Assalamu'alaykum everyone!
Haven't opened up a thread here in ages, but I need your help!!

Here's the deal:
I've bought this fabric because I was going gaga over the sparkly dots on it. Thought it looked kinda nice, but now I'm pretty clueless as to what to make out of it! I'm going to Pakistan next month, so I need ideas fast.

So please, help a sister out?










w'salam!

i say get a peshwaz made out of it, with long sleeves(which are see through) get kaam done all over the chest and back and then have it slightly pleated from right under the kaam. also have kaam at the bottom of the peshwaz and at the end of the sleeves, make the kaam a random color like green or baby blue, and whatever the color of the kaam, make the dupetta the same color. so an all black peshwaz with a random color dupetta.

I'd make an anarkali out of it...with a black and silver fitted top and churidaar sleeves...and this can be the botton (flared) part of the anarkali...I'd make with it a churidaar of the same jamawar used for the top. And prolly a plain chiffon black dupatta with a "banarsi" patti...







Some days are a complete waste of make-up!

Thank you girls for the lovely ideas, I'm going to draw them out as soon as I get some time.
Really appreciate your help!

In the meanwhile, if you come with more ideas, please do share and keep 'em coming!

& oh.. some of you were mentioning churidaar sleeves, it's the same idea as the churidaar pijama right?

Predatory


My mom makes gao takiye out of leftover fabric...lol

I like the idea of the anarkali outfit with chooridar sleeves and pajama can be plain black. The dupatta can be the same fabric with a banarsi border on it.

Or make a sari like one of the posters said...this would make a nice sari too.
