Personally, I cant toss something together for the low prices that our local Indian shops sell and tailor for. My recommendation is to choose the salwar kamees from their stock (they'll be pre-embellished) then have the shop tailor to fit. A Choli should cost US$20-30. You have a choice of dozens of neckline & sleeve styles; it'll probably be ready in a day or 3. I just cant beat that and it gives me more time to do something vintage European. Granted, I live in Silicon Valley, home of the largest Indian population outside India. --cin Cynthia Barnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
