The choli has short sleeves and a low neck and is usually cropped, and as such is particularly well-suited for wear in the sultry south asian summers. Cholis may be backless or of a halter neck style. These are usually more dressy with plenty of embellishments such as mirrors or embroidery, and may be worn on special occasions. Women in the armed force , when wearing a sari uniform, don a short-sleeved shirt tucked in at the waist. The sari developed as a garment of its own in both South and North indiaa at around the same time, and is in popular culture an epitome of Bangli culture.
