Wedding season in Pakistan runs from November to February, and most of us are guests far more often than we are brides. You want to look polished in photos, stay comfortable through a long evening and keep your coverage, without buying something you will wear once. Here is how we style Hassal pieces for each kind of event.

1. Mehndi and dholki: colour and easy movement

Choose a co-ord set in a warm colour that lets you sit on the floor, dance and move. A two piece suit with a relaxed top and full-length trousers works better than a fitted dress. Add statement earrings and flat shoes for the dance floor.

2. Barat and evening events: structure and shine

For formal evenings, a tailored three piece suit or a long dress in a rich fabric reads as dressed up without being bridal. Our suits and winter dresses pair well with crystal or strap heels and a small clutch.

3. Walima and daytime functions: soft and refined

Lighter tones, knit textures and clean lines suit daytime events. A knit co-ord with a cape or a faux fur collar keeps you warm in December without a heavy coat. See our faux fur knit suits and capes.

4. Outdoor winter weddings: layer smartly

Lahore and Islamabad evenings get cold. Layer a long coat or cape over your outfit and choose closed shoes. Browse winter outerwear.

5. Rewear the pieces

The advantage of co-ords is that each piece works on its own. Wear the trousers with a knit top to the office, or the top with jeans for dinner, so one outfit becomes three.

Quick checklist

  • Check the venue: indoor hall or outdoor lawn.
  • Pick one statement: colour, texture or jewellery, not all three.
  • Break in your heels before the event.
  • Order early: sizes can sell out in wedding season.
