are not an immoral piece of clothing...😆
Purvi's backless blouses are not immoral but a recent fashion trend in Kolkata..😳
Its been the trend in last 4-5 yrs in Kolkata. Ladies get such blouses tailored with fancy cutout designs in the back and on the sleeves. Many of my lady friends (all respectable, married ladies😆) did get such blouses tailored and wear them to Pujas, functions and parties.
Its the IN thing now...in fact one of my friends got a blouse tailored, exactly like Purvi's, with the tassle at the neck and hooks fastening down below.
This trend in backless blouses amongst Bengali ladies has been influenced by the huge Marwari/ Rajasthani community in Kolkata. Their Chaniya choli is completely backless with only strings attaching the 2 sides throughout. Fancy cutouts on sleeves are also inspired from Choli style.
Many tribal women in Rajasthan and Gujrat wear those completely backless blouses attached only by strings, that is the Choli style. Its a traditional thing in many states so adapted by latest fashion designers across the country including Kolkata.
And Purvi's style of wearing saris is also common in Bengal, especially in traditional homes and in villages. My late Saas used to wear it that style at home, our grandmas, grand-aunts all wore sari that style at home and even outside. Its called the Gharoa style in Bengali which means "Homely" style.
Nowadays many fashionable ladies and girls wear benarasi or kantha saris Gharoa style to weddings and religious functions. Many traditional fashions are coming back into vogue like the gharoa style and choli style blouses.
I hope Purvi's dressing confusion is cleared now...😃
