Punjabi ghagra suit

The Punjabi ghagra (Punjabi: ਘੱਗਰਾ) is a four-piece outfit^[1] known as tewar or 'ti-or' which was traditionally worn by Punjabi women throughout the Punjab region with the outfit comprising a head scarf (Phulkari), kurta or kurti,^[2] ghagra (long skirt) and either a suthan (baggy trousers with a tight band around the ankles) or the Punjabi salwar (trousers).^[3] In modern times, the ghagra is worn by women in parts of Haryana, rural parts of south West Punjab,^[4] parts of Himachal Pradesh^[5] and during performances of Giddha in East Punjab.^[6]
