[Zibago]

It have given my point of view. I am not going to elaborate it more to make it more acceptable to you nor explain it so that you can comprehend the actual meaning.

Is your issue him trying to make a 100 year fashion video,s Pakistani edition or with the portrayal of 60,s Pakistan?

Seriously man? I said my comments do not refer to this post/topic . It is about general trend when people say Pakistan/Iran/Afghanistan were very progressive in 60s and then they post photos of modern looking women, as if this is the scale of measuring progress of a country.

Hi, I am Arsalan Khan. Here is an artwork of Pakistani fashion.

How certain are you about the color palette of pre-1930 clothes - before color photography?

Well that is true we had more leftist movements back in the 60.s and people were more tolerant atleast in the cities on matter of faith

Not 100% certain at all, I used limited resources for this project. The 1910s fashion was more likely correct because it was the time that women of upper class were more traditional (just like Edwardian women), therefore mismatched colourful clothes was fashion back then. As for 1920s and 1930s, I used old black-white photographs of Lahore and Karachi as reference for this. The outfits of 1930s fashion appears more white to light colours while 1920s has somewhat silk parhaps.

Perhaps a museum with a textiles collection could assist you? Or maybe you can find statistics on dye sales to make educated guesses?

I find what you're doing very interesting and wish I had better suggestions for you.

Why no fashion museum in Lahore or Karachi or anywhere in Pakistan??
