Hi B-),
No photo-- but your request is a good excuse to make another trip

to
the fabric store this week. :-)) I'll check the pattern book,to see

if
there is a similar pattern to what DD was wearing.
Think of a very long--ankle length--Nehru jacket, only not so

tight.
But the outfit did have a very small stand-up collar, and a couple of
buttons for center front closures. From about 4 or 5 inches above the
waist, it was open to the floor--no buttons, no over-lap of fabric.
(Being over 40, and larger that a size 12, I'd change this feature ,
adding lap, and buttons to below the waist--provided I could find my
waist!!)
The side slits can end anywhere you want--DD's ended about the hip
area. The sleeves were long.
You could use any slim-fitting pants pattern- if very slim, and
ending at the ankles, add a vent feature, so you can get your foot

into
the legs.
The thin, floaty fabric is a must. And you are right, this style
would make a great beach cover-up.
You might try the costume site that is recommended for the salwar
kameez pants; they'll likely have the Indian outfit, too.
I'll let you know if I turn up a pattern from the books.

Cea, I'm very interested in your DD's outfit. Do you have a photo

of
it, or a reasonable facsimile? Besides a cape and a swimsuit

cover-up,
I'd also love to sew myself a swanky summer outfit!

Hi Stefani,
I saw some beautiful bordered silks--sari-type--in
Joann's fabric shop.Reasonably priced, too. They caught my eye,

because
DD showed up last summer
wearing a very stylish, cool, floaty Indian style garb: long,

split-side
over-tunic, in a semi-sheer gauzy fabric, with slim, tapered pants
beneath.
I was envious; despite the heat, she looked
cool, and stylishly chic. It would help, though, if you described
the pants. Are they the style
which are very voluminous, and drape across the front of the body?

What
type of fabric, and weight, would that call for?
If a pattern is not available, perhaps you could trace one
off the pair you already own?

Salwar kameez pants
(Stefani276)
I have recently become enamored of the Indian garments called

'salwar
kameez'. I own one and it is lived in a lot. I want to make some

more,
and in fact own some patterns that are quite suitable. The problem is
the patterns do not have the authentic pants pattern. Does anyone

know
of a source to obtain this pants pattern, or any authentic salwar

kameez
pattern? Also, if anyone knows of a source to buy these beautiful
fabrics, I'd be grateful if you'd point me in that direction. Thanks

for
any assistance.

I have been using Homeindia for my purchases of Indian apparel and
jewelry. I must say..their customer service is excellent and the
prices quite reasonable.

In article , Monica
Shah of http://groups.google.com uttered
I have been using

snip
for my purchases of Indian apparel and jewelry. I must say..their
customer service is excellent and the prices quite reasonable.


Blatant advert snipped

This doesn't alter the fact that a) advertising is *inappropriate* in
this forum (see charter)
b) the original offending post was dead until you resurrected it. One
can only assume that, in fact you have some business interest there. Odd
how after the first spam, *nobody* here asked for information/ opinions
about them.

I must have forgotten the original post, but I thought it was hysterical
that they spammed the group with it and then told about their message
thing and sayign that spam would strictly not be tolerated. Too bad
they couldn't take their own advice.
