Tunic, or women’s tops, is a very popular fashion statement. A tunic is a women’s top that starts at the shoulders and the hem ends anywhere from the hips to the ankles. The most commonly worn tunic, or kurtis, will end somewhere between the hips and the mid-thigh. Kurtis are made of light materials usually like cotton or thin silk; although they have been know to be made from thicker materials as well, like wool, to accommodate for colder weather. The great thing about tunics that they can come in countless patterns, colors, and designs that are always eye-catching and classy. Whether bright or neutral, tunics always can add to an outfit in a positive way and it is sure to be able to express one’s own personal sense of fashion and personality.
A common pattern among tunic is paisley. A paisley print tunic is not only noticeable, but also a fun way to show off a kurti. Paisley is shaped like a twisted droplet and has a vegetable or flower motif. This pattern originates from India and Persia, and looks very similar to half of the classic Yin Yang sign. However, interestingly enough, the name is derived from a town in Scotland named Paisley. Paisley print is used in many countries and cultures for many reasons; however, a paisley print tunic most often alludes to the long used Sanskrit design to resemble the mango. For a long time, paisley has been associated with Hinduism. Paisley patterns are still very popular despite its long history.
Thus, a paisley print tunic often has a pattern that is woven with gold or silver threads and has been used in celebrations around the world. Often the paisley pattern is on high quality fabrics like silk. The botanical feel of a paisley print tunic allow for its wearer to give off a fresh and bright appearance that will ultimately make the wearer stand out from the crowd!
Most kurtis that are paisley print are fun, bright colors that can be worn during the day. Traditionally, a paisley print tunic was worn in celebration for weddings and other special events, however, now the enjoyable pattern is worn by many to show off their sunny personality. A paisley print tunic will often be worn during the day. It is not a popular design to wear at night or really formal events like business meetings as it is more worn for going out with friends and family, celebration and more casual events. A paisley print tunic is great to be paired with jeans or any other type of plain skirt, shorts, or pant. Accessories are also a great way to dress up a kurti along with shoes that will accentuate the dazzling pattern and awesome colors of the paisley print!
