Veshti alias dhotis as we all know the symbol of common man and it is the identity of farmers who went to work in the field on day to day basis.
Veshti took many forms of wearing according to the class of people who embraced it in day to day life. The merchants and traders had a different style. The warriors wore it in a different style and so did the kings of and royal clans.
It originated in India but today they are common across other countries as well.
They still mark their traditional attire for important events like weddings or swearing-in ceremonies to show off its significance which dates back centuries ago when people associated this cloth with royalty
The ancient Indian garments known widely by names such Dhatura (with an “h”) & Dar (Which is none other than Veshti wrapped in a different style) dress have been used among Maldives' elite classes since before British rule began on these shores; we recall reading how leaders there would don them at annual celebrations marking new year beginning till just recently.
India is a country that has been influenced by the west and their traditions. People in this area of South Asia have imbibed much into what we know today about fashion, architecture or culture; even though many still retain traditional clothes for special occasions like weddings especially pure silk dhoti (or other large events) , it cannot be denied that dhoti is irrefutable part of our culture.
When Molly wood super star Mammootty was roped in as brand ambassador for Minister White, it created ripples of impact creating new identity for veshti.
Dhoti has gone through various transformations from a four yard cloth in the hip pants to traditional panchakacham.
