Pajami  (leggings bottoms):  They are also called churidar chooridar.  The churidar churidaar/ pyjami are of a slim-fitting style which is worn by both men and women in South Asia and Central Asia.  They are worn very close to the leg (rather like skinny jeans).  Pajami is the bottom part of the dress in the form of trousers.  The pleats at the thighs allow for comfort and the churidar narrows below the knee, so that contours of the leg are revealed.  They are also cut longer than the leg, the excess length gathers at the ankles and appears like "choori" (Bangles), "dar" (like).  The churidar is usually worn with a kameez (shirt) by women or a kurta ( a loose shirt) by men.  There is drawstring for tying at the waist level. 

To get your size in pajami or churidar:

1. Please check your foot circumference from bottom of the heel and around the top of your foot (where your leg ends on the front around the ankles that will give you the foot opening. 

2. Measure the calf around

3. Hip around

4. Waist around

Salwar ( pants ) or shalwar bottoms on the other side cut wide at the top and narrow at the ankle. Salwar is the bottom part of the dress, in the form of trousers.  There is drawsting for tying at the waist level.
