Saraiki shalwar suits

There are two types of Saraiki shalwar suits which originate in the southern area of Punjab, Pakistan.

[citation needed] The Bahawalpuri shalwar originates from the Bahawalpur region of Punjab, Pakistan.

The royal men wore shalwar with coats, made of silk,[4] embroidered in golden patterns.

[8] In the early 20th century A.D. it was traditional for men to wear the angarkha on its own leaving the chest and abdomen exposed, which was locally known as the chola.

[18] Further influence on the Multani shalwar came from Baloch migrants who arrived in Multan during the 15th century from Balochistan, Pakistan.

The Multani shalwar kameez when worn by men is accompanied by a turban known as a patka[25] and/or a scarf draped over the shoulders.
