Has anyone had any experience with this vendor? I came across this page on facebook and they make pretty good replicas. They have posted up close pictures of kaam and it looks neat and of good quality.
I am interested in ordering some suits from her for some upcoming weddings and was wondering if anyone here could let me know their experience? I would really appreciate it since this would be my first online shopping experience for pakistani clothes!
I've seen some of her designs they look amazing! Like seriously some of the best replica work I've seen! Did you end up ordering from her as I want to also order some suits off her and what are her prices like? I've emailed her for prices but still waiting for reply
Yes I did end up ordering from her! It’s been almost 3 weeks since I sent the money. This is the dress I chose:
I am getting it made in another colour without the circles of kaam in the middle of the dress (replaced with spray kaam). The price is a bit over CDN$200 which I think is decent.. I don’t think I would get that kind of price for this dress at the stores here.. plus I personally think it’s worth it since I can customize the colours and kaam. She has an album on fb with dresses priced between $150-200 so I think those would be good to choose from for an initial purchase just to see how it goes.
I think she is a bit busy these days with her eid orders and it being ramadan so if you haven’t heard back in a while, just email her again. Recently, she posted these amazing replicas on her fb page.. one is black and the other is champagne with colourful borders (sorry cant post since im at work). Her customers seem pretty happy so I don’t mind the wait
The only con so far is making the payment through moneygram since I was charged $10 I would have rather spent that money on the dress.
Thanks for the info it's actually helped me decide I'm going to order from her! Your dress is going to be stunning inshallah I like the design!
I'm going to order the red one she has up it's surprisingly quite cheap and the royal blue maxi type dress both will cost be about £300 which is okay
^ Awesome! I hope everything turns out well with your order
I received an email from her and she said my dress will be shipped on Thursday Can’t wait! I will try and post pictures of the outfit here
If everything goes well with this vendor, I will probably get all, if not most of my suits from her from now on. I recently contacted a woman who sells pakistani clothes here and asked her the price of this outfit:
She quoted $240 I checked the price on sobia nazir’s site and it’s approx $95 when converted to CAD.. so that made me feel a lot better about the price I got on the formal suit from divine designs.
Oh wow that's great news, inshallah it will be great and do post pics here is love to see her more recent work!
Yes I've ordered the outfit yesterday so just waiting to see how it will turn out!
Umm no that's wayyy too much for that outfit, some vendors will sell replicas for more than the original price which is so annoying but alhamdulillah divine designs seems to be quite reasonably priced compared to others!
I received my dress a few days ago and I love it! Even though I had lessened the kaam, it still looks very fancy. I really believe that I could not have gotten a better suit at this price here in the Toronto area. I’ve attached pictures below but it looks so much better in person. I am definitely going to place orders with her again
very nice design mA.
I'm afraid that "just over $200" is pricey to me.
Where I live in Canada an outfit of this style and amount of embroidery in a decent fabric would not cost this much.
Also....the outfit that you show in post #6, or a similar one, would easily be available in Toronto for under $100. I'm not sure who you're dealing with that would quote you $240 for it. That's outrageous.
^ I live in the GTA and I'm curious as to where you are able to find such deals? I don't think I have seen semi-formals or formals at this range at any of the shops I've been to. I saw more simple white chiffon suits at Oriental Costumes in the range of $300-$400. This suit was crinkle chiffon and cost $210. Like I said before, the suit looks a lot better in person. The kaam in the pictures is not really showing up properly. In my opinion, it was worth the price.
The price quote of the green suit was from Alia K Designer Studio.. it is a simple silk and chiffon suit and I'm not sure how she manages to get people to buy her clothes at these ridiculous prices. But I have dealt with other vendors selling silk shirts with an embroidered motif in the middle for $90.. that was just for the shirt and the ladies were not willing to bargain ~_~
