Re: 2011 Brides

Ughhhhhhhhhh I need to vent. My fiance picked the *ugliest *sherwani!!! It’s so gross- it doesn’t even LOOK like a sherwani. It looks like a blazer that got recalled. This is his way of getting out of wearing desi clothes. And dude, his job wasn’t that hard- I’m not a big advocate of desi clothes for guys. I prefer the plain kurtas & sherwanis, and he does, too. I thought we were on the same page. He liked some of the ones I showed him a while back. But now, when it’s time to place an order, WHAT does he pick? OMG sooo ugly like barf city. It’s got patches of velvet and random designs over. It’s so CHEAP. I was so surprised- we usually have the same taste in everything. And now he’s mad at me for not liking the ugliest sherwani, which he called “the most awesome sherwani I’ve ever seen.” I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Ughhhh

That is awful! I am so sorry. My fiance wants to wear what you are describing to the Valima instead of a suit.. he thinks that will make it more of a match with my outfit since they will both be desi style! I lectured him and set it straight! For his shervani he is choosing something that is not my first choice, but it’s not bad either, so I’m ok with it. After all it’s his wedding too.

Is this the cut you are describing? http://www.joy2day.com/fashion-and-showbiz/men-corner/dress-designs/groom-dress/images/Light%20Beige%20coloured%20jodhpuri%20suit.%20Embroidery%20on%20jacket%20for%20groom.jpg

Maybe you can convince him to go with a more traditional longer length shervani, and something very simple with just some kaam on the neck and sleeves. Enlist the help of other girls to convince him that his choice will make him look like the western equivalent of refugees that try to dress like Americans with tight black jeans and broad shouldered tight waisted biker jackets!!
