Choosing the Perfect Festive Dress: A Style Guide for Women

Allow me to warmly welcome you to the particular time of the year dedicated to joy, warmth and fun. Best of all, everyone dresses up regardless of age. Be it the blessed Eid of Ramadan, weddings or any cultural program, the search for the perfect women festive dresses can be likened to a never-ending search for that prized or affected by.

Relax, however, style savants! You can say thank you to this guide and think about the captivating phenomena of Pakistani festive attires in a funny fashion with the pinch of hair-pulling chaos (because what is style without drama!).

KNOWING YOUR BODY TYPE: KNOW YOURSELF

Before you head off into the sea of fabrics and glitters, sit and pinpoint your body type. Are you in the apple, pear, hourglass, and probably rectangle categories? Identifying your shape is akin to having the compass to unravel the most challenging puzzle for that perfect dress you are constantly yearning for; only this time does it become straight. Also it's a very crucial step in buying luxury pret dresses for women.

Apple Shape

Aim for A-line silhouettes that I gently leave above the tummy. Long kurtas with straight-cut pants or lehenga cuts that sway seamlessly come to mind.

Pear Shape

Look for dresses with a defined waist and flared skirts. An embellished Anarkali can work wonders here! Hourglass: Lucky you! Most styles will look fabulous on you. Fitted dresses accentuating the figure are your best friends. Rectangle Shape: Use layers or peplum tops to create volume in the upper body. A flowy sharara can mimic that ideal hourglass shape one covers!

Colour Palette

Brighten Up Your Wardrobe In Pakistani fashion, colours are like those spices in a biryani: indispensable! Pastel princesses or lovers of loud colours, whichever you are, we have these special festive tips for you: You can get an idea by trying on a ready to wear dress, after several attempts you will start understanding the concept.

Bold Colours

Deep red, emerald greens and royal blue are party colours. Just one thing: Wear it without clumsily spilling any of it (that red curry can be tricky!).

Pastels

Light shades like baby pink, lacey green, and pale blue can be worn during daytime events. Do not let those aunts come to your head if there are too many pastels on you, or a baby shower might be the next thing on the agenda!

Metallics

Bluish gold and shimmery silver should be worn for events that fall in the evening. Girls wear them head to toe, like possessing the right to do so, so why not? Take caution; no one should be rendered blind by your shine. Shawls for women should be bought in specific colours to be carried with every style and dress.

Occasion Matters: Daytime vs Evening Glam

Choosing a lovely dress also depends on the occasion of the dress and the time of the event. Looking at the day function, who is interested in turning up in style and intending to walk down the runway at the Paris Fashion Week?

Daytime Events

Use lighter shades of fabric and colours like pastels, nudes and soft floral pots if it is a day function. Light silk or cotton lawn with limited ornaments is ideal—something for women dressing during day functions sophisticated and light-weight – not a bling bang-floor launching disco ball.

Evening Glam

There is no need to hold back; go ahead and be a diva! One requires more complex makeup or hairstyles for evening functions as it is more of a go-out function. Fabrics such as velvet, silk, and chiffon in darker, rich colours are perfect for this period.

Women silk dresses are a special add in your wardrobe that will make your wardrobe absolute classic. But remember that the more bling you add to yourself in the night, the more flattering pictures you will have in all those Insta pictures!

Mixing Tradition with Modernity: The Fusion Vibe

In the past couple of years, women seeking to marry the old and the new have quite comfortably embraced fusion fashion.
Adding modern touches to traditional Pakistani outfits is the best thing you can do to look different and unique.

Crop Top and Lehenga

Pairing the traditional lehenga style with a modern crop top is a fashion bonanza. It’s stylish and respectful of the culture as well.

Peplum Tops with Shararas

Shararas are back, but the difference is that they are worn with short peplum tops this time. This new version allows you to achieve the right balance of vintage sophistication and contemporary style.

Jumpsuit with a Dupatta

What’s the big deal if jumpsuits have been outlawed for anything festive? Put on a jumpsuit, a dupatta and some jewellery and hey, look, you are into fusion and know how to work it!

Fabrics That Speak Festivity: Feel the Texture

Moving on to the festive dressing, let's talk about fabric. Fabrics are pretty important when it comes to dressing up for a festival. When in Pakistan, one will come across several different gorgeous fabrics, each beautiful.

Silk

Classic does not go out of fashion just like this Sia Green dress! It looks great when draped as it does when worn and adds a sense of sophistication. For silk and curry, however, total respect goes out the window.

Chiffon

Excellent to wear on other clothes and in summer wear. It is as light as air, or should I say, “as light as some of your uncle's best attempts at humour- practical and uncomfortable at times!”

Cotton

We always want cotton in whatever we wear; it’s just so comfortable. Embroidered cotton can be so beautiful and festive without its wearers feeling discomfort. It’s like the best bottom wear - the pyjamas, only this time accentuating your butt.
Choosing the Right Style: Let’s Get Creative!

Jul 28, 2017 – Jul 31, 2017: Apparel, Costumes, Head Garments; Layering- Gok. Now that your body type, colour, and fabric are sorted, it’s time to explore styles. Check out some of these styles that you would give a double take:

Anarkalis, A Flattering Classic

Although it fits within South Asian attire, this Islamabad dress could easily be called the Pakistani equivalent of Dior’s petite robe noire—the absolute attention of Russian belles. The yellow status is particularly striking; although good camouflage, black tango gowns are never entirely black.

It can be dressed and undressed by its purpose and requirements. It can be such a great outfit, especially with statement necklaces that complete the look! It adds further excitement as funny “recipe” signs are taped around between those uncorked bottles.

Sharara: The Dance Floor Favourite

Do you wish to make a twirl in all of the shares? Make sure to wear this at weddings or festivities. With the flaring in at the bottoms and the detailed works, it sure does say, “Please focus all your attention on me.” Match it with a trendy short kurti, and behold, heads turn. Only your dance moves must be fabulous, and you should not forget the outfit when somebody’s toes get stepped on!

Maxi Dresses: Where Comfort Meets Glam

Pula Green dress my friend, is what we call a maxi dress: all about comfort and style. And with the use of bright blocks and free-flowing fabric, they are for all the girls who want to be free but look gorgeous simultaneously. And you can have biryani to your heart’s content without worries about having the button pop!

Long Kurtas: The Essential Drape

Let alone the long kurtas with palazzo or churidars for the festive wardrobe, which is something that cannot be done away with. You are cute in them, they are comfortable, and you can access them to whichever you like for the different events. Just ensure that you don’t drop your dupatta down. It is rather obstinacy!

Accessorising Like a Queen: Take Your Look Up A Notch

Let’s face it: no outfit looks complete without practical accessories. And in the fashion world, accessories make things all over beautiful instead of ordinary.

Here’s how to level it up:

Jewellery Overload

The Bigger, The Better! Do not shy away from putting on heavy jhumkas, oversized chokers and bangles that jingle like something like a band troop is in session.
