1/6Pakistani designers copy Indian designers

While we proudly flaunt lawn suits procured from Pakistan, some well-known designers from our neighbouring country have started taking some serious inspiration from the biggest names in the Indian fashion industry and mind it, the 'inspiration' is so strong that their garments end up looking like replicas of the original designs.

In the past, there have been quite a few incidents of Indian designers copying western designs, but Pakistanis seem to be way ahead of us in this game of inspiration! Here's a look at some Pakistani outfits that have been blatantly copied from those designed by Indian designers.

2/6A made in Pakistan 'Manish Malhotra'?
0
Imagine Pakistan's beautiful women donning breathtaking Manish Malhotra creations, the only difference being the fact that those ensembles have actually not been designed by Manish Malhotra. One such outfit invited a lot of wrath on social media and it was designed by none other than Elan - a leading design house of Pakistan with popular coveted couture, pret-a-porter and a ready-to-wear lines.

3/6Dear Sabyasachi, make way for Sabyajhooti

As if the Chandni Chowk made cheap replicas of ace designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee's latest creations were not enough! Well, the master craftsman has to now battle out his counterfeit clothing being churned out in thousands every month in the bylanes of Lahore. But, it's not only the local shops that have been openly copying his designs, a lot of big names in the Pakistani fashion industry are following the suit. The above lookalike of Sabya's ivory-gold lehenga has been designed by famous Pakistani designer, Ayesha Aejaz.

4/6A copy of Anita Dongre
0
Anita Dongre must not have known that her winter 2017 collection 'Tree of Love' would become such a hit all across that a Pakistani label would actually rip it off and add it to their own collection. Well, that's precisely what Cross Stitch (Pakistan's leading fashion retail clothing and fabric brand) did when they copied this particular kurta for their lawn 2018 collection.

5/6Sabya, again?
0
Pakistanis seem to be in love with all the Sabyasachi Mukherjee creations and not only is he the most popular wedding designer in Pakistan pretty much like India, but also the most-copied across the border! And, Cross Stitch seems to a serial defaulter when it comes to copying creations of Indian designers! Check the golden floral embroidery on the two garments on the right, isn't it similar to the original on the left?

6/6Atsu sari and its Pakistani version
0
This gorgeous embellished yellow sari was a part of designer Atsu's 2014 couture collection, but a similar sari was found in the collection of famous designer Alisha Hashmi as well.

Meray Bhai, presented above is totally false, same like other Indian indigenous claims. Not Indian, actually all the present day Indian Dress/fashion etc is copied from present day Pakistan designs and culture and history.

" India was the one of the first places where cotton was cultivated and used even as early as 2500 BC during the Harappan era. The remnants of the ancient Indian clothing can be found in the figurines discovered from the sites near the Indus Valley Civilisation, "

Harappa and Indus Valley is in Pakistan.

Why Indians like to feel happy by lying to and fooling their own selves?

That is very good, it takes talent and special skills to master any art.
Good luck with your future endeavors.

Do ppl in pakistan wear sarees ? dont fool yourself.

"
In the history of Indian clothing the sari is traced back to the Indus Valley Civilisation, which flourished during 2800–1800 BC around the northwestern part of the Indian subcontinent.[4][5][6] Cotton was first cultivated and woven in Indian subcontinent around 5th millennium BC.[16] Dyes used during this period are still in use, particularly indigo, lac, red madder and turmeric.[17] Silk was woven around 2450 BC and 2000 BC.[18][19] The earliest known depiction of the sari in the Indian subcontinent is the statue of an Indus Valley priest wearing a drape.
