Eid is an excuse for women to show off their embellished attires. We know that Eid is the time to get decked up but don’t go overboard. Nowadays, women prefer to wear trendy designer outfits. However, since it is summer time we suggest you to wear luxury lawn/cotton, with a hint of embroideries, on Eid. For Eid 2018, many designers and design houses have come up with their festive Eid collections. The designers have chosen vibrant colours to spread the embellishments and sequins on different fabrics including lawn, chiffons, lightweight silks, organzas and georgette. Their motto is to create fabulous silhouettes for women to look radiant on a happy occasion like Eid. This week, we have selected four beautiful collections for Eid 2018. Whether you opt for silk or lawn or cotton, the choice is yours so go and grab something colourful to wear this Eid...
