Khet partug (Pashto: خت پړتوګ, khət paṛtūg), or khat partoog, is a type of shalwar kameez traditionally worn in Afghanistan and the mostly Pashtun dominated parts of western and northwestern Pakistan.[1]
Design
Khet
The khet is the upper garment which is loose and slightly tightened at the waist and is more like a tunic or a robe, similar to a smock with wide sleeves and reach below the knees.[2][3] The khet does not traditionally have side slit,[4] and is worn with a belt at the waist.[5]
Partug
The partug is the lower garment which is very loose and full of pleats, with folds all around the waist and made of yards of material.[6] Khet partug is also similar to the costume worn by men dancing the attan.[7]
The khet partug is different from the perahan tunban (Persian: پیراهن و تنبان pērāhan wa tunbān).
