The beautiful red Benarasi khadi sariis distinguished by its katan border embroidered withZardosi work. However, the sari’s main section has been intentionally left without elaborate designs or embroidery, aligning with Mousumi’s desire for simplicity.

The border of the sari featured the kalka motif, which was also integrated into her bridal dupatta. Mousumi paired this sari with a brocade blouse, complementing the look.

Shafayet drew inspiration from vintage designs and Mughal-era architecture. “I am inspired by traditional sequins work and Mughal-era designs, which are reflected in the bridal dupatta.”

For the groom, Abu Sayeed Rana, Shafayet designed a coatee made of dupion silk with the kalka motif, accompanying a white panjabi and pyjama set. A red square pocket was added to match Mousumi’s outfit.

“Rana chose not to wear a sherwani, so we designed a coatee with similar motifs to Mousumi’s attire,” Shafayet said.

According to Shafayet, the groom has a Punjabi friend who will be designing the pagri. So, Shafayet provided them with fabric and a broach to complete the look.

Speaking of the bridal makeup, Shafayet said, “Zahid Khan is doing her make-up and Mousumi wants minimal makeup on her face as well.”

Mousumi’s choice of the red Benarasi khadi sari from KhanSaab Studio – thoughtfully designed by Shafayet Hossain Khan – prettily balanced traditional sensibilities with a touch of modern minimalism. This choice not only highlighted her elegance but also paid homage to the rich heritage of bridal fashion.

With coordinated attire for the groom and carefully selected accessories and makeup, the couple’s wedding attire was certainly worth the praise and showed the harmonious blend of tradition and personal expression.
