Anarkali

Has anyone ever seen a bride in an anarkali dress? what do you think? do they look ‘bride’ enough.

just wanted to get some opinions.

Re: Anarkali

Hey i was thinkin of wearing that for my walima bt not sure i will look 'bride' enough

Re: Anarkali

i think it's very pretty, and can definately be very bridal depending on the amount of kaam

i personally wouldnt wear one on wedding but walima i would

i have attached a bride that wore a anarkali at her wedding and it luks gd

Re: Anarkali

One of my aunties wore an Anarkali and she looked beautiful … and definitely bridal. With the dupatta on her head, all the heavy work on the outfit, jewelery, and makeup … a bride looks like a bride. :slight_smile:

Here are some pics of anarkalis I came across that could pass off as definitely bridal:

Re: Anarkali

We had an extensive discussion on this and have a pretty big thread with loads of pics:

My couzin got married in 2002, and his wife wore a anarkali on the baraat.
It was looking nice , as there was a lot of kaam on it.
But , i personnaly prefer lenghas.

Re: Anarkali

I also prefer lehgas! I think Anarkalis are really nice for an egagement or even Nikah outfit. But I think for a wedding and valima it does not look bridal enough. I was being told to go for an Anarkali dress as well because they are very in Pakistan and people are wearing them for their weddings but I personally liked a lehga and gharara better.

Re: Anarkali

Sure why not? There is a high possibility that i wl go for it but with a twist to it. Something that i wore recently for my bro's barat but ofcourse alot more extravagent :D

Many people pull off wearing an anarkali dress on their wedding and if it is decked out enough I don’t see why anyone wouldn’t look ‘bride’ enough

That is one hot dress!!!

Anarkali do look bridal enough for a walima..granted you have lots of heavy kaam!

Re: Anarkali

yes it can look bridal...it just depends on the amount of kaam and fabric of the outfit
