How’s your equation with devrani? If it’s a good one, then you could maybe get her input with shopping for MIL. Another option is to treat mil to shopping sometimes and that way she can get exactly what she wants…or…make a mental note of the things that she says she likes/wants. Or if possible you can ask her what patterns and cuts she’s more into these days or show her some examples/options and her response could give you an idea…unless she’ll say that she doesn’t need/want anything…and moms sometimes do that You could also try saying in a friendly way that “I noticed that you liked the style/design of suit devrani gave you and they looked really really nice on you last time you wore it so I bought you a similar style.” So…you won’t sound defensive but it kinda sorta gives a hint too. And it 's also possible that MIL does indeed wear the clothes you gifted her but maybe in your absence…so you missed it.

I did ask the devrani about the last outfit I got and she liked it too but saas never wore it. In fact even my nands who saw it were saying how pretty it is and what good taste I have etc to her when they saw it.

Over here the pakistani ckothes available in shops are low quality or very expensive so I can’t really take her and buy stuff with her.

One of the other outfits I got her I sat down with various images and we came up with something after hours and hours of discussion but when it came she didn’t seem happy with it. Wore it once for the occasion she got it for and never again. Whereas the stuff my devrani has brought has been worn multiple times!

i guess I can get something similar to the ones she already has and see what happens then. I feel like it’s a waste to get something so similar (I always like to get different things to what I already have!) but maybe I can see then what she does. I just have a feeling though it will never get worn. I don’t understand why
