Eight farshi shalwar sets for the ultimate Eid outfit inspiration

Eight farshi shalwar sets for the ultimate Eid outfit inspiration

Farshi shalwars are back — and our Eid wishlist proves they may be here to stay.
Updated 10 Mar, 2025

Farshi shalwars are having a moment. Let’s face it — you open Instagram these days for a peaceful scroll and BOOM! Another model, celebrity, or influencer is posing in a voluminous farshi shalwar. Ten minutes later you inevitably find yourself Googling “farshi shalwar in Karachi”, given Eid is right around the corner and you need some outfit inspo.

The credit (or blame, depending on your shopping budget) goes to Sadaf Kanwal. She brought this silhouette roaring back with her Rosa ’23 collection under her eponymous label. The line was minimal, yes. But that dramatic flared shalwar? Anything but. And like clockwork, everyone wanted one.

Rooted in royal Mughal fashion, the farshi shalwar has always been a symbol of grace and elegance. Think flowing silk, majestic gathers at the ankle, and a little drama with every step. Once worn by queens and princesses, it’s now going to be the ultimate Eid flex with everyone and their mothers talking about it.

Now, before you faint at the price tags — we get it. This list isn’t a shopping cart; it’s more of an inspiration board. We’re not suggesting anyone spend a whopping Rs89,000 on an outfit for Eid (unless you can genuinely afford it).

Instead, take inspiration from the cuts, colours, dupatta pairings, and embellishment details. Even your trusted tailor can work magic if you bring in the right reference. farshi shalwars are all about the silhouette.

So if you’re ready to add some old-school charm (with a very modern flair) to your Eid look, here are our favourite farshi shalwar sets — ranked from most to least pricey:

Luxury

1. Raja Salahuddin – Daffodil (Love After Love Eid Edit ’25)

Price: Rs89,000

This mustard sheesha silk ensemble is drenched in hand embellishments, subtle pink contrasts and ornate embroidery. The farshi shalwar makes this outfit perfect for your inner Mughal empress.

2. Hussain Rehar – Pay Day Vol IV (Butter Yellow Raw Silk)

Price: Rs85,000

A buttery burst of sunshine! The sleeveless raw silk shirt features a sharp slit neckline and textured weaving at the hem. But the real star? The two-toned yellow farshi shalwar.

3. Sajni – Helen (Canary Yellow Rawsilk Set)

Price: Rs72,000

If your Eid vibe is “fashion-forward but make it Mughal,” this one’s for you. Canary yellow raw silk adorned with silver-gold cut dana, pearls, sequins, and embroidery — this set screams glamour. The dupatta sparkles just enough to make heads turn without blinding your relatives.

A splurge

4. Sparkwear – Coral Shalwar Set

Price: Rs49,900

Coral and lime green — an unexpected pairing that totally works. This set features hand-embellished block-print detailing on the farshi shalwar and a contrast dupatta that ties the whole look together. Sequins, crystals, beads — you name it, it’s on there.

5. Zainab Shamsi Studio – Eid Edit (Ivory Silk Ensemble)

Price: Rs39,950

Elegant, understated and luxurious. The mirror-embellished short kurta and embroidered farshi shalwar are all about subtle sophistication. Paired with a lightweight dupatta bordered in mirrors, this one’s for those who prefer regal over OTT.

6. Sadaf Kanwal Fashion – Fuchsia Pink Raw Silk Set

Price: Rs34,800

The OG trendsetter returns. This minimal yet statement-making set pairs subtle gold button detailing with a bold fuchsia hue. Add the flowy organza dupatta and you’ve got a classic look with a modern edge.

Slightly more affordable glam

7. Sapphire – Eid Edit Farshi Shalwar Set (Blue Cotton Net)

Price: Rs24,990

Slightly more affordable glam alert! With sequin and tilla embroidery, this blue cotton net number offers just enough festive flair without breaking the bank. The organza dupatta and detailed shalwar hem keep things Eid-ready.

8. Sana Ibrahim – Tussle Silk Co-ord Set

Price: Rs16,500

For the minimalist who still wants a moment, this co-ord is chic and fuss-free. With an embellished neckline and bow detailing, this set (complete with a soft organza dupatta and flowing farshi shalwar) is perfect for a laidback Eid brunch or intimate gathering.

These beautiful outfits are mostly very very expensive. 50k, 85k? For a single outfit? I love the yellow colour though. This appears to be THE colour for spring/summer.

Pakistani fashion needs class, meaning add saris to the mix.

A gym going 25 yr old will look good regardless the outfit. In the west they have shifted to models more like the average man/ woman, gives one a better idea of how they would look in reality.

Fashionable? Yes Practicle? No way. Can you imagine the state of the paunchay after a day of being swept across floors, both inside and out? No, thank you!
