Rajasthani Traditional Dresses for Men Angrakha and kurta

For guys from Rajasthan, the Angarakha with Kurta is one of the most popular outfits. The Kurta is a long shirt with either full or half sleeves, and the Angarakha is a traditional jacket with numerous layers that cross at the chest and waist. Both outfits are ideal for ceremonies and other formal events since they have beautiful embroidery running along the seams. Rajput or Rajasthani men’s traditional attire is embodied in Angrakha. It’s the high-end take on the basic cotton kurta worn by regular men. The clothing’s name means “protecting the body” literally. The fabric used to make this upper-body garment is typically cotton.

In Rajasthan, males wear one of two types of angrakha. One has a frock-like design and is mid-thigh length. Kurtas, or straight, knee-length clothing, are the other type. These outfits are tailored to be comfortable and breathable in the summer heat. Angrakhas can occasionally be embellished with geometric circular patterns or mirror work to make them exquisite and appropriate for special events.
