- Indian men mostly wear very loose fitting shirt called kurta with under wear called dhoti. A traditional kurta is collarless and falls to about the knee of the wearer. The sleeves also are loose. Kurta is simply constructed of two rectangular pieces of fabric, one is for the front and another one is for the back. They usually open in the front with button or tie closures in the middle of the garment or just off to one side. Some styles feature buttons or closures at the shoulder seam instead of down the center.
