If you're going for the princess theme, consider having you and each bridesmaid represent a princess. Each one of you can dress up as the princess at your bridal shower. At the wedding, you can wear the bridal inspired by your princess and each one of your bridesmaids can wear a formal outfit inspired by their princess. It'll be a fun recurring theme to look back on through your photos!

Top 13 Picks: Pakistan's Pantene Bridal Couture Week 2012

Pantene BCW 2012 was held in April and showcased the very latest bridal designs from top designers. We know we're quite late in posting this, but these outfits definitely deserve a second look! The fact that we couldn't even narrow our picks down to 10 should give you a hint ;) Let's start!

13. Nomi Ansari
We're starting off with this festive suit we think is a perfect colour for any season. Again, an example of elegant and divine full sleeves ;)

12. Aamir Baig
This stunning and flowy gown in blush pink reminds us of a spring garden!

11. Nomi Ansari
An amazing shade of green from Nomi Ansari, who always uses awesome colours. The spray of pearls is super beautiful!

10. Mona Imran
This is an amazing formal that ladies of all ages can wear!

9. Nomi Ansari
We thought this look would be great for a traditional and classic mehndi!

8. Obaid Sheikh
This is one of those classic suits you can wear for Eid, formal gatherings, or weddings. Check out the mix of colours and fabrics in the image below. Love it! 

7. Mona Imran
Red and black is a great colour combination in fashion and decor, but if it's done wrong, it can look horribly cheap. That definitely isn't the case here, this outfit is stunning!

6. Wahaj Karim (outfit); Nadia Chotani (jewelry)
We couldn't even recognize Sarwat Gillani all glammed up in this bridal outfit. Even though it is a cream bridal, it still looks so traditional. She looks gorgeous!

5. Asifa and Nabeel
Okay, so we kind of gasped when first seeing this picture. Everything about this is so regal. Where does one even begin - the colours? the jacket? the cut? the tassels? Oh God.

4. Nomi Ansari
So he does it again. This outfit has the perfect pop of colours - any bride who wears this to her mehndi is sure to stand out. These colours are like a lifetime guarantee for beautiful wedding photos.

3. Sana Abbas
This is such an elegant and cute mehndi/mayoun outfit. Combined with the flower jewelry, it's the perfect look for the super cute bride!

2. Tabassum Mughal
The gota kaam on the shirt is SO classy! Love it!

1. Asifa and Nabeel
The perfect example of today's trends. It has an amazing neckline, super long length, ombre effect, and the slit down the side of the shirt with the tassel is really in ladies, take a mental note! Asifa and Nabeel takes the show again. 

Elegantly Divine: Full-Sleeve Bridal Inspirations

Full-sleeve bridals are our latest obsession these days, so how could we not write a blog post about this super elegant look? Check out some of the styles we love below:

The Mahira Khan-esque Chiffon Sleeve

Yes, we named a category after Mahira Khan. Not only because we love her, but because she is probably the best model for full-sleeves. She somehow manages to carry them so beautifully. Chiffon sleeves are perfect if you prefer a lighter look for your wedding. Or, they would be perfect for your mehndi outfit! Notice that the sleeves on the yellow dress are actually ruched from the wrist to about half way up the arm to give a churidaar effect. Brilliant!

Teejays

Parkha Khan

Samer Usama

The Embellished Arm
I don’t think this category needs an explanation. The pictures below speak for themselves. Oh so divine!

Sana Safinaz

Bunto Kazmi
The outfit on the right is SO something Mahira Khan would wear! She even looks like her! 

Elan
Emerald stones on the sleeves are just gorgeous!

The Cuff Sleeve

Taking it a step further from the Embellished Arm, this style eliminates the need for bracelets. Beautiful and practical? We’re sold!

Parkha Khan

Mehdi

The Royal Jacket

Okay, so this is probably our favourite style. A regal jacket paired with full sleeves is just drool-worthy.

Loving this floor-length kameez - a very streamlined look!

5. Rouge
Navy blue was back with a bang this bridal week and we are so glad! You absolutely cannot go wrong with this regal and timeless colour.

4. Sara Rohale Asghar
The non-traditional route is a big trend for brides these days. We think this is the perfect mehndi outfit for the bold and regal bride!

3. Umar Sayeed
Fawad and Mahira from Humsafar fame (see our blog post here) rocked the finale in their gorgeous Umar Sayeed outfits. Totally loving the colours and the intricate kaam - having models like that to showcase it doesn't hurt either!

2. Rouge
This is Rouge's third appearance in our countdown, but can you really blame us? This outfit is just so beautiful and feminine.

1. Asifa & Nabeel
We are suckers for black and white, especially when it's done amazingly well like this. The white has just the perfect hint of grey and its silkiness against the bold black is just stunning. This is a classic piece that will last forever!
