Re: What can be done with this frock?

Plain matching fabric along with sleeves can be added easily in this dress.

Re: What can be done with this frock?

The only thing I can think of is adding green mesh. I’m not sure if the Pk darzis can do this without ruining your dress. You will want to find a really good darzi who has experience with western clothing. Then again, the mesh look may not go with the cut of the dress, so… I would say just wear it with a bolero.

Re: What can be done with this frock?

@Panache:i was thinking of the same idea.a plain fabric and a bit of the "gala" and then stich sleeves on it.
it is a silk fabric and silk is easily available in pak.
i will def. look for a good darzi.

Re: What can be done with this frock?

as far as bolero is concerned, i dont think its a good idea, because i a bolero in the same color is not available.and this wont look good either

Re: What can be done with this frock?

i'll def go for a bolero or long , flowy, cardigan probably in rust or beige. i won't take the risk of ruining the dress.

Re: What can be done with this frock?

xactly. Good darzis can easily do that, infact one of my client came with the same problem and I did the same thing. What you can do is buy pure chiffon/silk and dye in ur required shade cuz getting the same shade is almost impossible. All the best!:biggthumb:

Re: What can be done with this frock?

ok thanks.i think i will send it to pak and tell them to look for a good darzi and good stuff/material.if its not possible i will go for a cardigan i suppose.
by the way how did you guys like the frock?will it look good in summer?
what about a white chooridar/choori pyjama?or any other suggestions?

Re: What can be done with this frock?

Sleeves are not going to look good on this dress.

Re: What can be done with this frock?

I were u I would go for a plain green or black cardigan, it will not only look good but also save u hastle of sending it to pakistan.

Re: What can be done with this frock?

I agree with above, don't add the sleeves and gala or whatever. I would wear this with a back cardigan and tights for a formal look, off-white, beige cardiagan for a summery look. If you wear a hijab that should cover the gala, otherwise you could button the cardigan from the top.

Re: What can be done with this frock?

Amen to the couple of girls above! Just put a longer a bit baggy cardi over it and wear it with black tigths...NOT LEGGINGS..would look off with the dress in my opinion. Or for a more edgier look throw a cropped jean jacket over it or brownish leather jacket! In the summper I think it would look lovely with a jean jacket and black tights .with black heels for the evening, and open toed heeled sandals in a browny nude color for daytime!!

Re: What can be done with this frock?

Why do u wanna ruin the dress :(
