Afghani Embroidered Pant

Embroidered Afghani Pant in Pure Cotton

An afghani pant in pure cotton with delicate embroidery and lace at the hem. The afghani cut drapes loose through the hip and gathers at the ankle — comfortable in a way that most bottoms are not. Some people call this a dhoti salwar.

How to wear it

An afghani pant is happiest with a short or straight kurti, so the drape at the hip has room to show. It is an easy pick for travel, a long day out, or a family function where you will be sitting on the floor.

Size and fit

Sizes go by waist measurement: L fits a 30–40 inch waist and XL fits 42–48 inches. The elasticated waistband gives room across each range, and the afghani cut is forgiving through the hip.

Sizes vary by style — please go by the waist measurement, not the letter.

Please order one size up. This material has a tendency to shrink after washing.

Care

Hand-wash in cold water. Wash dark colours separately. Dry in shade, inside out. Do not machine dry.

Frequently asked questions

What is an afghani pant?
It is a stitched bottom that falls loose through the hip and gathers in at the ankle. It is also called a dhoti salwar or dhoti pant. It is one of the most comfortable ethnic bottoms to wear.

Is this the same as a dhoti salwar?
Yes, the two names are used for the same style.

Does it have pockets?
Yes, one pocket on the side.

Is the fabric pure cotton?
Yes, pure cotton with no stretch.

What sizes does it come in?
L and XL, sized by waist: L fits a 30–40 inch waist and XL fits 42–48 inches.

What size should I order?
Please order one size up, because this material tends to shrink a little after washing. And go by your waist measurement in inches, not the letter — the letters differ from style to style.

How long is it?
38 inches.

Does it have an elastic waist?
Yes, the waistband is elasticated, which gives a better fit across the waist range for each size.

Does a kurti come with this pant?
No. It is sold on its own so you can pair it with kurtis you already own.

What kurti goes with an afghani pant?
A short or straight kurti works best, because it lets the drape at the hip show. A long kurti hides the shape of the pant.

How do I wash it?
Hand-wash in cold water, wash dark colours separately, and dry in shade inside out. Do not machine dry.

Do you offer cash on delivery?
Yes, COD is available with a ₹125 cash-handling charge, and we confirm COD orders by phone before dispatch. Prepaid orders above ₹999 ship free within India.

What if the size doesn't fit?
You can raise a size exchange within 24 hours of delivery and ship the garment back by Speed Post within 24–48 hours. We don't arrange pickup — you send it back yourself — and we cover forward shipping on the exchange. Mega-sale purchases aren't eligible for exchange.
