Is there any point going to Pakistan for shopping?

Re: Should i buy my outfit frOm pk or uk??

I dunno about 5 weeks if it's from scratch but for £1000 (less, even), you'll get something that you can't even compare UK stuff with.

If you have relatives there, you can have it sent over when it's finished.

Do a search, I'm sure other girls have discussed boutiques in Isb. I know Mohsin Sons is popular for those wishing to spend below 1lakh.

I have heard even ready made range in pak is realy good!!! I wont know till i go and have a look myself!!

Thats whT im confuzed about dont know whether i should get t from here or pK!!! I havent got anything in mind im one to see and try on and then decode ot somethomh is for me....

Re: Should i buy my outfit frOm pk or uk??

You will def find something you like in Pak ready made or otherwise. Obviously the choice is a lot wider so I'd not even waste my time in the UK unless you have seen something that you know is "the one".

^agreed

Re: Should i buy my outfit frOm pk or uk??

Thats the thing hun i have seen stuff i like but they are like 1500/1600 pounds which is just stupid in my opinion as il onli be wearing it once also i wuldnt even say they are wow! My sisters n mum think i should just get it from pak and pay them extra if needs be!!!!
I havnt really seen the bridals out thr and last tym i went pak was 10 yrs ago!!

Im beginning to think pak it is!!

Re: Should i buy my outfit frOm pk or uk??

Thanks so much guys for ur responses!!!

Im just really worried what if i go out therr and find i dont like anything..... But u have given me that confidence that inshallah i eill find somthing :)

I don't know the shopping in Islamabad, but ask around. I'm sure people can guide you.

go to pk! even if it's 5 weeks, before you leave you can get a good look at the progress of your dress and then have your rels send it back home to you later when it's done. I don't think finding a decent tailor in uk for final fitting should be a problem. :) Definitely go to pk!

Re: Should i buy my outfit frOm pk or uk??

We had a pretty long discussion on this a while back. I am sure you will benefit from that. :)

Re: Should i buy my outfit frOm pk or uk??

Did anyone make a recent trip to any city in Pakistan for wedding shopping? Was it worth it or do you regret your decision?

I think somegroovychick made a recent trip to Karachi and listed the info in her thread.

Mizz, we have an extensive thread on shopping in Pindi and Islamabad. Please spend some time browsing that and you’ll come up with great info that you need:
