Hey sara why don’t you get yourself a plain shalwar kameez made and use your kaam wala dupatta with it to dress it up. I think it’s not long enough for a sari and might look odd if you use it with a skir to give it a sari look. I have a another similar silly suggestion for your kaam wale sleeves. I think you should get yourself a plain white kameez and have your darzi use your kaam wale sleeves as sleeves for your white kameez (maybe you can have him cut your sleeves shorter than the original and also have him make them fitted)? With white kameez buy a red color(the color in the sleeves) shalwar and a multicolor dupatta to go with it. I don’t have 25 posts but otherwise i would post a picture to give you an idea of what I am talking about. I don’t know if i make sense but that’s something i would have done with my old clothes.

So you mean just get a new outfit made usnig those extra pieces from the sleeves?

@noor1234

hey sara… maybe u could get a plain suit in a contrast colour?.. maybe a ferozi kameez and shocking pink (like the dupatta) shalwar?

Um…i kinda think it should stay one color..just to let the duputta stand out more?

@Gemini_the_Great

go for this option.. so for the duppata and suit looking alike, get plain white raw silk (unlike the raw silk for men, the one for ladies is a different fabric) and you can get it dye from famous dyers in Pakistan for exact same color. (I have done that for couple of my suits to go with kaam wale dupaatay of my lehnags so I can give you more information for the dyer as well). Also, you can go for bindi-wala kapra (like your rust, green, and magenta duppata that you are wearing in the next picture).. it’s also available in white color so you can get this kapra dye.. it would look awesome with this duppata and you won’t need any kaam on kameez either since those big round bindis come in different colors of your choice (maroon, copper and golden, I guess). Last but not least, I would suggest going for simple shalwar qameez for such heavy duppata so it stands out more!!

ps: All these fabrics are available in Rabi Center Rawalpindi and Rabi Center on Tariq Road in Karachi!!

Now you lost me with “bindiwala kapra”

@adrasteia

That my dear is not a Paishwaz but its drop dead gorgeous with the sleeves.
The long sleeves look very nice fitted.

But if you want, you can cut the sleeves off, buy matching fabric get a darzi to make you capped sleees and get him to stich the kaam end of the long sleeves on the capped one.

I’ll call it a pishwaz
