The winter celebrations

Here come winter ladies and many of you would say thank God for that, since summer seems never ending. So will it be a fun month or is it going to be a shivering one? For Karachities it is more of a party time as there are lots of weddings taking place and then there is Eid. So what do you all do, start making new clothes what else! Well why not, but certain wise women also recycle their old suits in such a way that they can look new again.

For this, it is advised to take your designer’s help who can give you professional advice on what’s in and what’s not this season as they have more knowledge in the business and will be able to help you better.

This season you can also wear brighter colors but again I would say don’t go on what people would like to see you wear but wear what you would look good in, in accordance to your figure, complexion and lifestyle. As winter approaches, you need to wear warmer, thicker fabrics, but choose designs that would accentuate your figure, as thicker fabrics may make you look a bit heavier.

In Karachi the weather allows us to wear thicker cottons in the mornings which look very smart when tailored well with a good cut, design and trimmings. Thick cotton suits look best in straight cuts. You can also get away from wearing -dupattas in winter by wearing matching shawls which can be enhanced by light embroidery and trimmings for the evenings. This will make you feel warm and in style too. Short shirts with straight pants also look good as pants stitched in warm, thick fabrics look very smart. Teenage girls with slim figures look very smart in short shirts but older women should not become adventurous by making very short shirts. For winter evenings you can also wear layered designs in flowing fabrics or drape a coat and slip on designs accentuated with work.

Winter in our part of the world, does not last for a very long time so you can save your sleeveless outfits for summer as they do not seem appropriate and rather out of place, just as thicker fabrics look and feel out of place in summers.

Finally, remember clothes should be worn in sync with weather. In winter wear winter clothes and bright colors and in summer wear summer clothes and light colors and pastels and not look out of place. Here I would like to add, please wear clothes keeping your complexion, figure and lifestyle in mind and have an individual style rather than copying your friends or others.
