I think you need 5mtr for the dress alone and 2.5mtr to 3mtr for trousers.

Any idea about how much of the fabric is needed for the 3rd picture i.e. Katrina’s black dress H&NK,The first one worn by Lara appears to be Malai jorjet shirt, chiffon sleeves & duppata. The total fabric for shirt would be around 4.5 yards.The 2nd picture probably has kataan silk shirt. For this one, even 4 yards would be enough.
