Our Pakistani weddings are incomplete without an expensive wedding dress for the bride! Let it be the ruksati or valima the dress is the centre of attraction. Many of you already have a dream dress in mind and since it holds a lot of significance, many of you are probably gonna pack it safely in a suitcase never to be worn again. But it’s time to change this thinking, don’t spend all that money on your lovely dress only to wear it once! We have ways in which you can utilise your dress casually and easily.
REUSE THE BLOUSE/LEHENGA SEPARATELY –
You can use you blouse with some other skirt/ lehenga and dupatta. If your blouse is heavy, you can use it with some plain skirt and dupatta. While if your blouse is light, you can wear it with a heavy dupatta and lehenga.
DAZZLING DOPATTA –
You can use your dupatta alone with any plain dress, and trust me it will look gorgeous!
CUT-OUTS –
If you don’t mind you can totally cut out the beautiful handwork and motifs and use it on suits, dupattas or anything you like.
USING DOPATTA AS A SAREE –
Usually, the dupattas we have at our wedding are pretty long. If you have a long trailing dupatta you can drape it over a simple skirt and style is as a saree. If your dupatta isn’t as long, you can still use it as a pallu over a plain skirt and style it like a lehenga saree!
TUNING IT INTO A KURTA –
you can ask your tailor to cut it into a beautiful kurta for you. This memorable heavy kurta will surely occupy a special space in your closet! You can wear it with palazzos, pants or even ethnic maxi skirts.
LEAVE IT AS IT IS!
Because there’s nothing wrong with wrapping your lehenga up in a suitcase and wearing it occasionally! We understand that your bridal lehenga has a lot of sentiments attached to it and cutting it up is something not everyone would like to do.
