What is this called?

hi everyone…
Does anyone know what this style of dress is called? I wear hijab including an abaya…I am going to my best friend’s wedding and I thought this style almost resembles an abaya (well being both dress like). Does anyone know where I could get a dress similar to this?
Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Its definately NOT like an abaya.

the last one is similar to an anarkali dress

Re: What is this called?

It's considered an Angharka...

Re: What is this called?

hey!
this particular dress is by nilofer shahid of meeras...
this collection was inspired by queen josephine and noor jehan... therefore being a mixture of both the royal eras, n styles.

this one has four pieces going on.. the bus-tier and skirt ( more european), the gown and the dupatta.

In case you’re curious, here’s the Nilofer Shaid show where the outfit is shown:
