Hey Guppies
So I got a couple of suits from Khaadi for when Rishta ppl visit or you visit them and I’m not too sure how I want to get them sewn!
They are cotton Silk suits with GORGEOUS duppatta’s but I’m at a loss! I got some cloth for piping and Paati work (which is in fashion.)
So help me out with idea’s and pictures! i wanna have them be “modern” (u know what i mean lol) but with a modest neckline and I can do anything but sleeveless 
don’t wanna just go with the norm 
thanks in advance!
ah 110 view but no replies :(
its alright, i figured some things out by trolling the forum here and pulling out some old trends but then using the patti trend
judging from the number of views im assuming some people were also interested, so i'll try to post pictures once i get my clothes back from the tailor :)

Re: Need Idea's For Getting Suits Made
n another thing..i know this doesnt go for this thread but i couldnt find a thread which actually would help,so could someone help me out...
geeting married in july inshALLAH,date yet to be decided,
im working full time,n all sorts :( n i havent started a thing yet..
dnt really know wat to do?where to start from?
i mean what preps do u actually need to do before getting married,like clothes,shopping.arrangement,n looking gorgeous..dnt know what to do,how to do it n how to start...plus im the only girl in my family :(
Re: Need Idea’s For Getting Suits Made
princess21 - I think there are some threads about what to do in the run up to your wedding to start the preps. Have a search for them using the search tool. I can look for you later if you can’t find anything.
Wear what you feel comfortable with, that’s the most important thing. The normal lengha style is classic and many brides are still wearing it.
As for long shirts with the loose trousers (dhaka pajama), height doesn’t matter so much but imo they look better on slim people.
These might help for now:

Re: Need Idea's For Getting Suits Made
^yea, i know. i was in your position in 2008. i was out shopping every night after work and that wasn't even for a 'full' wedding!
to do lists and folders on your pc are your friend. and excel spreadsheets ;)
i think i heard something about someone putting one (spreadsheet) for people to download around here... don't know what was in it. can anyone shed any light on to its contents and whereabouts?
Re: Need Idea's For Getting Suits Made
wow..that wud be cool if i could get hold of that ;0
Re: Need Idea's For Getting Suits Made
Does anyone know where this spreadsheet is? I would love to have a look...? :)
Re: Need Idea's For Getting Suits Made
thanks mixedbeatuy and mani01 , i'll remember this for the next round of clothes :)
princess21 - i think choosing only some trends for your wardrobe would be best. rather than filling it all up with what in now.
Some of the clothes i got for myself i ended up choosing to do "paati" work in the inside of shirts so when I walked/ sit it'll catch ones eye. Its not so overt that it'll go out of fashion once the paati work dies down but it still follows the trend.
As for the long shirts, I'd suggest keeping ur shirt length 2 inches below ur knee. Its long enough to give you the look, but again will work after as well.
For the shirts that I did keep at a long lenght, I didn't get shirts with work on the bottom just on neck and sleeves and such so that they can be shorten'ed with a tailor after.
Hope that helps!
