With seeing the craze of lungi among the people, many fashion designers are using it for their ramp shows as it was recently used in Wills lifestyle fashion week by Wendell Rodricks. The designers are designing these lungis in more different ways and styles to give it a makeover. It has become a style statement now.
In the above picture it shows a man wearing a lungi and the same type of lungi is further designed into a dress worn by the girl, and if we don’t compare the girls attire to the men wearing lungi no one can say that the girl’s attire is made up from lungi.
