It has been about a year since the buzz about Heeramandi started in B-town and spread like wildfire across borders. The incredibly talented cast, first looks, main theme, and the idea of showcasing this majestic masterpiece in Lahore made it a much-anticipated series on Netflix!
When it comes to aesthetics, Sanjay Leela Bhansali always brings perfection to the screen, but this time, we feel like he outdid himself when every frame looks like a piece of vintage art!
The ambience and portrayal of the much controversial “Heeramandi” in its full glory couldn’t have been done more aptly! The internet does believe Mr Bhansali went a little overboard with the sophistication of the dialogues, but we cannot deny the magic of these dialogues!
It was a bold move to captivate the most controversial women in history in the most magnificently glorious way! We can go on and on about the storyline and how refreshing it was to see this patriotic side of the picture showcased, but right now at Vogue Vocal, we are all about the looks, and oh boy, are we in awe of the looks served!
It evoked a sense of vintage modest fashion and lowkey made all desi girlies walk around in their shararas, all dolled up in jewellery, and not forget that gorgeous “Nath.”
From Bibo Jaan and Alam Zeb‘s modest and simply beautiful flowy outfits to Sonakshi Sinha, aka Fareedan‘s over-the-top glamorous sarees, everything oozed perfection and finesse! So brace yourselves, as we are pretty sure we are going to see a lot of fashion inspo from Heeramandi looks in upcoming Pakistani weddings! The designer duo Rimple and Harpreet has set the bar high for any upcoming period movies or bridal fashion!
