HELP ASAP!!!!! I don't know what to wear!!! :(

Hello ladies,

I’ve been reading this forum for quite some time and thought I could come to you for some much needed assistance.

My brother is getting married this summer and I need dress suggestions ASAP for the shaadi and valima. I’m his only sibling and I’m getting my clothes made in karachi/lahore and need some ideas to send to relatives overseas who are getting the clothes made.

What are the latest trends? I’ve been looking at different pictures but I really need some guidance as I am a fashion novice.

HELPPPPPPP!!! :smiley:

P.S. posting pictures will really help :slight_smile:

D652 is something I have been saving up for a while.
D1296 is also very nice (the tie and Dye one)

Re: HELP ASAP!!!!! I don't know what to wear!!! :(

I'd say sari for the walima as well.

Re: HELP ASAP!!!!! I don't know what to wear!!! :(

Barat: Long shirt with straight pants
Walima: A nice embroidered sari ( you'll be able to see plenty of them in the shops)

Re: HELP ASAP!!! I don’t know what to wear!!! :frowning:

jewelbox, have you made up your mind about the outfits you are going to wear?

Re: HELP ASAP!!!!! I don't know what to wear!!! :(

^ Hey mahi, I copied the top pic to a new thread in cafe, cos I think thats what Gina looks like! Really like that outfit tho.

Re: HELP ASAP!!!!! I don't know what to wear!!! :(

luv dem :)

Re: HELP ASAP!!! I don’t know what to wear!!! :frowning:

THANK YOU ALL for the suggestions!!! Mahi, I LOVE the third picture in the series here.. what gorgeous colors! All of them are beautiful but that one definitely caught my eye. I can’t thank everyone enough for posting pics/giving suggestions…THANK YOU!!! :smiley:

So here’s what I’m thinking so far…

My brother’s mehndi (we are having 2 separate mehndis):

My sister-in-law’s mehndi:

or

Baraat (possibly…? i’d like a straight pant/long shirt with tons of kaam..other suggestions?):

Valima:

What do you ladies think???

I’m getting the clothes made in Karachi/Lahore so if anyone can point me to the boutiques that would have these that would be WONDERFULLL :smiley:

Re: HELP ASAP!!!!! I don't know what to wear!!! :(

Are you married? If not then i'm sorry but the Valima outfit looks too auntish :o

Re: HELP ASAP!!! I don’t know what to wear!!! :frowning:

I’ve been happily married for 4 years, but I’m young (in my late 20s)…you really think it’s too auntyish? I LOVE the red/ferozi combo :halo:

Re: HELP ASAP!!!!! I don't know what to wear!!! :(

No I didn't mean it in a bad way :o I just thought it wasn't right for an unmarried girl. It would suit someone who is married :) The combo and the outfit no doubt is really pretty.

Re: HELP ASAP!!! I don’t know what to wear!!! :frowning:

I love this pic. Guddu & Shani have given the outfit an ethereal edge. Here is how the outfit looks on the ramp:

I would love to wear something like this on the baraat day if it won’t clash with the bride’s outfit.

The is an Amir Adnan outfit and I simply love the clours and style. I think it would be more suitable for the Valima.

More outfit ideas:

Re: HELP ASAP!!! I don’t know what to wear!!! :frowning:

both great options! but i’m slightly biased haha i wore the top one for my mehendi and shay wore the bottom one for hers!

Re: HELP ASAP!!! I don’t know what to wear!!! :frowning:

Of course mama ki dua, I totally agree :slight_smile:

Thanks Mahi! :slight_smile: The bride is wearing red on shaadi day (ruby color) so if I wear the red/ferozi combo that day it will clash with what she is wearing. I know for a fact that the bride’s family likes to get REALLY dressed up for shaadis, so I want to wear something that has a lot of kaam on it but doesn’t look cheap or tacky, you know? I think the pant/shirt is nice but it doesn’t have enough kaam for the level I’m looking for… any other suggestions? Ugh…it’s so hard to decide!!! My brain is about to explode :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks again, and sorry, please bare with me :frowning:

somegroovychick, that’s great to hear - do you have actual photos of you/your friend wearing those outfits? They look great in the pictures but I know they probably look different in real life. Also how did you purchase them? I’m getting my clothes made in karachi/lahore, so any suggestions would be great :slight_smile:

Re: HELP ASAP!!!!! I don't know what to wear!!! :(

i agree with you.........it looks too auntish.......

Re: HELP ASAP!!! I don’t know what to wear!!! :frowning:

if you are married than its ok…i thought you are single thats y i said that…
