  • Chapter 3 Methodology…
    Chapter 3 Methodology… Methodology….. CHAPTER III METHODOLOGY The research being descriptive and analytical in nature, a longitudinal research design was planned to accomplish the framed objectives. The study had been divided into three different phases. The detailed historical research was conducted during the first phase while the second phase included the collection and documentation of the data. Earnest efforts for the preservation and popularization of the traditional royal costumes were made during the third phase of research. The organized research procedure that would be accomplishing the present study is mentioned as follows: 3.1 Selection of topic The present research had started with an inspiring thought of investigator’s master’s dissertation work and experiences. The researcher had seen various researches and documentation of Indian royal costumes especially of princely states of Rajasthan and Gujarat and found that the dearth of information was available on the royal costumes of Kachchh which led researcher towards its investigation. The present research had taken its shape as a researcher came across royal heritage of Kachchh for taking it into the limelight and preserving it in a decent manner for future generation. Moreover, the statement of the problem identified as Documentation of traditional costumes of rulers of Kachchh. The rulers of Kachchh were not as popular as other princely state rulers. The word “royal costume” provides an impression of luxurious fabrics, embellishments, and royalty. There could be the difference in these elements in royal costumes of Kachchh compared to other ruler’s costume. Kachchh’s geographical location has Rajasthan one end and Sindh Pakistan at the other end as neighboring states which could have influenced the costumes.

  • Traditional Clothes of the Country(Joint
    Message froM PRESIDENT Dear Rotaractors, Warm Rotaract Greetings from Rotaract Club of Thane North (RID 3142- India) We are glad sharing an editorial space with you and find great pleasure introducing the Traditional attire of our country. As you know India is a diverse country and has 29 states and 7 union territories. Every state has their own diverse language and traditional attire. We even have diversity in religion maximum people following Hinduism and the rest being Islam, Christianity and Sikhism; leave aside the other tribes which have their own traditional attire. Living in such a diversified country it is difficult to write about the entire traditional clothing, but here I will just try giving you a glimpse of the same. For men, traditional clothes are the Achkan/Sherwani, Bandhgala, Lungi, Kurta, Angarkha, Jama and Dhoti or Pajama. Additionally, recently pants and shirts have been accepted as traditional Indian dress by the Government of India. In India, women's clothing varies widely and is closely associated with the local culture, religion and climate. Traditional Indian clothing for women in the north and east are saris worn with choli tops; a long skirt called a lehenga or pavada worn with choli and a dupatta scarf to create an ensemble called a gagra choli; or salwar kameez suits, while many south Indian women traditionally wear sari and children wear pattu langa. Saris made out of silk are considered the most elegant. Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay, is one of India's fashion capitals. In many rural parts of India, traditional clothes is worn.

Meher Castelino reports. G here has been constant talk in the past few years in India, abroad and at several seminars and discussions on how to protect the environment. This has led to many projects that have tried to figure out N how fast fashion can be slowed down. In turn, it is now being debated how the fashion industry, which is the most polluting, can make use of itsT discarded garments and turn them into new creations. What happens to all the old clothes that are discarded by the fashion- conscious? Are those just waste, or can they be used with inventive ideas? What happens to all the leftover fabrics in factories after the garments are made? A beginning to this end was made at the Lakmé Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2017 season through the concept of using old clothes to create new ones with the top designers like Rajesh Pratap Singh and Abraham and Thakore leading the way.

  • Fairs & Festivals, Part VII-B, Vol-XIV, Rajasthan
    PRG. 172 B (N) 1,000 CENSUS OF INDIA 1961 VOLUME XIV .RAJASTHAN PART VII-B FAIRS & FESTIVALS c. S. GUPTA OF THE INDIAN ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE Superintendent of Census Operations, Rajasthan 1966 PREFACE Men are by their nature fond of festivals and as social beings they are also fond of congregating, gathe­ ring together and celebrating occasions jointly. Festivals thus culminate in fairs. Some fairs and festivals are mythological and are based on ancient traditional stories of gods and goddesses while others commemorate the memories of some illustrious pers<?ns of distinguished bravery or. persons with super-human powers who are now reverenced and idealised and who are mentioned in the folk lore, heroic verses, where their exploits are celebrated and in devotional songs sung in their praise. Fairs and festivals have always. been important parts of our social fabric and culture. While the orthodox celebrates all or most of them the common man usually cares only for the important ones. In the pages that follow an attempt is made to present notes on some selected fairs and festivals which are particularly of local importance and are characteristically Rajasthani in their character and content. Some matter which forms the appendices to this book will be found interesting. Lt. Col. Tod's fascinating account of the festivals of Mewar will take the reader to some one hundred fifty years ago. Reproductions of material printed in the old Gazetteers from time to time give an idea about the celebrations of various fairs and festivals in the erstwhile princely States. Sarva Sbri G.

  • Chapter 5 Summary & Conclusions…
    ….. Chapter 5 Summary & Conclusions… Summary and conclusion….. CHAPTER V SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION Indian children of past generations grew up on a plethora of fascinating stories that often began with the phrase, “Ek tha Raja”- once upon a time there was a King. Many of these tales were from the Puranas, the Mahabharata, and other ancient treatises. The princely rulers of India, with their opulent places and extravagant lifestyles, have been a source of fascination for centuries. Providence, it would seem, had created them with the sole intention of offering mankind a spectacle, a dazzling vision of marble palaces, costumes and jewels. The word “ruler’s costume” conjures up a vision of splendor and magnificence: ropes of pearls, huge diamonds, jeweled turbans, elaborately carved furniture, shimmering textiles in every imaginable color. Some details are particular to a group and have become part of the textiles that identify their owners. (Dwivedi S,1999) Royal costumes explore India's cultural identity via illustrating the textile traditions laid forth by the royal families.
