Re: Is it worth it?
I dont think it's worth it.. I think you can get so much better kaam wise and price wise.. You can get a more stunning bridal outfit for a better price..! Good luck..:)
It is a beautiful traditional lehnga in my opinion and better than most of the majority lehngas posten in “bridal pics” and its a dress by a designer. But not the best out of the best in my opinion.
But honestly how is the possible that its price is 6 lakhs rupees. I think she said that because you live abroad. I have seen Nilofer shahids other lehngas with same amount of work, so I just wonder that if you say that my budget its for example 3 lakhs is she then gonna just give you the fabric? I mean a lehnga without kaam. Because the lehnga doesnt have so much kaam at all and the price tag is 6 lakhs. overall in the end of the day if you can afford buy it! Dont think so much wheter other people like it or not the main thing is you like it and you want to wear it on your big day! wheter its this lehnga or another one!

Nilofer Shahid Collection
Since a few of these are bridals, I thought I would post them in the wedding froum.
These pics were taken from her Nur Jehan / Josephine collection. Although some of you may have seen these pics before, these ones offer more detail if you click on the pic twice:
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
very nice and different.
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
Luv the colours.. so femine
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
interesting fusion of East and West!
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
nice colexn.......
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
i cant pick out which one i like the most! they are all unique and gorgeous! i love the way she has used fabric...
fabric itself can make a wonderful statement...usually the prettiest of ones i have seen dont have much kaam on it...the fabric/cut/fall makes or breaks the outfit...
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
Interesting but disappointing at the same time 
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
^ so true, i went to nilofer recently, shes very sweet n all... but to be honest the clothes don't live up to the hype of her name.... and certainly not the PRICES!
like the first image was around 1-25... the bridal, the one with the close up .. pearls n all was 6-25 ... now even if u bargain how much will she come down 6? ... Also it's not about 'people with money pay.. if you can afford then its ok' ... i can afford but NOT justify paying so much for something that doesnt look so much! unless you get a big nilofer shahid meeras tag stitched to ur bust!
take for example umar sayeed, sure he charges 7 lakhs but his jodas (not that i love his style !) scream work! embellishment! karigari! and all.. they look overdone and therefore NOT overpriced..
RANT OVER. :)
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
agreeeeed..the price bit is a turnoff..but i love the way she uses fabric..
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
^ well ill let u in a little secret... there is a fabric - jamavar tissue type... the SAME design/fabric has been used by memoona manan (rouge) i bought the same from lahore, and nilofer claimed shoe bought it from Paris. I mean honey ur BIG! HUGE! why lie?
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
haha..omg
where in lhr did you buy the fabric? details please :)
oh and we should tell her that paris is not the only place to buy it..haha..dallas, LA..and NY has tons of couture fabric shops..sure they are super expensive but not $3000...hmmmm
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
I sad about the gorai models; they just can't pull the clothes off right.
I say we have her do the same show with pakis
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
@chanda u know these two shops in lahore, when u get off the cavalry bridge.. shahid and fajr.. one of the two and they sold it SAYING nilofer bought this... big LOL at her! she was so insistant that everyone is doing crap and my clothes are expensive cause i sell a story!
and bragging about going to paris n all... i guess RANT NOT OVER yet lol
Re: Nilofer Shaid Collection
hey thanks sabeen..i ll check them out too..why do these designers put others down just for the sake of business?..not classy!
I actually dont like any of the outfits posted above! but I liked the lehnga which resham wore that was nice but not this whole collection!
