Before you set your heart on traditional Pakistani dresses, let’s take a brief look into the historical significance of the dress, how it came to be, and its development throughout the ages. Then, we’ll look at what’s trending, the best picks from Shireen’s latest collections and how to accessorize to perfection!
The Historical Significance of Pakistani Traditional Dress:
Pakistani traditional dress has a rich and layered history that goes back over 7,000 years to the Bronze Age when cotton cultivation in the Indus Valley first laid the foundation for the textile industry. Due to its unique geographic location—bordering India, Iran, Afghanistan, China, and the Arabian Sea—Pakistan has long been a cultural crossroads, absorbing influences from countless civilizations, including the Persians, Turks, Mongols, and Arabs. The interactions led to the creation of the Pakistani fashion identity.
The most significant impact on traditional Pakistani dress comes from the Mughal Empire. They have given us iconic styles. The iconic Anarkali suit, once worn by Mughal courtesans, has now evolved into a timeless staple. With comfort, grace, and deep-rooted tradition, the Pakistani shalwar kameez continues to reign as the national dress—modern, modest, and majestically desi.
Why is Pakistani Traditional Dress Always Trending?
Pakistani traditional dresses are more than just clothing—they’re stories that are stitched into fabric. From the flow of a gharara to the lightweight drape of a dupatta, every piece says something about our roots, style, and personality.
And let’s face it—there’s nothing quite like twirling in a lehenga or strutting in a kurta that makes you feel like a desi queen. The best part of buying a Pakistani traditional dress is the large selection of styles, colors, and embroidery details.
Fabric Talk: How to Stay Cool and Stylish for the Summer Heat
Let’s be real: Eid in June is no joke! However, that doesn’t mean that you can’t look fabulous. The reason why so many fashionistas opt for Pakistani traditional dress for Eid is for the breathable fabrics. This Eid, you can still look amazing without melting by choosing the right fabrics, such as:
· Cotton Lawn: The best choice for summers as it a lightweight and breezy fabric that keeps you cool throughout the day.
· Chiffon: If you are looking for an elegant fabric without feeling stuffy, then chiffon is a great choice.
· Organza: Who could ever resist the temptations of organza as it adds glam to the overall dress without melting you into a puddle. If you don’t want a whole outfit made from organza, then you can get an organza dupatta instead as it will take your Eid outfit to the next level of wow.
· Silk Blends: For evening parties and dinners, a Pakistani traditional dress made from blended silks is a great choice.
· Net: By adding net fabric to your outfit’s sleeves, hem of the kameez, and even the neckline of a lawn dress, you add a touch of an elegance without making it too stuffy.
Pro Tip: You can layer the dress with breathable linings and add slits or flares to stay comfy.
