong></p>
<p>Have  trouble falling asleep but you&#8217;ve exhausted your sleep aid prescription?  Why not try to catch some Z&#8217;s the natural way? Lavender is known to  promote alpha waves, which are necessary for restful sleep. Try soaking  in a bath before bed with Lavender salts or Lavender oil.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s  another idea: take a Lavender face pillow and pop it in the microwave on  low for a couple of minutes, then place inside your pillowcase. Put  your arms over your head and clasp hands, then stretch your clasped arms  as far to the right as possible (make sure you remain comfortable) and  then back over your body to the left. Repeat about five times. Breathe  in deeply as you do these stretches, which will get the oxygen flowing.</p>
<p><strong>Perfect  that Pout</strong></p>
<p>We can only dream of having lips like Angelina-well  naturally anyway. Most of us have at least thought about using a lip  plumper, hoping to look in the mirror and see gloriously luscious lips  smiling back at us. The key is getting lips ready for lip plumper, so it  can penetrate and do its job.<br />
Here&#8217;s a little trick that won&#8217;t cost you a dime. Apply a small  amount of Vaseline on a soft bristle tooth brush that&#8217;s been moistioned  with warm water. Ever so gently brush lips for about 2 minutes-you might  want to do this while watching TV, two minutes can feel like forever.  Remove the Vaseline with moistened towelette or soft washcloth and then  blot dry. Apply moisturizer, sunscreen and lip plumper. Then go show off  your beautifully plumped lips.</p>
<p>p.s. If you don&#8217;t want to splurge  on a store-bought lip plumper, dab a tiny-and we mean tiny-amount of  Cayenne pepper on your lips. It&#8217;ll sting a little, but what&#8217;s a little  pain in the name of looking gorgeous?</p>
<p><strong>Baby Soft Skin</strong></p>
<p>Wonder  why some women appear to have plump, hydrated skin even in the middle  of winter while yours is so dry it hurts to smile? Chances are those  other ladies are doing a few things differently-or else they are  genetically perfect and we don&#8217;t like them anyway.</p>
<p>When it comes  to keeping your skin hydrated it only makes sense to drink lots of  water. Water keeps the cells in your body quenched, so your skin looks  luminous and your appetite is curbed (great skin and a trim figure-it&#8217;s  too for the price of one!). You&#8217;ve heard it before but we&#8217;ll say it  again, get eight 8oz glasses a day. Your skin will thank you.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s  something you may not have heard before: distilled water is the best  for drinking because chlorine and other contaminants are greatly reduced  when the water is boiled. To hydrate your skin throughout the day try a  purified water mister.</p>
<p><strong>Moisturizing Basics</strong></p>
<p>The best  time to moisturize is immediately after bathing when your body is damp  and moist. Smooth on Body Butter, Body Cream, or Body Lotion to lock in  moisture. And you don&#8217;t have to spend a lot of money.</p>
<p>Some may  think the more expensive a moisturizer is, the more effective it will be  against dry skin. But this really is a myth. That&#8217;s not to say  expensive lotions don&#8217;t make us feel more luxurious (even if it&#8217;s just  because we know how much it cost). But the good news is-especially if  you don&#8217;t have a $200 a month beauty budget-is that you can still  yourself to radiant, glowing skin for the cost of your daily Starbucks  and muffin, just by visiting your local drugstore. There are lots of  great moisurizers that hydrate and condition dry, thirsty skin with  natural ingredients like shea butter and vitamin E.</p>
<p>In addition to  applying lotion daily, here are some other helpful tips to keep skin  smooth during the winter months:</p>
<ul>
<li>Keep your shower times shorter and limit your exposure to hot water.  Try turning on the radio and limiting yourself to just 2-3 songs as a  guide.</li>
<li>Avoid intense scrubbing while showering. Choose a soft soap rather  than an exfolient. Here&#8217;s an idea. The SALUX Beauty Skin Cloth gently  exfoliates the skin with a special texture that stimulates blood  circulation, while requiring you to use less soap.</li>
<li>Don&#8217;t forget your sunscreen! Sun damage can still happen with clouds  in the sky, so it&#8217;s very important to continue to wear no less than SPF  15 every day.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Frizz-free hair</strong></p>
<p>On the go and forgot your hair  pomade? Don&#8217;t freak out-and certainly don&#8217;t let your hair freak out.  Apply a small dollup of hand lotion in your hands, then gently smooth  hands over your hair. This will help to tame unruly hair. You can also  use a tiny amount of Vaseline on the ends of your hair.<br />
For future hair emergencies, make sure to pick up one of these great  products to keep on hand and in your medicine cabinet: Frederic Fekkai  Glossing Cream , Biosilk Silk Therapy, which also doubles as a great  skin salve, and Aveda Brilliant Emollient Finishing Gloss.</p>
<p><strong>De-puff  eyes</strong></p>
<p>Trust me I&#8217;ve become a pro at de-puffing eyes. Computer  strain, too little sleep, too much sleep, stress-you name it and it  makes my eyes puff up like a cream cheese wonton. If you&#8217;re looking for a  quick fix that&#8217;s more effective than cucumbers, try a green tea or  black tea bag (it must contain caffeine). Dip it in hot water then toss  it in the freezer for 5 minutes. If you have some foresight pop an  anti-histamine like Benedryl the night before and you&#8217;ll wake up  bag-free. Supplements can help with puffiness too. MSM with Glucosamine,  Flax Oil and Evening Primrose Oil seem to help alleviate puffiness.</p>
<p><strong>Fake  tan streaks</strong></p>
<p>With all the publicity about skin cancer you feel  guilty getting a tan the old fashioned way. So you tried a self-tanner  or maybe you opted for the Mystic Tan booth. Unfortunately you ended up  with the telltale streaks on your arms, legs, feet &#8230; okay everywhere.  Don&#8217;t worry, you don&#8217;t have to wear a turtleneck and pants until it  fades. Hop in the shower right away (some will inevitably come off  anyway) and generously rub down with an exfoliating body scrub followed  by a rigorous scrubbing with a loofah. For really bad cases around the  ankles, feet, elbows and hands (usually the driest parts of your body),  you can use a callous file to eliminate unsightly streaks. We don&#8217;t  recommend incorporating these measures into your regular routine but if  you&#8217;ve got a hot date or a big event you can&#8217;t exactly show up looking  like you got in a fight with a can of orange spray paint either.</p>
<p>Better  yet&#8211;avoid rubbing your skin raw with St. Tropez Self-Tan Remover. Like  magic it removes unsightly stains from your palms and other body parts  if you mess up (the only caveat: it only works up to 4 hours after you  apply self tanner). Find it at Sephora, Bath and Body Works, Victoria&#8217;s  Secret and Red Door Salons.</p>
<p>For a more even self-tanner  application, try Tan Airbrush in a Can. We love it!</p>
<p><strong>Beauty  Improvs</strong></p>
<p>When you don&#8217;t have &#8230;</p>
<ul>
<li>Hair gel  USE &#8230; Lotion</li>
<li>Mascara USE &#8230; Vaseline (it works! Just go light, you don&#8217;t want to  have gloppy lashes)</li>
<li>Zit cream USE &#8230; Perfume for on-the-go/White toothepaste for  at-home use only.</li>
<li>Lip gloss USE &#8230; Vaseline</li>
<li>Neosporan USE &#8230; Honey</li>
<li>Lip plumper USE &#8230; Cayenne pepper</li>
<li>Eye gel USE &#8230; Frozen tea bags</li>

<p>Today&#8217;s generation of fashion designers and beauty companies are  starting a new revolution-the Green revolution. From global warming to  saving Mother Nature and concerns on spendthrift fashion, the 21st  century style is widely &#8220;going green&#8221;.</p>
<p>To these eco-friendly  clothing distributors and cosmetics manufacturers, everything from  dresses down to shoes and makeup has to be earth friendly. Life cycle in  the fashion industry to them is not simply about keeping in touch with  what&#8217;s cool and hip, but more about the concern on what happens to their  wholesale dresses and makeup bottles after they are out of season and  empty.</p>
<p>In Paris, Pedro Lourenco, a budding Brazilian designer  showcased his collection with a theme, &#8220;Diana the Huntress&#8221;. His dresses  clearly depicts of a warrior woman living in close connection with  nature.</p>
<p>Sophia Kokosalaki&#8217;s collection was a reflection of her  childhood days in Greece. The satin pants with rippled fabrics and  dresses ornamented with gold covered matchsticks are a clear depiction  of a burning forest, a clandestine reference to last summer&#8217;s fires in  Greece.</p>
<p>In Los Angeles, last week&#8217;s L. A. Fashion Week showcased  The Green Initiative Humanitarian Fashion Show, which gave designers a  new look in eco-fashion. The show featured eco-friendly designers Emily  Factor, Lizzie Parker, and Puridee.</p>
<p>Emily kicked off the &#8220;green&#8221;  catwalk with her sexy silhouettes which used organic fibers,  non-hazardous dye, and reclaimed materials. Lizzie worked out her  work/night out ensemble using organic fabrics. Her eco-fashion style  combined with exquisite accessories artfully exuded versatility and  flair. Meanwhile, Puridee stomped the runway with fiercely feminine and  alluring organic wedding dresses made of silk that was organically  raised and woven by hand.</p>
<p>Following the fashion designers&#8217; green  revolution is the beauty industry. In a study conducted by Mintel in  2008, forty percent of the women surveyed said that the eco-friendly  packaging of cosmetics matters a lot in their purchasing decision.</p>
<p>The  study brought about a significant change in packing methods and  materials used in beauty products, even in the form of energy used in  the production such as energy-efficient bulbs. Companies are  continuously finding ways to make their products as Earth-friendly as  possible by using organic and renewable substances, e.g., Mineral FX&#8217;s  biodegradable corn resin jar and the recycled jar of Aveda&#8217;s Green  Science Firming Face Cream.</p>
<p>The goal of green revolution is to use  natural resources more sensibly. But is it enough to change the world?  Not entirely. But a stiletto-sized step frontward will take us farther  than expected. The fashion and beauty industry is a highly influential  world. Organic fashion produced for the runway, &#8220;green&#8221; beauty products,  and eco-friendly mass-produced wholesale apparels is surely a sensible  move towards saving our ailing planet.</p>

<p>Many say clothing makes a person, but we still dress shabby every  now and then. It&#8217;s good to put on our best when we are under watch. One  can do that by availing enough resources on fashion and do ones best to  meet with the latest trend.</p>
<p>Clothing is always as important as our  attitude and finding fashions that flatter our body line and skin tone  is quite possible. Shopping for wear is quite cumbersome, we should  absolutely be sure of what we want to buy and our appearance to others.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s  always better to take someone with us when we go shopping and it is  good to go shopping at off peak hours, so we get plenty of space and  racks free to choose from and will always have a fitting room empty with  the a sales girl ready to help us.</p>
<p>Looking thin is a daunting  task and big is not so easy, so the correct selection of clothes  matters. A small gain in weight will make ones clothes feel tighter and  slightly oversize clothing will make you look big. One will have to  strike a balance between the size and the shades.</p>
<p>There are many  tips and hints to look thinner and they can be listed accordingly,</p>
<p>o 	Get a good fit<br />
o	Select dark and solid shades<br />
o	Dress not in patterns but all in one color<br />
o	If you intend to wear patterns, wear small ones that overlap<br />
o	Go for vertical rather than horizontal stripes<br />
o	Avoid shiny clothes like velour or satin<br />
o	High heels add height and shape to legs<br />
o	Skirts should fall right above the knee for longer looking legs<br />
o	Instead of pleats flat pants and skirts should be preferred<br />
o	Select open collar shirts, v-neck shirts and scoop neck lines so  that the torso appears longer<br />
o	Dresses with matching coat can hide bulges<br />
o	To have a flatten tummy look go for a thick waist band</p>
<p>Everyone  has flaws but a few don&#8217;t really want to accept who they are. For those  people they may just want to work on mitigating those flaws. It helps  to stand up straight, have a nice posture and move with grace, for by  doing this, one not only looks taller but also radiate energy, self  confidence and elegance. To know one&#8217;s body and what looks good on it,  use your experience to your advantage and believe in your intuition. At  times fashion and beauty etiquette are natural, feel free to experiment.  Now people have different tastes, some like modern and some vintage,  vintage makes you stand out and it&#8217;s easy and economical and you can  meet your budget, many say, &#8221; I wear vintage, so I can add a little  something retro to my clothing and not look the same as every one else&#8221;.</p>
<p>Just  because one is large doesn&#8217;t mean that one has to wear boring. There  are an increasing number of women who wants to look fashionable and  modern without looking frumpy. Now fashion designers too are listening  to customers and are responding with creating attractive plus-size  fashions, although it&#8217;s difficult to find larger clothing in many parts  of the world or they are very limited. Even more daunting is choosing  appropriate styles that will disguise our flaws and help us look leaner.</p>
<p>There  is excitement all around every spring when new fashions emerge and we  say goodbye to the winter trends. What is interesting is that every new  year, we see some versatile styles that fit within our tight budget.  Hey! It&#8217;s a new year again, let&#8217;s go out and look for those new styles.</p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial;"><a href="http://www.thanksmama.com/Training_Pants_s/3.htm">Baby Training  Pants</a> &#8211; Training pants help your toddler make the transition from  diapers to  underwear.

They are made to be easily pulled up and down  by your child. Visit Thanks Mama  today to order.</span></p>

<p>You don&#8217;t have to travel to Rodeo Drive or the rue du Faubourg  Saint-Honoré to dress in high style.   Nor, do you have to have  unlimited funds.  Smart fashionistas find designer deals in the world&#8217;s  most convenient shopping district &#8211; the Internet.</p>
<p>Before embarking  on a bargain hunt, take an inventory of your closet.  Think about the  clothing you need for your lifestyle.  Are there any items that you need  in order to complete your wardrobe?   If so, give these top priority  when shopping.</p>
<p>Next, take note of what&#8217;s in style.  The net offers  a myriad of fashion blogs, which offer advice from fashion devotees and  industry insiders.  No matter what your style or your budget, you&#8217;re  sure to find a site you will enjoy.  Two popular choices are The Budget  Fashionista and the Sartorialist.  There are also blogs, such as the  Purse Blog, which are devoted to accessories.</p>
<p>Moreover, fashion  magazines, design houses, and cosmetic companies generally have a  presence on the web.  These sites are great sources of information about  style and beauty.</p>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve perused the latest fashion news and  you&#8217;ve jotted down a list of needs, it&#8217;s time to scout for designer  fashions.  A good place to start is Gonicofish.com, a free resource that  connects shoppers with the best prices, discounts, and coupon codes  from over 1,000 carefully selected merchants.</p>
<p>&#8220;I love working with  Fortune 500 companies and quality boutiques to bring shoppers savings  online,&#8221; says Gina Bassman, the company&#8217;s founder and CEO.</p>
<p>Recently,  Gonicofish.com partnered with SmartBargains to bring consumers savings  on Lilly Pulitzer flats, as well as men&#8217;s loafers from Tommy Bahama.   Among the many fashion offerings at Gonicofish.com are savings from  items at Anthropologie, Armani Exchange, Bluefly.com, Brooks Brothers,  Liz Claiborne, Palm Beach Jewelry, Nordstrom&#8217;s, and Macy&#8217;s.</p>
<p>When  hunting for designer deals, look for printable coupons and coupon codes.   Consumers can take printable coupons to brick-and-mortar stores to  obtain discounts.  Coupon codes, on the other hand, are used when making  purchases online.  Shoppers simply type the promotional codes into a  special place on a merchant&#8217;s shopping cart.</p>
<p>You can find coupons  at sites such as Gonicofish.com or Coupon Cabin.   Look for a free  coupon resource which updates its lists on at least a monthly basis.   Otherwise, you may find yourself wading through a number of  disorganized, outdated offers in order to find the one current deal.</p>
<p>Also,  learn about fashion and sale cycles in the fashion industry, as well in  the Internet world.  Designers and clothing manufacturers are always  thinking at least one season ahead of the actual calendar year.  Take  advantage of both monthly and seaonal sales.</p>
<p>Be aware, however,  that some items which are on their way out of style make their way into  both store sale racks and online sale offerings.  This is where the  fashion research you did before shopping pays off.  You&#8217;ll be able to  recognize which items you&#8217;ll enjoy wearing for some time, and which ones  to pass by.</p>
<p>You are generally safe if you buy classic items. The  cut of classic fashion basics tends to change over a slower cycle than  trendier items do.  If you enjoy trends, look for deep discounts on one  or two items in this season&#8217;s hottest color style.  You can pair these  with your wardrobe basics to obtain a cutting edge fashion statement.</p>
<p>Are  you ready to put a little style in your life, and save money to boot?   Take advantage of the Internet.</p>

<p>Jeans, tops, jewelry, bags, shoes, accessories. These are just some  of the basic items that constitute to what women&#8217;s fashion consists of,  and what you will find in the wardrobe of every woman all over the  world. After all, what are women famous for if not for their women&#8217;s  fashion apparel that comes in all sorts of shapes, designs and styles  and is ever changing according to the style trend of the moment.</p>
<p>In  the old days, if women wanted some new fashion or clothing item, they  would manually have to go out to the department store or to their  favourite boutique and pick out what they like.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="body">
<p>I am often surprised by people&#8217;s reaction when I tell them that I  bought my latest dress off the Internet. They cannot understand how I  could take the &#8216;risk&#8217; of buying something so personal online, without  even touching or trying it on first. This is the most common feedback I  get from many friends and relatives when they compliment me on my new  outfit, ask me where I got it from and I tell them&#8230; online!</p>
<p>The  thing is, most of this feedback comes from people who are size 10 or  less and who do not understand how much of a distressing experience  clothes shopping can be for a lady who is size 20.</p>
<p>I remember when  I was younger hating going shopping with cousins or friends. Most of  the time I used to end up being their shopping assistant instead of  their fellow shopper; not finding anything that I liked which was in my  size, would usually leave me no other option. I could not understand why  most stores could not open their eyes real wide and realise that most  women are curvy! It felt (and still does feel) so unfair to me that most  of the fashionable styles of clothing are not available for plus sized  women.</p>
<p>My shopping experience changed from night to day when I  discovered plus size clothing stores online. I could not believe the  amount of stores available online for plus size women. Stores  exclusively carrying plus size fashion; apparel and accessories that  looked good and that was in my size. I was ecstatic at my discovery,  this eased so many of my shopping problems.</p>
<p>I can now say that  over the years the amount of plus size stores available online has grown  tremendously, and the quality of fashion available has definitely  improved. Plus size store online are now able to satisfy all tastes,  occasions and sizes.</p>
<p>I have decided to share these thoughts with  you to encourage fellow plus size women who may be looking for that  special outfit, or who simply want to shop for more clothes, to consider  the option of shopping online because, believe me, it will open many  stylish doors for you!</p>
<p>Here follow my seven essentials reasons why  I personally shop online for most of my clothes and why I am  recommending online shopping to all plus size women.</p>
<p><strong>1. Size  availability</strong></p>
<p>Finally you no longer have to worry about whether  stores carry the item you like in your size, because plus size stores  online cater exclusively to plus size women&#8217;s needs. That is, they  usually carry items from size 12 or 14 to size 48 and above! Most stores  have their own size ranges, as some may stop at size 34 for instance  while others may carry items up to size 50. This usually varies on a  store by store basis.</p>
<p><strong>2. Endless choice of styles</strong></p>
<p>When  you are out and about shopping in the usual stores, you are rather  limited to the styles of clothing available at one store. Some stores  may focus on formal wear rather than casual, and some may not carry  swimwear or lingerie for instance. This inconvenience does not exist  online. Why? Most plus size clothing stores online carry a wide variety  of styles. Plus, it is easy for you whilst you are shopping around  online, to switch from one store to the other if you are looking for a  different style.</p>
<p><strong>3. Ease of shopping</strong></p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know  about you but shopping is one tiring chore; walking around big stores,  out of this one and into the other. By the end of the day your feet will  be aching; makes you wonder why you go into all their trouble in the  first place! Shopping around on the Internet just to see what&#8217;s in  stock, what&#8217;s in fashion and what the price ranges are, can be done at  just the click of a mouse. You can tirelessly click your way from store  to store.</p>
<p><strong>4. Greater selection</strong></p>
<p>When shopping online  for clothes I usually find that I am open to a more vast selection of  items than when I&#8217;m otherwise shopping in usual stores. A store&#8217;s  web-site usually lists all the items available within that particular  store, so you can view everything online. The fashion available to plus  size women online from the various stores available is simply endless;  you will find stores to suit every taste, age and size. You will find  the right store for you!</p>
<p><strong>5. Save those pennies</strong><br />
Looking for the best priced item is much easier online. Imagine you  have found an item that you would like to buy; you could easily make a  note of it by book-marking the page, and before actually buying that  item you can browse around the other plus size clothing stores to check  whether they carry the same or similar items at a cheaper price. There  are also a lot of promotions and sales going on at online plus size  stores. Some stores may choose to keep you updated to their promotions  by emailing you monthly newsletters, which will keep you up to date with  money saving deals, coupons available and discounts.</p>
<p><strong>6.  Friendlier shopping experience</strong></p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know about you but one  thing I really hate is the nasty attitude and looks I get sometimes from  shopping assistants when they tell you, &#8220;Sorry we do not carry that in  your size!&#8221; Seems to me like they need some chocolate in their system!  You will definitely not get any of that from most plus size stores  online, as they understand the needs of big beautiful women and the  friendly customer service reps are usually plus size ladies themselves.</p>
<p><strong>7.  Convenient!</strong></p>
<p>This is definitely my favourite perk of shopping  online. It is simply convenient! You can shop whenever you what, at what  time you want and you can even shop in your pyjamas! You have ample of  time to think about your purchase, look over the items you want to buy  over and over until you make you final decision. It is just all about  you and your time.</p>
<p>Overall shopping online is much more of a  pleasant experience. Personally I shop online for a wide range of stuff,  due to time constraints and everyday life; however even if I had all  the time in the world I would still opt for shopping online when looking  for new clothes and accessories as it is much more of a satisfying  experience. I recommend online shopping at plus size fashion stores to  all the big beautiful women who have trouble finding outfits they really  like and which fit them well. The Internet will make you love shopping  and your figure!</p>

<p>Indian fashion is as diverse as the culture and tradition of the  country. The fashion industry is constantly changing in fashion styles  and trends. Fashion is an age old concept in India and with the changing  generations many styles and trends have come up and disappear. The most  important thing about fashion trends in India is that even though  trends and styles disappear with time but they don&#8217;t get extinct. The  old traditional styles and trends in fashion disappear for one  generation and flourishes again after few generations.</p>
<p>Indian  Fashion was earlier restricted to various styles of sari and suits. The  mid century witnessed some kind of variations in fashion styles. The  present generation is characterized by trendy indo-western styles that  are the right mix of modernity and tradition. This style comprises of a  short top with low waist jeans that shows off tummies and belly buttons.</p>
<p>No  matter how many styles and trends come into limelight but Indian sari  never lose their grace, beauty and elegance. Indian women wearing a sari  look graceful, stylish, elegant and sensuous. This beautiful fashion  attire has seen ages in India and is still emerging in fashion trends of  the country. Sari is simple attire that consists of a single,  rectangular piece of material that constantly changes in looks, styles,  designs and fabrics from generation to generation. Indian saris come in a  range of fabrics starting from cotton to silk, georgettes to crape and  many more. These saris are adorned with various embellishments like  mirror work, zari, embroidery, zardosi, sequence, patch work, pearl  work, kundan and many more. The most popular Indian saris are Benarasi,  Kanjeevaram, Bandhej, chanderi, chikan, hakoba, handloom, baluchari,  patola, phulkari and parsi sarees.</p>
<p>Another most popular and  widespread Indian attire is Salwar Kameez. This fashion leads the Indian  industry today and women wearing these attires look elegant and  graceful. The history of salwar kameez is traced years back to the city  of Punjab and Kashmir but in the later years the trend transcend to all  other parts of the country.</p>
<p>Unique, original and incomparable  Indian designer suits are available in a combination of colors,  patterns, designs and artworks. Some of the most popular forms of salwar  kameez are chikan, zardosi, bandhej, batik and hand prints. These  attires range from casual wear salwar kammez to trendy Indo western  styles to suit women of all ethnicities and age groups.</p>
<p>Not only  women but men are also an integral part of the fashion industry. Earlier  men&#8217;s fashion was believed to be everlasting with some permanent and  classic styles but the current fashion scenario has changed. Now,  various designs and prints like batik, block print and tie &amp; dye  have been introduced to jazz up the look of a man.</p>
<p>India, a  country rich in heritage and culture is believed to have diversity and  authenticity in its fashion styles and trends. Indian fashion industry is  constantly making its way to the peak and is soon to become the largest  industry in the international fashion arena.</p>
