Two examples of the ways in which European dress codes were
different from Indian dress codes:
→ In Europe, dress codes were enacted on a socio-economic bias, while in India, these
norms were along the lines of caste.
→ While the lower classes in Europe were barred from wearing
specific materials, the lower castes in India were barred from
wearing particular clothes; for example, the Shanar women, who
were disallowed from covering their upper bodies like the higher
caste women.
