No
WP:SIGCOV. Lots of mentions from reliable sources, but they never go in depth about the topic. Unreferenced since March 2014.

Keep - The V&A are currently holding a major exhibition on Indian textiles including sections dedicated to modern clothing fusing Indian and Western fashion. I found this
discussion of Indian-Western fashion connections in an academic book including references to the East-West synthesis. Here's
another book on the subject of contemporary Indian fashion with lots of content on Western influences/cross referencing. Also,
more discussion on the subject here.
Yet more discussion in another academic book. The problem is that if you search for one very specific phrase, namely "Indo-Western clothing" you're not going to find an awful lot, as there are a lot of alternative terms for the concept, but in itself, it is very well-established and quite well-covered and clearly encyclopaedic enough to merit an article of its own. I actually think this article would be a perfect candidate for a
student assignment.

Keep if improved with material from reliable sources that establishes the notability of the topic.

Keep The article also has potential. I'll pop by now and then to do a bit here and there. I've added a couple of refs. Others should add a bit in too. Good notable article potential and worth saving, but it needs work !!!!!Karl Twist (
