dupatta setting/pinup for angarakha

What kind of a dupatta setting would look good with a peshwaz or the frock type dress with a chooridar? This is for the bride btw. I am so out of ideas! Any suggestions?

Re: dupatta settings

Hm those duputtas are usually net or tissue haina? Those are very cumbersome/tricky :( I've never seen them on brides, just as after-shadi wear, where its' folded and pinned over hte shoulder.. Oh well, good luck :D

Re: dupatta settings

Sara, i lucked out with this one :D My nikah dress had a tissue dupatta and it looks aweful in the pics, poofing up whenever it felt like ruining my look. But this one is kataan from what i can tell in the pics so should be easier to handle.

Re: dupatta settings

Oh than thats easy! Though I've never seen a pishwaz/frock of kathaan silk... I can find tons of pix of duputta settings :D

Re: dupatta settings

If it's the bride, then cover her head, and then pin the dupatta so that she looks like she's carrying it over her arms (pin at wrist).

If she doesn't plan to wear the dupatta on her head, she should let it hang down one shoulder and then pin the other arm as described above.

Re: dupatta settings

Sahar i was thinking of something similiar to what you suggested. But if you guys have more ideas, that would be great. Sara, please share pics if possible. That would make my job easier naa.

i cant be a model, lol, i have to be the dhulan...! my mother would kill me, i was thinking of pinning the dupatta on my left on my arms, and my right side behind my shoulders, because of the kaam on the clothes... but i also wanted something graceful and elegant at the same time
