Solution

Today, traditional clothes like sarees, salwar kameez, and dhotis continue to be worn along with Western clothes like jeans and shirts. This shows both continuity and change in clothing styles.

The main reasons for these changes are globalisation, changing lifestyles, the need for comfort, the influence of media and popular culture, the availability of different fabrics, economic factors, and cultural exchange. People also adopt clothing styles from different regions and cultures.

Thus, traditional clothing has been retained, while modern fashion has brought new styles and changes.
