Nope. The top ends at around the waist...maybe a 'little' below that. A Kameez goes all the way down past the knees and is worn with pants, called a 'shalwar'. The outfit that I'll be wearing is called a 'lenga', and is usually worn by brides, though they also have more simple ones for any special occasion. I will 'try' to get a picture, but I'm not sure how I could hang such a dress to get a proper shot.
