These are typical sites in India. You see women in beautiful dresses riding or driving motorcycles. We have seen as many as 6 people on a bike before. 
Some of the women wear pants under their dresses. The sari (wrapped dress) is the most popular with the pants and long dress being next most popular. Very seldom do you see a woman in pants and a shirt. Never do you see women in shorts (no matter how hot!!) but occassionally in capri's. They are a very modest people. The men wear long or short sleeved shirts. It's seldom that you see a T-shirt!!
Even the working women wear beautiful Sari's. These are the lower class women or they wouldn't be carrying something on their head! It amazes me how beautiful they dress even in a lower class. Sometimes you will see a little bit of their back as in this picture. These women carry construction items for the men who are building the apartment.
The lady in pink is typical of pants with the dress and always a beautiful scarf draped around their neck!!
