Sikher Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 What did they wear Pre-British Raj? Obviously today most Sikh men wear trousers and suits with tied up beard's etc Has anyone any pictures of types of dress before the raj times for Sikhs? If this makes sense 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niranjana Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 chola actually came as a dress much later as indeed did the Kurta (particularly the 'churida' variety, which is of another foreign influence, this time Moghul). Traditional Sikh dress can we considered as a full sized Kachera, Dastaar/Patka (of course with kamarkasa for the kirpan) and in the colder climates a shawl or blanket to cover the upper body. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
