Pakistani Lawn is a type of textile that is made from cotton. It is a fine plain weave textile designed using fine, high thread count cotton. The fabric is woven on hand looms and it has a very soft texture.
The fabric was initially worn as an undergarment by both men and women in the subcontinent, but it eventually became popular as an outer garment for women in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
It was originally produced with natural indigo dye but now it is mostly dyed with synthetic dyes.
The most common color of Pakistani lawns are white and off-white which are made from unbleached yarns while the less common colors are red and blue which are made from bleached yarns.
