Answer
The Shalwar Kameez is not a Sunnah dress. It does have some features of a Sunnah dress, for example, it is loose and long. That covers the body and also conceals the shape of the body. Rasulullah [sallallaahu alayhi wasallam] advised us not to imitate others. It is for this reason, the western clothing, suit and tie is undesirable.
