Stoppit, u're a star, thank you so much for taking the time to post these up! loving them all but i'm veering towards the last one and the one above it.
thanks again
hehe, i thought so. they are most semi formal.
most lighter shades of grey will look gorgeous with silver embroidery, such as the lilac-grey for the first outfit (sari).
best thing to do is go on a swatch hunt and find some fabric the colour you want and send that to whoever is making the outfit so they can dye in the same colour. Last thing they need to make sure is that the karigaar's use a shiny, whiteish silver for the kaam materials so that the work stands out.
