Cant we get rid of this saree as an official uniform of our lady officers? Is Shalwar suit any less graceful?
How about the same question for male officers- they wear firangi uniform-

but still saris have killing look on slim bodies,especially black one8-)

The killing look of a sari wont win you any war-

They do not wear firangi uniform per se but Turkish attire. Pantaloon (later pair of pants) was Turkish attire for their troops.

Following is an interesting read entitled "Ottoman Influences in Western Dress" by Charlotte Jirousek.

Sari only started recently, in fact it started from the tv stars, singers rather than the common "Muslim polished gentry" :coffee: ...Even some of the elderly of my family used to wear Gharara....I have never seen them wear Sari and some of these elderly of my family were actually born in India and brought up there....
Because the so-called Muslim polished gentry was the reminiscence of the Mughal ruling elite that was heavily influenced by the Turkic (Central Asian) and Persian cultures (during and after Humayun's reign). Their attire (if someone could get chance to see it in the National museum Lahore) was the attire of Central Asians and of Persians and not of those who they had conquered i.e. Indians. It is pretty logical that conquerors, being superior, impose their culture on those who they have conquered rather than accepting the culture of their subjects. Of-course Hindu women were also entered in the harems of the Mughal rulers hence they had some cultural influence but by in large the culture of the ruling elite of the Mughal empire was the culture of the Turks and the Persians hence the official language was Trukic and Persian and not Sanskrit or any other local language. Moreover saree being a revealing dress would be unacceptable for Muslims in general and ruling elite in particular who were strictly practicing segregation in India. Oscar mentioned that Shalwar suit was traditionally for women working in the field. Well that might be true for Sikh women in Punjab but what about the majority of Hindu women? what was their dress? of-course it was saree and in the villages, mostly without a blouse. Saree was mostly draped by the Muslims of Bengal, and not by the Muslims of Uttar Pardesh where the capital was located or the surrounding areas such as Lucknow.

I will highly suggest the reading of a book entitled 'Dilli jo ek sheher tha' by Mulla Wahidi. There are ample glimpses of Muslim culture in pre-1947 India particularly in Delhi.

I am sure that there are numerous couples like that in armed forces all across the world, but the blind infatuation with military in Pakistan is almost nauseating.
