Nayna is AWESOME as well.

I've only seen Nayna online. I don't think there's a Nayna collection in the UK (yet).
Pakistani Designers are good. 
Check out Assiya Arif. I like her stuff too.

Don't do it.
You had your moment. Now let her shine at hers.

ask her if she'd be okay with it. just don't wear the dupatta on your head.  |

wedding outfits are only to be worn at your own wedding. unless you can REALLY tone it down and tailor it so that it looks a lot more plain and not like a wedding outfit, i'd say don't do it.

don't wear it. especially not with the train still attached.
if you can fix it up so it looks less like a valima outfit, and more like party/wedding wear, then maybe...
i wore my valima outfit to afeef's cousin's valima, but i totally dressed it down. i wore a cream hijab, the dupatta was just on my side, like on my shoulder and arms, and i wore minimal makeup, minimal jewelry, etc.
oh, and i think i was pregnant too. ahahahahaha
so yea, i didn't steal the show from nobody.

Re: Bridal Wear
i think it depends on your walima outfit. if it has a train, thats probably not a good idea. My walima outfit is way to intense for me to probably ever wear it again unless i'm forced to.

how long is the shirt for the sharara? a lot of my cousins will make a shalwar with their wedding shirt..and then wear the wedding outfit with the shalwar instead of the lehnga/gharara/sharara, that way you dont have to waste the outfit and your're not stealing anyones thunder either.
