'''Anarkali Shalwar suit''' is a form of women's dress originating from the [[Indian subcontinent]]. The Anarkali suit is made up of a long, frock-style top and features a slim fitted bottom. The Anarkali suit varies in many different lengths and embroideries including floor-length Anarkali styles.<br />
<br />
Anarkali suits owe their name to the fictional [[Anarkali]], a courtesan in the court of [[Mughal Empire|Mughal]] emperor [[Akbar]]. In legend, she was murdered for her illicit relationship with the Crown Prince Salim, who later become the Emperor Jahangir.<ref>http://dawn.com/2012/02/12/legend-anarkali-myth-mystery-and-history/</ref><br />
<br />
The word Anarkali literally means the ‘delicate bud of the pomegranate flower/ tree’. This name signifies the qualities of softness, vulnerability, innocence, and beauty associated with the women who wore Anarkalis. <br />
