AprShopping for Indian clothing from Indian stores versus
shopping for Indian clothing from stores in the USA can have several
differences.
Ø
Firstly, shopping for Indian clothing from
Indian stores can provide a more authentic and traditional shopping experience.
Indian stores in India typically have a wider range of products and styles
available that are specific to the local culture and customs. This can include
different fabrics, designs, and embroidery styles that may not be as readily
available in stores in the USA.
Ø
Secondly, shopping for Indian clothing from
Indian stores in India can often be more affordable compared to shopping in the
USA. This is because Indian stores in India typically have lower overhead costs
and can offer products at lower prices as a result.
The prices of Indian clothing can vary greatly depending on
various factors such as the type of clothing, the fabric used, the brand, and
the location of the store. However, as a general example, I can provide some
approximate price comparisons of Indian clothing from India versus the USA:
Ø
For example, a simple cotton salwar kameez (a
traditional Indian outfit consisting of a tunic top and pants) may cost around
INR 800-1500 (approximately USD 11-20) in India, while a similar outfit in a
store in the USA may cost around USD 30-50.
Ø
A more elaborate and intricately embroidered
silk saree (a traditional Indian garment worn by women) can cost anywhere from
INR 5,000-30,000 (approximately USD 70-400) in India, while a similar saree in
a store in the USA may cost around USD 200-500 or more.
