arjun and dino look like they are wearing clothes made out of bedsheet or curtain material
the dresses pretty much look like they have empress waists, with a mix of double galas thrown in.

this style is sorta in pakistan. the umm long-overcoat style thingamajig. maybe it has a better name =/
i like the texture and cloth they are using though. very luxuriant. i hope kaliyon wali kameezain/dresses come back soon. i have a killer kameez i wanna wear 
SWEEETY! sweety!!!!!! JAAAAGO*nudges herrrrrrr and pulls her outta journals* OMG go look at teh PRINCE uffffffffff :faints: GOOOOOOOOOO

Those are just dresses with empire waists. Nowadays (they were popular in Europe in the 1800's), they're pretty much solely for women who are pregnant or very thin.
It looks a lot like a pathan type of shalwar kameez. I'm sure you could find something easily like it.

I recently saw Bipasha Basu on some show wearing this GORGEOUS dark pink and gold colored anarkali shirt with chooridars.. oh my god, I have never really liked churidars so much but her dress was stunninggg and so elegant. I'll post pics when I find some. Then again on the same show, Madhuri wore a similar style but in different colors. Seems like they have hit the Indian fashion scene big time.

the style in these days with the gown typa shirt is straight-legged pants. not exactly capris, not exactly tight/chooridar pajama
my cousin wore it, except i don't have a pic of her standing in it. just sitting pics
