How to wear a Khara Dupatta

  • Tuck the very top part of the middle of the dupatta into the back of the chooridaar.
  • Make accordion pleats with both ends of the dupatta.
  • Adjust both sides of the dupatta on the left shoulder.
  • Keep them in place with a brooch. *]Bring the free ends of the dupatta under the right shoulder and over the inside of the right elbow.

Re: Hyderabadi Khara Dupatta

Thanks bunches, laadbazaar. :wub: I adore the outfit. Please post more if you can. Thanks, Thanks. :bb:

:slight_smile: happy to share! the last time i wore one, i was 13 :stuck_out_tongue:
i think it’s a pain to wear though.. and once you wear it, you can totally forget about any restroom breaks.. the whole thing has to be taken apart :smack:

however, i found some more shareable pictures:
people i know, people i don’t.

the first two are vintage, pics about 30 years old.

if u live in karachi know this place on tariq road the guy used to be a kargai for bunto but he left her and opened his own shop n he made kharra duputtas for my cousins n they were amazing!!! ill post pics

Re: Hyderabadi Khara Dupatta

Do you have the address of the place, poddy?

I like the colors! These are pretty too, but I saw a real Bunto khara dupatta once and there is no comparison…the bride wore it for her mehndi and she looked simply stunning. Before that, I didnt even realize Bunto made khara dupattas! I think her shaadi pics have been posted here before, but I dont want to post her mehndi pic without permission.

Pics removed on request

Is this it by any chance?

Re: Hyderabadi Khara Dupatta

^ beautiful! burnt orange and green is such a classic but now under-used color combination for mehendi's.

Re: BRIDAL PICS.

she’s got such a tiny face the rest of her outfit distracts you from her beauty.

Is it just me or does she kinda sorta look Madubhala’ish?
