Day-2 of PFDC L’Oréal Bridal Week 2014 was opened by Shamaeel Ansari who made her PFDC platform debut with her bridal couture collection, “The Wedding”. The collection comprised of pieces for all wedding functions including bridal outfits for trousseau, mayun, mehendi, bari, nikkah and even for sisters of the bride and groom. The ensembles had been designed on rich silks, thread embroidered surfaces, antique vintage gold coiled work, recreation of embroideries and antique tankas in zardozi with thread work. Shamaeel had used shorter cuts for young girls, dramatic moods and dramatic coats wearable by all ages and lengths in the formal regalia. With a distinct color palette including shades of saffron, burnished metallic, dramatic black, marrakesh reds and pristine ivory, the collection focused on mother of pearl tones for nikkah wears, bright vintage looks for main events and saffron incorporations in embroidery and threadworks. Jewellery for the designer’s showcase was provided by Waseem Jewellers.
