My cousin bought two outfits - both really nice. She doesn't
bargain though

The outfits are exactly as shown in pictures.

they have a new website-
www.udcstudio.com

She's local. I definitely need to make a trip one day. I've heard only good things.

A friend of mine has bought several outfits from her time to time. All of them were great, no complaints. Outfits are almost identical to what she shows in pictures. I'd say go for it.

I have bought 3 suits from her. Like someone already mentioned no bargaining, which actually works out. The suits are exactly like they are pictured.

I personally think that the outfits look even better in person as compared to the pictures... I have bought several outfits from her in the past including a bridal as well... Every time the outfits have come out fantastic and also you can customize any outfit you want...

i dont know but some of her outfits look kinda "cheap material" u can say or maybe its just my mind. but i think if ur spending $275 on a non designer outfit why not pay a little more and get the real thing. Thats what i did but then again im a chicken at trying new things. Lemme know how ur experience went.

I like some of her jewellery and I was going to buy some earings but then I saw a bangles which I bought from Anarkali for around 1500-2000 rupees and she is selling it for around 6 300 rupees and thats overpriced according to me.

Nice collection but overpriced!

WhateverFloatsUrBoat · Jan 30th, 2009, 12:03 PM

yea definately overprice...people who don't go to pak often would be suprised about what 5-10000 rps can buy in pakistan, and how those same things are sold at 5 times the price here.

Sara516 · Jan 30th, 2009, 12:05 PM

Some people prefer buying oerpriced items b/c they think teh quality is better. Sometimes it is sometimes it isn't.

njgal · Jan 30th, 2009, 12:49 PM

Compared to pakistan - yes she is expensive.

But if you compare her to the prices in North America she is pretty reasonabally priced and has quality clothes.

For ppl that don't go to Pakistan or cannot have relatives send clothes - she is a great option

Mabrook · Jan 30th, 2009, 02:33 PM

^^thats how even small scale designers r making their place by ripping ppl off coz we ppl r letting them by proving yes u r right money does grow on trees overseas

Sara516 · Jan 30th, 2009, 03:47 PM

^ that's a good point. Collectively, when designers and reatilers see that the overseas market is actually WILLING to spend extraordinary amounts b/c they believe they are getting quality, they can (and dO!) totally take advantage. I firmly believe that you can get ghatya quality from designers and good quality from non-designers as well.

But--and not in defense of outrageous prices from subpar designers--you simply cannot change the mind of every individual, I know i have been guilty of spending a bit more than nomral b/c I just loved the design/style...and I think that's why alot of ppl spend alot more on clothes. (in a small way i think we're lucky we have so many home-based designers emerging on gs!)

Its kind o fa no win situation...

rabia3983 · Jan 30th, 2009, 04:42 PM

^^ but its not so easy for everybody to go to pakistan and get clothes...or have family who can send them nice outfits. so a lot of ppl dont have a choice but to order frm these desinger n pay the price.
