Hijabi Brides

my friend wears hijab and was looking for some pictures/ideas of bridal clothes that she can wear while still being covered.

I saw a few pics on GS somewhere of islamic bridal fashions…i cant find them now. can someone plz tell me the link.

jazakallah khair :slight_smile:

Re: hijabi bridal fashion

What do you mean by still being covered? If she is too much on hijab, she can just take out a long ghongat or wear a net dupata on her wedding dress dupata....

Re: hijabi bridal fashion

just tell ur friend that buy a matching hijab with her shirt of lehnga it look realy nice .

Re: hijabi bridal fashion

Search in this very forum : "HSY hijab". I had a delicious post ages ago on gorgeous hijab fashions.

Re: hijabi bridal fashion

a friend of mine got a thicker material cloth sewed to the dupatta so you couldn't see her hair from the back. But if your friend takes full hijaab then she would have to cover her her neck area too and not wear any jewelry or wear jewelry on top of her scarf. hmm....depends on how far she is willing to go to look like a traditional dulhan. Otherwise it might be best for her to do it the Egyptian way and wear a gown with a headscarf.

You can always separate the ladies and the gents and let only the dulha see the dulhan and keep all the guys out. That way your friend can wear pretty clothes, do the whole ghoonghat and jewelry bit too.

Re: hijabi bridal fashion

she wants to be fully covered including the neck. do u guys think it would look odd with jewelry? she really wants to wear the traditional lothes and jewelry w/o looking too odd. any other suggestions?

Re: hijabi bridal fashion

Indian/Pakistani clothes were never really designed for this strictly Arabized notion of hejab where every hair must remain covered at all times. Dupattas are designed to be loosely draped...not severly pinned. Its going to be pretty hard for her to look like a normal Pakistani dulhan while keeping all of her hair and neck covered. Her best bet would honestly be to have a gender segregated wedding and dress like a regular Pakistani bride. The few times I've seen people try to pull off the hejab over a wedding garara/sharara/lehenga, its just looked cumbersome and ridiculous (it looks almost as bad as when Hyderabadi women try to wear hejabs and full sleeve tunics with their saris).

Re: hijabi bridal fashion

hey guys is there any website of this kind of dresses for bridal??so plzz tell me

Re: hijabi bridal fashion

is anybody still looking for pictures/ideas? Give me a day or two and i'll see if I can get some pictures for you.

ps. It is possible to pull it off, with or without jewellery and look great.

Re: hijabi bridal fashion

My phupoos bahu does pardah so we made a hijaab for her that matched her outfit. The part near her forhead had the same embroidery as her dress and she wore the tikka under that. We gave her earrings with out saharay (sp?) so she could cover half her ears with the hijaab and not a strand of hair showed. Her kamiz was a high neck style (chinese collar) and she wore the necklace on top of it which looked really nice... Dupatta was draped on her head about 1/4 th behind the front and pinned on shoulders and draped back. Cant share pics cause she did not let any one take any! But she looked very pretty.

Re: hijabi bridal fashion

I wore a hijab at my nikkah, wedding reception and walima. The only jewellery that was seen was my tikkah…I used the following pics for ideas:

I think something like this, where the hijab is quite fitted around the head and neck can look nice. Looser hijab with a dupata on top looks far too bulky](“http://static.flickr.com/32/64315276_ccfd8b89ca.jpg")](“http://static.flickr.com/30/64315275_e0f890103b.jpg”)]("http://static.flickr.com/25/64315274_e8a447aa95.jpg”)

Re: hijabi bridal fashion

i agree…this looks neat and elegant. i dont like loose hijabs at all let alone with a dupatta on top.
