I'm asking the wise women of Mumsnet - Im white British and have been happily married to a Pakistani Muslim man for the last ten years and currently 8 months pregnant - my conundrum is I have a nikkah to go to in 2 weeks and my two Asian wedding outfits definitely don't fit!
Any advice on where to buy with a quick delivery and maybe returns! I have googled and I'm coming up blank.

I'm not Muslim, but Seraphine usually sell long sleeved maxi dresses. Would those work?

Are there no Asian shops or dressmakers near you? It's a risk ordering online this close to the wedding.

There's one 20 miles away and it's a bit rubbish but I'm going to head there at the weekend.
Only found out about the wedding yesterday hence the rush

Shukr.co.uk is quite generous with sizing - I've had some nice loose abayas from there. You could pair a loose plain one with a sparkly open one?

You could also post this in South Asian Mumsnetters if you're specifically looking for Asian fashion.
