Slaams....I am new on here I really hope u can all help me out. I am from the u.k and currently the weather here is hot! very hot!!

I am not a total xpert on asian/pakistani clothes but like to wear them as often as I can. Unfortunatly the variety in the UK is not something that i like..i.e the material is not nice or the prints are just simply awful.

Can anyone suggest websites/fashion houses etc where i can buy some casula summer clothes?? many websites I come across sell very detailed and full on embroidery dresses, im not a big fan of this. Like to keep things simple and jazz up with accessories!!.....I have heard of Gul Ahmed...amazing prints

Is there anyone that is intrested in making me some clothes?? I jus want some casaul dresses...like a kameez with zip, nice neckline and capri/staright leg trousers...

Anyone intrested or if u can point me in the right direction....that will be most appreciated.

many thanks

Mary

If you are near Manchester have you tried Blackburn?
They have some really good readymades on Whalley Range right now
I know what you mean about material and designs - there's not usually much available in cotton or lawn. In Blackburn though, they have some great designs and materials at very reasonable prices.

Also, there is now a SuitsMe store in Blackburn which is VERY reasonable in price too.

Hope that helps!
