Re: menahel and mehreen

Thank you!

hm its nice!
do you have a full pic of the one in mehroonish/purplish and blue

Re: menahel and mehreen

this is all i have, i know id love to see it fully too..btw i think they are related to bunto, any idea?

Re: menahel and mehreen

hmm...
not sure

Re: menahel and mehreen

but i think dr. haroon is related to bunto

And i find it fishy that M&M dont like their work posted online!
there could be two reasons:
1) there work is really unique, they dont want it copied
2) they copy other designers!

I could be wrong but i dont know why i think its reason number 2!

Re: menahel and mehreen

Well it said on their group page that they dont do photoshoots at all, even this one is something done by their younger sister and her friends in which they just lent out the clothes. They say they dont put their clients pics because their clients have a right to their privacy etc. I would love to go visit and see their stuff though, its not the usual run of the mill kind from the looks of it. Oh and i was asking if they were related since they are very active on Bunto's fb page.

Re: Bridal by Menahel and Mehreen

Do you have an idea of the price?

Re: Bridal by Menahel and Mehreen

Ive put pics of the full hand etc on flikr cause i dont have access to post attachments, the model was junior to me at school :slight_smile: Here goes:

Re: Bridal by Menahel and Mehreen

i mailed them today about their prices.. lets see if i get a reply..:) will let you all know

Re: Bridal by Menahel and Mehreen

Has anyone else on here had any experience with them? And what are their price ranges like??

Re: Bridal by Menahel and Mehreen

I received this reply from them a few months ago and they seem very courteous compared to other paki designers-

"Currently:

Readymade formals and semi formals starting at Rs.10,000 are sold at annual exhibitions. There is usually one annual exhibit a year.

Orders for formals require a minimum budget of about Rs.45,000 approximately.

Details regarding orders including styles, prices and delivery dates vary depending on the outfits and customer preferences, therefore customers or a trusted representative of their's are required to meet the design partners to sort out all details in full. Orders are therefore only taken by appointment and in person, and it is not possible to place orders online."

Re: Bridal by Menahel and Mehreen

Sounds good! Thanks so much sumorani :D!

Re: Bridals by Menahel and Mehreen

thats nice-but does that mean 45k for one outfit if you order? only the pret is 10k?

Re: Bridals by Menahel and Mehreen

I just came back from their Eid collection exhibition, and it was disappointing to say the least. The kameez's were around Rs. 18,000-28,000 each and not that nice to be honest, and the ajaar's were sold separately for Rs. 8,000. I have an appointment with them for formals, I hope it will be better! They just might be designers that do great in couture but aren't very good at pret, like Faiza Samee. I'll keep you guys posted!

Re: Bridals by Menahel and Mehreen

thats v pricey! i thought they were new and upcoming-hence relatively cheaper

Re: Bridals by Menahel and Mehreen

dude I found some awesome pcs @ this exhibition they gave their clothes to,I dunno what time the other gal who said everything was over 18 went and what she saw but I've been 2 the last 2 or three exhibitisons, n their cheaper stuff goes in like the first hour and not a single piece that'snot nice. THEYRE AMAZING,this time I went at starting time,the cottons and all were all under 10,000 even though they were selling the stuff through another shop this time (these other shops charge commission so i thought itwould be more expensive.,especially Ensemble since it onlykeeps the best designers.) there were some super fun cuts n unusual decorations. only the silky type formal type stufff was above 15. i got 2 cotton shirts both around 8-8500 each. and out of formals this really cool one for my sister's nikah for around 20 and another for the dholki in 18.5 thouand but they were both silky materials and formal finish,AMAZING finish,i can totally wear them to wedding functions with more jewellery. alll the outfits I picked up got sold out while I was there though.I'm all set with all my outfits now So excited!!i've been seeing their clothes for 5 years or sumthing and whenever i see their clothes on anyone they always stand out, I've seen a lot of modern work and unusual cuts and these stunning decorational things NOOONE does yet! it is a pity they dont put up pictures! my friend got her bridal and some formals from them and they are all delicious. and i tell you,only similarity to Banto is that the quality is awesome and they use a lot of hand work on shadi cloths not this machine u see everwyehrre, i'll ask my friend if can share pics here.
Plz do share other designers information too,I'm researching for new designers, i'm a clothes fanatic!
