Origin

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. [1] [2] The khet does not traditionally have side slits, [3] and is worn with a belt at the waist. [4]
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. [5] Khet partug is also similar to the costume worn by men dancing the attan. [6]
