Bangladeshi Fashion

These photos are copyright Kazi Arefin. He is a well-ranked amateur fashion photographer. Some of the women aren't professional models either (except the first one which I think is Safa Kabir and Ruma as well down below).

Hmm Interesting ... we've got a girlish name " Mahjabin" in Persian ... "Mah" as prefix means "moon" and "Jabin" means "forehead" .... a person whose forehead shines like a moon ...

Bangladeshi Bengali (and maybe that of West Bengal in India as well) uses a lot of borrowed Persian (Farsi) words in the language. Also lot of borrowed Turkic words. A few examples but this is by far not comprehensive.

Yeh to India-ka kahani bhi hai bhai.....
