In contrast to Maria B, Hsy believes that the Farshi Shalwar trend is for everyone

The Farshi Shalwar trend has recently gained an immense popularity on social media. Almost every designer shows this traditional but chic outfit in their latest collections.

From influencers to models, everyone seems to include this dramatic and graceful piece of clothing, which quickly becomes a wardrobe basic food.

However, not all fashion experts with this new trend are on board. While many sing his praise, others, including some designers, have expressed their reservations.

Farshi Shalwar, a style that is deeply rooted in the Mogul kings, has achieved a massive comeback. Known for its voluminous silhouette, which reaches the ground, is of rich historical importance.

The Persian word “Farsh”, which means “soil”, perfectly describes the flowing and dramatic nature of the garment. The Farshi Shalwar offers a majestic, royal appearance with luxurious silk fabric and gathers on the ankle.

Once worn by Queens and princesses, it is now being hugged by the fashion-forward generation and ready to adopt this oath with its newly discovered popularity.

There was even jokes on social media, which indicates that the Farshi Shalwar could soon become Pakistani national dress of this oath.

The Pakistani designer HSY shared his thoughts about this viral trend during his appearance in Nida Yasir Ramzan Show Shaan e Sahoor.

In addition to the actress Areba Habib, HSY discussed the Farshi Shalwar and offered the view of the fashion designer Maria B and offered his own perspective on the trend.

While Maria B believes that the Farshi Shalwar is better suited for younger, tall and slim girls, Hsy gave a more integrative opinion.

“Everyone should bring it closer. Farshi Shalwar is a great choice for our culture because women come from Pakistan from different backgrounds, are some modern and some modest, but one thing is common among them that they all share a religion. It is their desire to look beautiful, but look modest.

HSY further explained that the Farshi Shalwar is not limited to certain body types.

“Let me tell you that you can wear a Farshi-Shalwar with a knee-length shirt-it looks incredibly stylish and elegant with a long shirt. It is a misunderstanding that it should only be worn with extremely short shirts. My collection shows Farshi-Shalwars with long shirts. Even bulky women can choose longer cuts (Chaak).

HSY not only shared his thoughts about who can carry the Farshi Shalwar, but also gave some helpful tips for those who think about doing or sewing it.

In a step that impressed the fans, HSY refused to make gatekeepe, and communicated his sewing hacks generously and said: “It's all about the customer.”

He also shared some fabric recommendations, especially for those who want a stylish look without breaking the bank to buy pure raw silk. For everyday life, he proposed Cotton as a perfect option, while Double Georgette serves as a cheaper alternative to raw silk for more chic occasions.

While the Farshi Shalwar continues to dominate the fashion scene, HSYS have shown inclusivity and advice that this trend can be accepted by everyone, regardless of the body type or budget.
