Zahra ahmed experience??

I want to know if anyone has ever experienced buying stuff from Zahra ahmed?? I bought 2 dresses from her,both were ready to wear but needed alterations so i had it from them, zahra herself took my size n dresses & promised me to return them back on next monday, when i went to her boutique on monday the salegirls said which dresses we dont know abt anything, then they tried to call her but her number was busy, then she said come on next monday, 1 more week :(, & take ur dresses, anyways i called them on monday to confirm before going & they said no the dresses will arrive tomorrow so come tomorrow, anyways today i went to take them & atlast got them Thank God..

I saw her mehndi dresses & ohhhhhhhhhh God..they r Gorgeous.. much more beautiful in real as compare to pics. & i’m going to have my mehndi dress from her, but they all r samples & u need to order a new dress, but when today i went to her outlet i saw a girl crying n shouting at the salesgirls, while zahra herself was absent. & she was shouting n getting angry cuz her dress was totally different as she has ordered, they totally changed the work n stuff n prints i wonder, when i asked her abt the dress she told me while weeping that see this is the sample “THE AMAZING ONE” brocia ghagra in 3 colors full of mirrors n kundan work on kurti neckline with matching brocia dopatta full of mirrirs. then she showed me her outfit & i was like :open_mouth: ??? the skirt was too short but so so, & surprisingly the top was totally different with No mirror or kundan work at all instead of it there were extra stupid machine embroided very big leaves all over shirt which were looking so stupid, & the dopatta stuff… i think even my mom didnt had that type of dopatta on her wedding in 1980’s, it was so strange with all red n glitzy shiny stuff n strange patterns, she was true for crying n shouting, & she told me she gave her order before 2 months so even in 2 months they couldnot prepare anything nice & now only 5 days r left in her wedding & now they r giving the dress at the last moment…poor girl.. :frowning:

so nowgirls before ordering my Mehndi outfit from her, i want to ask if there is anyone else too who had a really bad experience with her? or any good experience with her? plz do share, & wat do u say should i order from her or not? i have meet her inpersonal n she seems to be really nice n decent lady, but i think she is still new in this field so not very professional or maybe she is too busy in her family??? as there were always his kids calls inbetween our discussions.

anyways i’m looking forward for ur advices, plz plz help me out to sort it out (mehndi outfit matter)

& do share ur good or bad experience with her. thanks alotttt

Re: Zahra ahmed experience??

Doesn't seem that you should trust her after what you saw happened with that girl. But, how did the dresses you ordered turn out? Where is her outlet? Are you Pkaistn based? If so, you have many choices, not just Zahra Ahmed.

I dont know anyone that has any experience with Zahra but if I were in your position I would look for another designer. You definitely do not need this kind of stress during your wedding. I went with Karma for my bridal outfit and that was cuz they were professional, and had a great attitude. Didnt go with nomi ansari because hes a total douche and wouldnt go with anyone who would remotely upset me during my wedding.

Now, if you have looked around at other designers and just absolutely love a particular dress from Zahra then you should speak directly with her and tell her you dont want any of that BS and be assertive, at the same time dont be rude and tell her exactly what u want and that u need it at a specific date.

Re: Zahra ahmed experience??

it is my personal suggestion at such a time when it is your function which will only happen once in your life insha'allah you should not take a chance with someone unless you are completely sure they will give you a positive experience...you have other things to worry about too without having to worry about how your dress will turn out to be....go find another designer you myte like their work better and if not tell them what you want and they will make it for you
