Whether you’re a bride-to-be or a wedding guest dealing with the chaos of shaadi season, Yasmin Zaman’s festive formals offers designs that makes dressing up feel less like a chore and more like play. Her dresses strike the perfect balance between old-world charm and contemporary cuts, ideal for those who want their clothes to look standout. From jamawar ghararas and embroidered dresses to mirror-worked lehengas in bright candy hues, each piece is rooted in tradition but styled for the modern desi girl. You can dress them up with teekas, jhoomars, or floral braids for a bride’s mayun or tone them down for a sister’s dholki with fresh skin and a slick bun. These can be easily paired with a subtle or dramatic makeup look and hairdo, depending on your style and the occasion.
Whether you’re building your bridal trousseau or just need a showstopper for one of the many shaadi events on your calendar, these looks are versatile, statement-worthy, and designed to make you feel like your version of festive…
This dusty rose kameez with sheer sleeves and gold tilla work pairs beautifully with a dramatic jamawar gharara. The floral detailing and gota-finished dupatta give it a dreamy, delicate feel. Style with jhumkas, a teeka, and khussas for a nikkah.
A bold rust long kurta with fine embroidery and a mid-cut, paired with chata pati lehenga, creates a striking mix. The fuchsia dupatta lifts the whole look. Add a potli and chunky kundan to make it wedding-ready.
Low bun, glowing skin, coral lips, and bold brows, this look is sleek yet traditional. The jhoomar and teeka combo brings in old-school charm. Wear it to a mehendi or even a close friend’s wedding.
A lime green kameez with mirror work, worn over a candy-toned lehenga in bright zigzag panels, makes this look festive and fun. Finished with a blush pink net dupatta, its best styled with chunky bangles and a statement choker for a mayun or musical night.
Slick hair into a neat bun with pink lips and a touch of highlighter to keep the vibe young and fresh. Minimal eyes, bold earrings, and the choker pull the whole look together. A great pick for daytime events.
Warm bronze eyes, a soft rose lip, and flushed cheeks create a glowing base. The side braid with red roses adds a romantic touch. You can also ditch the teeka and go for a blowout if you want to dress it down for a casual dholki.
