Western style wedding gowns

A lot of places offer western style wedding gowns for veiled women. I dug into the Hijab Magazine 2007 Catalog, and found some less flattering dresses there. I mean, I’m really into egyptian fashion, but some of the clothes just can’t make it to my wish list.. Like my mexican friend said to me when shopping in the City Stars mall; “they are into something, but they just can’t get there”… HereΒ are the best wedding gowns from the 2007 edition:

I think I’d rather trust turkish designers on this one… I don’t know why but somehow they manage to make the dresses way more elegant, with way less sequined stuff. I want one like those underneath from Bala Couture! Now that’s flawless glam for the most important day of them all πŸ™‚

    The white wedding dresses just don’t do it for me. It’s a bit old fashioned and does not really give the impression of Islamic wear. It reminds me of a classical church wedding. Cape Town muslims in the last 2 – 3years have been going for the colourful dresses mainly being oxblood red, sea green, silver and gold dresses and they look stunning. Being from Cape Town myself I wore a silver wedding dress 10years ago with the traditional silver medoura pinned into the most beautiful tiara style ;which is common in our culture here. So yeah white just does not do it for me…..

      Although some brides are more creative, white is still the preferred colour, even here in Cape Town. Others would be ivory, peach and maroon and shell pink. Other colours are usually reserved for bride’s maids and the rest of the bridal party. But I agree with you, nothing can be compared to the medoura! It is absolutely stunning and can be pinned in to a variety of styles!
      These dresses are not bad, but just does not appeal to me. Some are too drab while others are just seriously overdone! That is best left for the bridal cake. Uffff. Hard finding good Turkish designs online….
      The skintight sleeves in the second photo is just absolutely awful! I had to look twice!
      I like how the long veils are draped over the shoulders! ^^;
