Expensive outfits which are out of vogue!

I hate it when you spend a lot of money on an outfit for a wedding/event and wear it once before it goes out of fashion and looks a bit dated. I’m not a huge fashion victim and I tend to not spend too much on outfits, but I do have a few outfits which look a bit old, but which I’m reluctant to throw away in case they come back in fashion!

One example of this is an arab style outfit which I got made for my brother’s mehndi, which looks gorgeous but now it looks a bit dated. How would you suggest recycling these outfits? I’ve kept most of mine (which were expensive), and given some of them away, but am trying to decide how to re-use them into other designs etc.

Any ideas?

I have formals from 5 years ago, I'm not getting rid of them any time soon only cz they'll come back in style..e.ventually.

all my old long kameez's from ages ago came back into fashion, and as for the short shirts some i recycled and some nice ones just get a border on the end to make it longer/laces around the neck and sleeve. :D
