ok so I wore my mother’s gharaara on my rukhsati and I wanted to show everyone the before and after
here’s the before (march 24, 1976):
poof
and here’s the after, when I wore it 33 years after (december 6, 2009) with extra kaam and a totally new shirt and dupatta:
poof
why am I showing this? because I want all the girls out there who think that their mom’s clothes are too outdated to realize that you can revamp renovate whatever her wedding dress, make it timeless and beautiful and up to date and make it your own
the gharara is lush
cant believe its 33 years old.
yup it's 33 years old for sure hehe
yeah my mother is still really beautiful... though everyone says m attractive but i dont have half the looks she had and has....and she is exceptionally fair to top it off sigh my mom's a beauty ppl used to call her badam ki giri and pari chehra when she was in her jawaani hehe
wow that looks gorgeous! makes me want to re think my gharara.
beautiful!!! and congrats I myself have always loved my mom's and want to wear it with a simple shirt and dupatta if i ever get nikkah but that doesn't look like it's happening anytime soon lol but that's the plan.

You and your mother both look beautiful. You did a great job with the gharara...you've really created a family heirloom that hopefully your daughters and granddaughters will enjoy one day.
On side note, you're the first Pakistani/Muslim bride I've ever seen wearing Kaleeray (or at least that's what I think they're called...I'm referring to the big dangling bangles). Are they traditional in your family?
