sari for valima?

Re: sari for valima?

YES i wore sari on my valima and khara dupataa on my wedding day,,,

Re: sari for valima?

Hubby just brought a sari like this from India for me.

It has a dupatta/shawl made of exactly the same fabric with exactly the same embroidery on it.

So you have the pallu on one shoulder and the shawl on the other....looks very elegant.

Unfortunately Ibrahim no longer likes the colour of the sari.....he wants me to just sell it.

Re: sari for valima?

what is khara dupatta ive never heard of it before

im thinking of getting a simple sari, not that much work.
ill try to find out about the seperate dupatta that goes with the sari
the idea of the pallu goin on the head is pretty kewl too
ill check out T road, and try zamzama too who knows what i may find where :)
is there any style of sari that would be better
my mom saw this sari that was creme and red well the pallu are was red with lots of work on it sort of like u know how the end would be dyed a different color

Re: sari for valima?

yes, my khala wore a sarii in her valima..and you could get saris in designers' boutiques offcourse..other than that, there are tens of hundreds of shops which sell saris ..you should drop by malls such as The Forum, Dolmen Centre, Park Towers, Haideri etc.

Re: sari for valima?

I love saris.. I am gonna wear a sari on my valima whenever that happens :D and I will design my sari by myself :D

Re: sari for valima?

I wore a sari for my civil ceremony. It was ivory with hand bead work on it. My mum got it from Dehli in the mid 90s! Ha ha! Im glad she did cos the stuff i saw in the London stores i really wasnt loving so i was glad she got it yrs back. Id neva worn a sari b4 and i was literally pinned into it. I liked wearing it tho and have worn them to weddings since i got married. When i finally get around to posting my wedding pics u can see.
