Pakistani Style: Fashion Forecast


While I was at Generation the other day, one of the workers kindly offered to give me a little heads-up on the fashion changes that are about to occur. Brace your selves, the shalwar is coming back in fashion! I don't even remember the last time I wore a shalwar? This season the shalwar is going to have a khula (loose) paincha. I actually like the khula paincha look. The Churidaars/thung pajama's are going to be even more trendy during fall/winter. I love the churidaar, it looks classic, elegant and ethnic. It's one of those key pieces that can be worn, whether its 'in' fashion or not.


I've been hearing about this since last December/January, and now I guess it's finally happening. It was bound to happen. *Sigh*, the shirts are getting shorter! They're still going to be below the knee, but definitely shorter than we've all been wearing them these last few years. Trousers/flappers are going out of style! My heart has broken about three times by now. Ha!ha! I LOVE trousers/flappers, I can't bear to say good bye to them yet! Can you?


Frocks are still 'in' and so are shirts with chotay (small) chaakh! (Thank God!!!)


*Please note: when standing the length of the frock will be shorter 

How do you feel about all this? Are you excited or dreading it?
