IT was a hit. This Bridal couture week took place in Karachi and Lahore. Various designers from Pakistan such as Lajwanti, Hajra Hayat, Shireen Hasan, Reem, Deepak parwani and e.t.c were present. Also, India's very famous J.J. Valaya was also present there in Karachi to showcase his work, which was worn by Meera.

Does anyone has the pics of pre partitioned Lahore, especially of places like Gwala Mandi, Heera Mandi etc;

There is a saying in Punjabi-'Jinne Lahore nai vekhya, te janma hi nai'.
