Chunni or Dupatta: A wrap or scarf worn with Indian garments.
Lehenga: A Lehenga is a long skirt which reaches down to the ankles. It is worn with a choli and a chunni

Salwar Kameez: Salwars are loose pajama like trousers. The legs are wide at the top, and narrow at the bottom. The kameez is a long shirt or tunic. The side seams (known as the chaak) are left open below the waist-line, which gives the wearer greater freedom of movement
Kundan: Stones or crystals for use in embroidery, available in many colours.
Zardozi: Gold thread embroidery using metallic elements and threads, sometimes mirrors, precious or semi precious stones
Ghunghat : The chunni or dupatta is worn over the head during the wedding ceremony.
