Today the Indian fashion and the dressing sense of Indian people are also being influenced by the western culture and fashion. The fashion shows that are conducted within the country too are based on the western clothing and these are the only ones that are promoted. Indian dressing is not promoted in India only but the demand of Indian dressing is far better outside India. The people those are residing outside India are fond of Indian dressing and clothing. But many Indian people mainly the teenagers consider the traditional dressing of India as old fashioned and avoid wearing it.

Indian music and clothing surely requires promotion within India and also in the off shore countries. The people of India should take steps to promote the Indian artists and the traditional music of India and also should select and promote the Indian models that can represent India outside India with traditional clothing of India. Both the Indian music and clothing are losing their originality due to the influence of western culture and mixing of the western culture in the culture and music of our country.
