Collared Jubba and Mundu

Kerala’s cosmopolitan outlook has been well reflected in the wide variety of dresses that are popular in the state. Like many other dresses now popular in Kerala, this dress, too, had come down to the state from northern India.

Collared Jubba is a plain long full-sleeved dress. It is not a dress of daily use. On special occasions and events men like to wear collared Jubba with Mundu or Jubba with Jeans.

The new experiments with Jubba are embroidery, sequins work and bright colours. The material can be cotton, silk, khadi, etc.

In Kerala, two varieties of jubba- one with a collar and one without it are popular. In the video, a man is seen wearing a collared Jubba along with a white dhoti called Mundu.
