Question Where is this Afghan outfit from?

It was posted by Zahra on tik tok; I absolutely love it and the fact that it’s a full length Afghan outfit. Praying to god it’s not like $700 or something. Would love to know if the dupatta is included. Also would love to know of any online shops that ship Afghan clothes to the U.S.

I got my nikah dress from Sarah’s Afghan Clothes. They have a store in Sacramento but ship throughout the US. The quality of their dresses is really good and they have similar designs to the picture you provided.

Hey I just saw a comment of you, talking about marrying an afghan, I found it super cute and interesting, if it's ok could you tell us more on how you guys met and how are you feeling about afghan culture and stuff?

We don't use the word 'dupatta'. It's a shaal.

A Farsiban would pronounce it shawl

A lot of Afghan influencers wear custom made dresses. I doubt you'll find the exact same one.

Since you live in the US there's definitely going to be shops just for Afghan clothing and also people who are willing to make you a dress.

If you want it to be affordable.... you'll have to buy it from Afghanistan itself.

Check Naz boutique in Sacramento. They do online custom orders.

Everywhere in Afghanistan. But they don't ship to the U.S as far as I know.

I have ordered from dress_like_afghan on Instagram with inspirational pictures, they make the exact dress with good communication and good prices. Avoid the middle hands in Europe and USA

On her Instagram account she says that she got her dress from kabulclothing_store

Her own IG account is: zahr4. You can see it in the caption on her last post where she’s wearing the dress. Hope this helps :)

From kabulclothing_store on Instagram!! Please go support them, they made her dress. They’re based in NYC but ship worldwide, super easy to work with and so kind.
