kameez

Long loose shirt

A kameez is a long tunic worn in South Asia, typically reaching to the knees or below.

It's most commonly seen as part of the shalwar kameez, paired with loose trousers.

Both men and women wear it, though styles differ—women's versions are often more fitted and elaborately decorated.
