nowadays dress-code for ladies in India is very close to the "western" one. Let me give you a number of small advices:
1. no difference what you will wear, you will draw attention of people. Please, be ready for this.
2. Trouwjurk 2012 my suggestion to avoid the cloths you feel uncomfortable and do not know the current trend design. Do not buy "salwar-suits" unless in prooved place and with local lady, who can be a guide. Foreigners wearing odd indian clothes is in the top "hihi-haha" indian list.
3. pair of jeans will do the best. You can choose from full-length or capris.
4. Long bouse(short will be actually ok as well, but you can feel easier in the long one). Color is of no difference, as it is not that much hot in India during february. Should cover the shoulders. Avoid seen-through materials.
5. Skirt. Can be either long of semi-long. Modern indian girls wear knee-long or little bit longer. No mini-skirts.
6. Choose a comfortable shoes. I would advice smth. with flat soles and without heels.
If after this you are not sure about your indian trip wardrobe, visit Pantaloons or ShoppersStop store in any big city and take your pick. They have bright collections of both indian traditional and western outfits that completely within "dress-code":)
you will be fine but you must have the respect when visiting places as you will be when you are enquiring long shorts and t shirts and if near beaches take swim gear and yes take pashmina for if you visit holy places as long as shoulders are covered you are OK and shoes or sandals are left outside cover head with pashmina for a mark of respect,you can get the tunic and trousers made to measure for little Lange Cocktailjurken money in a few mouwloos avondjurken hours very comfortable and nice to wear the better material the more you pay but they are worth it and look fab Evan when you get home have a lovely time and enjoy
