Re: Revealing Bridals (Sleeveless, One shouldered, Mid-riff baring) - Any takers?
all im gna say is wteva u wear, the most important thing is that ur comfortable in it..dnt just choose sumthn coz sum1 has said so!
1 of my friends had alot of ppl teln her an off the shoulder top would luk nyc 4 the weddin day,and she even sumhow managed to convince herself!bt then on the day she got ready and she had to pin 1 side of her scarf so it wz around the front of her neck coz she felt like she wz revealing too much..and bcoz of that she felt concious throught the whole day and was really uncomfortable so she wasnt able 2 enjoy herself!
There is this one Dubai "high society" bride I have seen (meaning I saw her photos online). She moved to Canada and the wedding was in Toronto. She wore a very daring outfit ... well daring in the sense that it was more revealing ... but man, she pulled it off. She looked great in the shadi pics.

I thought your wedding dress looked great on you, but I agree - for some reason sleeveless tops are easier to pull off than cap sleeves. I'm planning on going sleeveless at my wedding & valima.
thanks ja! it wasn't the entire look i had a problem with, just the shirt. i'm getting a sleeveless one made for when i re-wear the outfit.
Totally agree.. I think it can be done tastefully, I also think it might look nice on bridesmaids, can’t remember which celeb’s wedding this was at below but I think the outfit looks nice:
Does anyone know who made this revealing design? I am desperate.. and before anyone issues a fatwa against me, no, I’m not planning on wearing a halter top to my wedding, I’m after the same colour scheme and look but with my back totally covered..
Re: Revealing Bridals (Sleeveless, One shouldered, Mid-riff baring) - Any takers?
See, regardless of your limits a lowcut neck baring cleavage is trashy everywhere.
However everyone has their own take on sleevless/backless because it depends on your family and whether it's acceptable. Like I have a cousin who lives in Karachi (we're from Lahore) and everyone from her in-laws wear midriff-baring/low-back saris but they still cover their head in front of elders. See what I mean? It's not wrong but since it's not a punjabi thing, it's different.
Same thing in KHI bazaars, I've seen a lot of aunties wearing saris while their midriff is showing. It's not considered wrong because it's a part of our culture.
Im just curious.....did short sleeves ever inspire such debate or have short sleeves always been acceptable in traditional Pakistani culture?
Even sleeveless wasn't an issue until the 80's. I blame Zia-ul-Haq =/
Even Fatima Jinnah used to wear sleevless w/ her saris. I think it's tanks/halters/tube tops that the real issues with. Sleevless is not a big deal IMO (even though in my family we don't wear it, I don't see anything wrong w/ it unless it's skinny straps).
So short sleeves is never an issue unless of course your family is super-strict.
i'd like to wear off the shoulder but i'd be worried about offending the movli lol. my family wouldn't have a problem with it
I wanna do that too! Not super off-the-shoulder but just where my collarbone ends and shoulders begin. A v-neck w/ full sleeves and slightly off the shoulder. Haye.
