Indian traditions have been around for years and years at a time, and Mita knows. When reading the short story “Clothes” by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni, Mita shows that moving to America is not the future she predicted, but not necessarily a bad one. Mitas new sari symbolizes new beginnings, her new husband, and her memory of her old home.
Traditions control how one talks and interacts with others in one’s environment. In Bengali society, a strict code of conduct is upheld, with dishonor and isolation as a penalty for straying. Family honor is a central part to Bengali culture, and can determine both the financial and social standing of a family. Usha’s family poses no different, each member wearing the traditional dress of their home country, and Usha’s parents diligently imposing those values on their daughter. Those traditions, the very thing her [Usha] life revolved around, were holding her back from her new life as an American. Her mother in particular held those traditions above her. For example, when Aparna makes Usha wear the traditional attire called “shalwar kameez” to Pranab Kaku and Deborah’s Thanksgiving event. Usha feels isolated from Deborah’s family [Americans] due to this saying, “I was furious with my mother for making a scene before we left the house and forcing me to wear a shalwar kameez. I knew they [Deborah’s siblings] assumed, from my clothing, that I had more in common with the other Bengalis than with them” (Lahiri ...
First, new materials like metal clay, polymer clay, natural clay, ivory, bones, shells, wood, enamel, plastics and glass are being used.

In chapter five of Suitably Modern, Mark Liechty discusses the action of “doing fashion” and how it affects the middle class and consumption in Kathmandu. Chapter five poses the question; what is new and what is not? This concerns the class distinctions and if modernization is actually occurring. The middle class in Kathmandu is claiming its own domain through clothing and ostracizing themselves. The author deems this action as adornment he defines it by stating, “It is used to set individuals and groups apart from some and to signal sameness”. Adornment can be a class distinction but also a gender role distinction. Women practice adornment to be indifferent in their relationships with men. For example women can chose to use flashier make-up which can distinguish a married woman from an unmarried woman. Liechty associates fashion with freedom. Film coming to Kathmandu quickly generated the modernization of fashion and consumption. Films exposed the residents to different types of fashion. Ultimately, the middle class wants its own cultural zone; through fashion and consumption it hopes to completely fit in with one another and still be distinct from other classes.
In the short story, “Clothes” written by Chitra Banerjee Divakarumi, Sumita, a young Indian woman, experiences the transitions of her marital relationship. Before the ‘bride-viewing’, when the groom picks out his bride from a group of women, Sumita performs a purifying ritual in a lake with the help of her friends. She is chosen by Somesh Sen, the visiting groom, and moves with him to his home in California. Initially afraid of her new husband, she eventually grows to love him as she learns about the American culture. As she slowly adjusts to her new environment, Sumita eventually fears herself becoming westernized, such as trying on clothes that she would never wear in India, and tries to hold on to her traditional Indian ways.

ix. Since India already enjoys 80-85 per cent of the world CPD market, scope for further growth in diamond exports is limited. Hence, if India's gems and jewellery sector is to substantially increase exports, the best bet lies in the jewellery sub-sector. Given the fact that the global market for stone-studded jewellery is expanding, there is scope for expansion in India’s diamond-studded jewellery exports as well.

From a historic point of view, Western travelers had remarked on the slow pace of lifestyle and fashion change in Turkey and Persia. On the other hand, many people were of the opinion that the western culture is getting out of hand in terms of dressing fashion (Cumming 234). In most cases, change of fashion and dressing style took place hand in hand with economic and social changes. In the developing world, changes in fashion began with the coming of the whites in Middle East. Changes began in the 11th century when the Turks came to central Asia and Far East.

After the advent of change in men fashion, it was followed by changes in female c...
