There are different patterns and styles of salwar kameez which the fashion designers have come up with. Among all the salwar suits Patiyala suits are the best because it is the most trendy and comfortable form of dressing, blending the tradition and modernity. The essence of this salwar kameez lies in its typical salwar design. Patiyala pattern of salwar-kameez was originated in the royal city of Punjab. The reason can be found in the fact that a lots of cloth is required to make this salwar. It needs about 4.5 meters as compared to 2.25 meters required for salwars of traditional salwar suits. Common man could not afford to get about 7 meters of fabric for making only one salwar suit set. 
Therefore, it was restricted to the royal and rich families. Patiala salwar with lots of pleats is also referred to as Patiala "Shahi" salwar since it was worn by the shahi (royal) people of Patiala city in state of Punjab. There is a vast difference between the cutting pattern of the Wedding Salwar suit and the patiyala suit. Its distinguishing characteristic is folds of cloth stitched together that meet at the bottom. The "paijama" or the salwar is is very heavy compared to the common salwar because it consists of numerous folds accumulated around the waist. Now a days semi patiyala has also come up into style where the circumference is somewhat lesser near the waistline. This was done keeping in mind the comfort related to weight of the salwar. The kurta is a tight fitting, straight cut. The length of the kurta rests few inches above the knee. The sleeves may be of various styles like short sleeves, puff sleeves, 3-quarters and even sleeve less.The glamour more added to the suit is due to the dupatta of the Salwar Kameez, with heavy patch work.Different bollywood heroines have worn in different movies. In the recent movie "jab we met" acted by kareena kapoor we can see huge range of patiyala suits. Those were beautifully decorated.
