Looks odd to me

Is this the Afghani shalwar that is really popular in Pak these days?

It looks so not sophisticated and classy. :eek:

^ yeh kaun hai..? :konfused:

Re: Looks odd to me

No. This looks like the lungi shalwar. But since
it doesn't show the front I am not sure but
it's certainly not pitiala.

Re: Looks odd to me

she cant work that dress

Re: Looks odd to me

If the kameez was longer or the salwar more narrow and taperd hten it’d look nice… but as it is.. :yukh:

Re: Looks odd to me

amen devi

Re: Looks odd to me

Is it Afghani shalwar ? :confused: I doubt it.
This is looking ugly because of the short Kameez.
I have afghani shalwar and it’s really very pretty.

Re: Looks odd to me

I have a patyaala shalwar and it doesnt look like this one, if patyaala is what you're talking about ofcourse.

Re: Looks odd to me

^ No Patiyala is totally different.I have so many patiyalas.
In Afghani shalwar...rinkle (don't know what to call) starts from top (pant of shalwar) and ends up at Paincha (like 1 on 1)

Re: Looks odd to me

i really like it.. hehe...

Re: Looks odd to me

Those of you who have pitialas, can you tell me what
is the length of your shirts?

Re: Looks odd to me

I dont think its a patiala. I don't know what an afghani one looks like.

Patialas look great if you have the right kameez design and if you're tall. But most desi girls are short or medium height. It definitely would make me look like a clown.

Re: Looks odd to me

^ PCG, if you wear a nice pair of heels, i reckon any medium girl could pull it off :)

im an inbetween height, but id love to give it a go... actually i think mums prob made some for me..

Re: Looks odd to me

Looks more like a punjabi shalwar or lungi :smiley: Those long slits look really :nook:

Re: Looks odd to me

The shalwar isn't as bad as the shirt. The slits on the kameez are horrible and expose too much of the shalwar, hence making it look unattractive.

p.s. I like her shoes though. Probably the best part of the outfit :-D

Re: Looks odd to me

kameez is horrible, shalwar is nice if in different color.
I have patiyala and its kameez is just an inch or 2 or maybe less (hehe) above my knees. but it looks nice.

Re: Looks odd to me

lolz that is not afghani style for sure… :rotfl: i have never seen any afghan wear somthin like that… lolz..

Re: Looks odd to me

its called a patiala shalwar , and that is it's proper name and yes it is in fashion both in india and pk.

Re: Looks odd to me

I'm liking it...that salwar suits her height :)

Re: Looks odd to me

yes, i think the dress is nice as well.
