I havent been in Pakistan for 4 years and have no idea about the prices for shaadi lenghas/ghararas there.
I contacted a few designers,and i think the prices they quote are too high,
like Memoona Mannan,range from 350.000-500.000 for that famous pink one.
Karma same price range and the list goes on.
As i will not have enough time to design my clothes myself when im Pakistan ,there are only two options left,to go with a designer and pay a huge amount of money for a dress i will wear maybe 2 or 3 times or get a ready made dress.
Does anyone know what are the average range for these ready made lenghas?
I dont feel comfartable paying a designer 300.000 or even more for a wedding dress:(…
Re: Wedding clothes
u can get something designer within 100-200,000
readymade lenghas from 40-100000
thanks for the info sara!
My experience with designer 'Aisha Khadeeja"
The outfits I did recieve were mashallah se very nicely made, the detail of the work was amazing they listened to my specifications, and they used pure materials and I couldn't be happier!
I have placed an order for 4 outfits.
I have recieved 2 of them, due to the fact my mother in law was in Lahore to pick them up.
Original order was placed in January 2009 with 50% payment-- full payment was made in March 2009.
It is now the end of May and there is no sign of two of my missing outfits.
My event is in a TWO days, and in that order is my mendhi jhora--Which will need alterations and a Saree my mother was planning on wearing to my wedding!!!!
I recieved an email on 5/11 saying my outfit will be shipped within a day. I was not given a DHL tracking number. Clothes were NEVER RECIEVED!
Since then, I've reached out to both Aisha and Khadeeja on Facebook and Gmail and I finally heard back from one of them today 5/27, 16 DAYS AFTER MY SUPPOSIDE SHIPMENT HAS BEEN MAILED- I HAVENT RECIEVED ANYTHING!! My mendhi is on 5/29!!! 2 days away!!!!!
In the email response from Aisha Qureshi, she says that she has already shipped the clothes and I will recieve them in 3 to 5 days. She again did not provide me with a tracking number and what is the point of sending the clothes now when I can't even wear it to my own wedding event.
If placing international orders I would suggest NOT TO unless you are able to have someone in Lahore hassle them on a daily basis.
I have given these designers amble amount of time to complete 4 outfits of mine! January i placed the order we are now approaching June!!! 6 months to complete 4 outfits????? I don't understand.
They are very unprofessional and I will never order from them again. I am beyond upset at the fact that my mother and I have to stress out about what we are goign to wear to my wedding this weekend when I already have plenty to worry about with the wedding preparations!
Also, I wrote them a review on facebook (what is a group page for?) which they ended deleting! This is ridiculous and unprofessional I don't know how they plan to make it in this industry!
