AOA,
Any idea where can we find these shirts in Lahore ? Or the name of shops we can find these in Karachi ? FB groups are selling these at crazy prices for heavy fronts only ![]()

Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
These are soo soo pretty, ... Next best thing after bunto
I know but loot rai hai Karachi waliyaan seriously. Not worth 18-20k for a shirt with these fronts and just regular spray on back,sleeves and dupatta
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
Meena bazar seems to have this kinda stuff
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
those are not embroidered haina?
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
looks like mukesh work, which is normally on expensive side. I think u can buy this much mukesh work in around 15k..This sort of heavy mukesh dresses can be found in liberty in Lahore. :D
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
They do have some mukesh mixed with chikankari uploaded on their fb.

Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
Duppetta ghali mein eak shop hai woh bas kamdani fabric deal kerta hai...umer dar jewels k sath market mein ja ker 1st left turn jao or end pay shop hai..
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
Hi,
You will find a lot like that in dupatta gali, liberty market... You will find white shirts which can be dyed in any color later on ...
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
diya, I go to dupatta gali daily
but the ones there are not even close to these. These are really neat,light weighted wali mukesh pieces (I have received these in post from karachi for a customer so I can see the quality of embroidery and mukesh) .
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
Proto, since u have one piece with u, can u tell if this is the same mukesh kaam which is done mainly in Multan, Bahawalpur ? The ones from there are really heavy , weight wise.
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
no, this is really light weight-wise and no sitara used under muqesh like they use to make it bulky
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
Oh God the price that meena bazar quoted for just the kamdani peshwaz front will give you a heart attack AND cover the cost of an open heart bypass surgery!!!

Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
Kaamdani is a dying artform and it's hard to find a true artisan/karigar who can do it right! I suppose that's why it's so expensive?
My nana's sister, my dadi, Ammi's elder cousin...they all used to so the most exquisite kaamdani...making saris for the women and karra dupattas for all the little girls in the family having their bismillahs...sigh, we took for granted when they were here...and now I'd kill to have them make me a kaamdani shirt!!!
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
Proto Have you checked Anarkali? Anarkali has some of the very good works various times.
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
Lol nahi loot nahi rahi it's available at the Gizri market..there's only one shop which sells exactly the same stuff, very neat, ligh tweighted etc type..very expensive ...quoted me 16k to 18 depending upon how heavier the kaam is, and that too only shirt ... its on pure chiffon..I have seen/received few kamdani pieces from lahore it was not on pure chiffon but on pakistani and kaam me bhee difference tha...

Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
Proto, these are just beautiful :)
will you be posting up any stitched versions of mukaish walay suits?
I've been looking at these since last year but I couldn't justify paying the money being asked lol!
Re: Heavy kaamdani shirts in Lahore
lol sorry panache,I was not meaning to sound offensive
Thanks for the info. means dukaan waalay loot rahay hain ![]()
yes raania, I asked them at meena bazaar they said 14500rs/m for the fabric with light design
Not yet Afayiz. Anarkali is Allah miyan kay pichhwaaray for me
meri daur liberty defence tak hee hoti hai
but if I get to know of a specifisc shop which sells these for sure, I can go.
