378 S1NDIAN DRESS.
The men's dress consists of a loose shirt, a pair of trowsers
puckered at the ancles, and a quilted cotton or cloth cap, in shape
like the crown of a hat, ornamented with flowers of silk or gold
round the bottom. That of the women is very similar, with the
exception of the cap; beside, underneath their shifts they wear
a silk jacket, made to fit the form, that laces behind, and when
abroad, a Saree or cloth that wraps round the body, having one end
brought over the crown of the head, whereby it serves as a veil to
cover up the face when they meet strangeis.
