Comment s’habiller en Inde ?

How to dress in India? India is open to other cultures. But keep in mind that when you travel there, you have to adapt to the country and respect the rules.

“The dress does not make the monk” This saying is not necessarily true in India.

This article will help you understand how to dress in a way. Thus, you will feel comfortable and not suffer any remarks or glances during your stay.

How to dress in India? Suggestions for women:

* Wear tee-shirts covering the shoulders and cotton shorts (at knee height minimum). Harem pants, flowing pants and long skirts will also fit.

** In general, avoid mini shorts. This can be acceptable if you are traveling with a group of friends or a man. We advise you not to wear it when traveling to villages that are not used to meeting strangers.

*** Tank tops and other sleeveless tops are usually to be avoided.

**** For the beaches of Goa or Kerala, dress as you wish.

***** Keep with you a light scarf or shawl. This could be convenient for covering your head, or shoulders when necessary. In addition, it will allow you to mop up during hot weather.

Suggestions for men:

* Nothing is to be avoided but it is unusual to wear short shorts for men, so prefer Bermuda shorts. In addition, cotton clothing will help you withstand the heat better.

Whether you are a man or a woman, you will have to cover yourself completely (except the forearms and the face) to enter the temples and mosques.
