Ok guys lets start posting pixs....what is everyone planning on wearing or already know what they are wearing....
I really wish these designers would update their websites so we know what is in style but unfortunately if you don't have access to the fashion magazines ...it is hard to keep up with the trends...

we don't really go to pakistan so i rely mostly on the websites but this time nobody is posting new designs or anything.

so let's hear it............

well..the only reason i posted this early is because once ramdan starts everyone gets busy in fasting, prayiing....iftar parties ...extra extra.........and us being in USA have to order the clothes in advance so we can get them on time and it ususally take 2-3wks....

This is what i am getting made, its an Umar sayeed design. There is also another one that I have with ribbon work.



Yes, we have to begin early if we are ordering from Pakistan. The long shirts are in with a front opne style with sherwani style collar and capri pants or trousers. I am also trying to pray more than usual though

Very nice indeed! Where are you getting it made from?

I also tried to start a discussion on Eid clothes, but man the backlash or outcry is unbelievable, anyway I will share the clothes I'm making with you.

here's a fashion forecast for 2008
What color is in the most? Is emerald green popular? Also are maxi's in at all?
And one more question, what is in with hair color? Sorry for the bombardment of ques., just i've been trying to get some answers to these ques, and have had no success at that!

^ Navy blue, emerald green, off-white, beige, burgundy are all IN!

For hair color it's mostly warm chestnut, roasted browns.

a sari most likely. my mom got me a gorgeous pale tan chiffon sari with lots of little sequins, and a very lovely fully embroidered silk blouse with it.

I am getting it made through my tailor in Pakistan. I am based in the US but I email him and talk to him over the phone regarding the fabric I want and any changes etc. Eg in this one I want the shirt color 2 shades lighter than the one shown.

Are you getting all of these clothes made or are going to decide from amnong these? I like both black ones and the purplish one.

Sounds lovely, can we see pics? Seems like tan is your favourite color.

I'll probably be wearing this suit I got from Nadia Lakdawala:

::: NadiaLakdawala.com ::: NADIA LAKDAWALA

It's the first outfit on this page (NL-NA30) but on mine she used burgundgy instead of red.
