Swara Bhasker’s Bareilly reception outfit has to be her most talked-about look so far! The gold lehenga set was designed by renowned Pakistan-based designer, Ali Xeeshan. However, did you know that Swara is not the only celebrity bride to get one of her bridal ensembles shipped from Pakistan?
Before Swara, Gauahar Khan got her nikaah outfit custom-made by a Pakistan designer. Here’s all you need to know about the look:
When Gauahar Wore A Pakistani Designer
Gauahar tied the knot with Zaid Darbar in December 2020 and broke the internet with her opulent ivory gharara set. It was designed by Saira Shakira from the popular label Laam. The set was richly embellished with a combination of pearls, sequins, and intricate cutwork. Gauahar’s chikankari dupatta added to the nawabi vibe of the outfit!
The gorgeous look continues to live rent-free in my head!
Here’s the deal—just like India, Pakistan has an array of handcrafts, garment embellishment techniques, and designers that can be explored by Indian brides. And why not? If we can proudly flaunt Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and other foreign brands, we can also explore the sartorial goodness that our neighbouring country has to offer!
