In India, woman's clothing varies widely and is closely associated with the local culture, religion and climate.
Traditional Indian clothing for women in the north and east are saris or ghagra cholis and (lehengas)[citation needed] while many south Indian women traditionally wear sari and children wear pattu pavadai. .
Women started wearing more comfortable clothing and exposure to international fashion led to a fusion of western and Indian styles of clothing.
Women's clothing nowadays consist of both formal and casual wear such as gowns, pants, shirts and tops.
Traditional Indian clothing such as the kurti have been combined with jeans to form part of casual attire. Fashion designers in India have blended several elements of Indian traditional designs into conventional western wear to create a unique style of contemporary Indian fashion.

RETAIL MERCHANDISING
Retail Merchandising• Retail merchandising is the process used in order to conduct retail sales. As part of
the process, the merchandiser pays close attention to the types of products offered for sale, how to best present those products to consumers, and determining what is a reasonable retail price for each unit sold.
• The first important step in retail merchandising is establishing working relationships with manufacturers who will provide the goods or services that are ultimately sold by the retailer. This type of retail buying involves determining what products will be carried in the retail establishment, negotiating the unit price that will be charged by the manufacturer, and arranging for the delivery of those goods.
• Once the goods are secured, the retailer must determine the unit price that he or she will assign to the products. In all cases, this retail price will be higher than the cost of purchasing the goods from the supplier.
• After setting the retail pricing, the process of retail merchandising moves on to the task known as setup and display. Setup and display are often considered especially important with fashion merchandising and similar retail settings, in that the visual display is often the key means of attracting customers who are highly likely to make a purchase.
• Marketing is an important aspect of any retail merchandising strategy. Engaging in a publicity campaign to reach prospective customers may involve something as simple as advertising in local publications as well as electronic advertising on local radio and television stations. Direct mail is also a common strategy in retailing, as the mailings make it possible to reach people in their homes and places of business rather than relying on them to approach the retailer first.
• In order to be successful with retail merchandising, it is necessary to provide consumers with a couple of key benefits. First, the products must be of high quality; this helps to ensure the customer will return for more purchases in the future. Along with the quality, the retailer must also sell the products at prices the consumer finds reasonable. By providing quality products at affordable prices, the retailer has a much better chance of standing out from the competition and remaining in business for many years to come.

The next step in product development is making the first pattern, which is used to cut and sew the first sample garment. The pattern is made in sample size, one is used for testing and selling purpose.
PrototypeThe prototype is made by sample maker, the best of the factory sewers. Sample- makers must have factory sewing skills and know how to put an entire garment together. The factory construction methods must be tested as the garment is sewn.
Fit
The next step is to test the sample for fit and total effect. The ability to create good fit is the most important skill needed in the development of the garment. The garment must be fitted on the model to test comfort and ease of movement .
