Dhotis are loose trousers worn by Indian men. They are rectangular cut cloth pieces traditionally made up of cotton or linen. They are worn by wrapping around the entire waist and legs and lastly pulled together and knotted or tucked in behind and in the front. On the other hand, formal ones are fashioned out of superior fabrics such as silk and have embroidered borders. Classic white cotton ones are the everyday wear worn by men as they are more comfortable and cooler. Most dhotis are white and have a single line of any colour running across about five cm away from the border. They are known by different names across India, such as Dhofar in Marathi, Pancha in Kannada, Veshti in Tamil, Munda in Malayalam, and Laacha in Punjabi. It is mostly combined with a kurta, angavastram, chokka, or jubba, which are traditional top wear for men. Men typically wear them at religious functions and marriage ceremonies. The latest dhotis have broader embroidered borders which make the cloth look royal and vibrant. You can buy them online from brands like Vastramay, Fanzi, Larwa, Prakasam Cotton, Vinayakaa Cotton, and many more, and have them delivered to your doorstep.
