New Anarkali Shalwar Kameez

New Anarkali Shalwar Kameez  
Speculated what the latest fashion trend is in this celebratory season? Well, certainly it has to be the Anarkali  salwar  suits, back in fashion after a extended time and how! fashion is today becoming very fashionable in India and between most of the NRI women as well.


But do we know the history of how this splendid outfit got its name as the “Anarkali salwar kameez“?Well, Anarkali (“pomegranate blossom”) was a renowned slave girl from Lahore (Pakistan) during the Mughal era.She was a performer and dancer at the palace of the Emperor Akbar.
She was allegedly ordered to be buried alive by the Emperor for having an illegitimate love affair with Prince Salim, who later became the royal leader Jahangir. The dance called mujra was famed at that time.
