Bengali girls and young women are love to dress up in this affordable, practical dress for work and street wear and at parties.
Most Bengalis love to look fresh and bright in cottons on Poila Baisakh to beat the heat. Instead of a saree, you can stand out by going for an attractive, floor-length red and off-white cotton printed salwar suits or an anarkali suit in breathable, light fabrics to feel comfortable and raise your style quotient.
