White Pakistani Frocks
In white, a frock looks almost weightless. The long, flared shirt falls from a fitted or empire bodice into layers of chiffon, net or organza, and in white every fold and every thread of embroidery shows. It’s a favourite for Eid, summer weddings and daytime events, and it takes silver, gold or pastel embroidery equally well. Like every guest outfit in our Pakistani wedding frocks collection, these arrive within 18 calendar days, and delivery is free on orders from €200. Because white shows whatever is underneath, check the lining details before you choose.

How a frock differs from a suit
A Pakistani frock is a long shirt, usually knee to ankle length, with a flare that starts at the waist or under the bust. It’s worn over churidar, straight trousers or a sharara, with a matching dupatta. Compared with a salwar kameez, it has more movement and a more dressed-up line. Compared with an Anarkali, it’s often softer through the bodice and may be layered or open at the front.
Layers and lining
A white frock is usually built in layers: a sheer outer fabric such as net or chiffon, sometimes doubled, over a lining. The more layers, the fuller and more opaque the frock becomes. Look for a full lining through the body, and if the sleeves are sheer, choose the free half or full sleeve lining when you order. Off-white and ivory frocks are warmer than pure white and a little more forgiving in photographs.
Where a white frock works
White frocks are at home at Eid, summer parties, family lunches and other daytime events. At a wedding, avoid white if the bride is wearing it for her Nikkah; a white frock with a coloured dupatta in pink, green or turquoise is a safe compromise. If you’d like white in a simpler cut, see our white salwar kameez, and for a flared white bottom, the white sharara suits.
