designer kurti and kurtas, designer kurta, designer kurti

While shopping for kurta sets or designer kurti and kurtas online, do you often get confused about what you really wish to buy? Is it a kurta or a Kurti that you want? Are you looking for a designer kurti or a designer kurta?

Well, there are really very few differences between the two, and people often mistake them for each other. It’s not really an answer that everyone understands or even remembers. But when shopping online, it is important that you know how to differentiate between the two. So, let’s move forward toward the answer to this universal question.

Oxford Dictionary of English defines a kurta as “a loose collarless shirt worn by people from South Asia, usually with a salwar, churidars or pajama.” Now you must be wondering, “Isn’t that what a Kurti to is?” Well, you’re right. But there are minor but notable differences.

One of the notable facts about “kurtas” is that it was traditionally worn by males, especially during the medieval period. Although the kurtas did look feminine by the way it was designed, they were mainly worn by men during that time. At that time, the feminine counterpart of a kurta was a “Kurti”. Basically, the word Kurti has been derived from the word kurta. The word “kurta” is derived from the Urdu language. In the Persian language, it is called “kurta”.

Today, both kurta and Kurti are used interchangeably. But the only difference that we’ve been referring to is the length of the garment. The longer garment is called kurta and the shorter garment is called a Kurti. These kurtas and Kurtis come in different types and silhouette styles.

Let’s look at some examples to get a better idea about the difference.

These two garments look quite different from each other, yet they are essentially the very same garment. The image on the left is a kurta and the image on the left is a kurti. A difference that is instantly recognizable between the two garments is their length. The kurta is longer and the kurti is shorter.

Both of these can be worn to a casual event; however, we’d suggest that you pick the kurta as your fancy attire for an important event. You can go for the kurtis when you’re going for an important meeting with a client or just going to office. Go for these two outfits from Shree – She is Special.
