Difference Between a Sharara and a Gharara

SHOP NOW

Many women have a difficult time knowing the difference between a sharara and a gharara. Both are traditional wear and fit for any type of occasion. They were created in the Mughal era and are still worn in the modern world of 2022. A sharara is a one-piece bottom that resembles a skirt with a flared trouser which is wide. A sharara can be compared with a palazzo because both are stitched more or less the same way. However, a gharara includes two parts that are actually separate but are joined with each other at the knee area. This joint area is hidden with the help of embroidery or lace. A gharara is stitched in a different way than the sharara. It is also tighter and fitting at the thigh area whereas the sharara is flexible and wide.
