LAHORE: 

Since its inception, the Beaconhouse National University (BNU) has had the misfortune of being perceived as a school, where malingering adolescents hang out and party. Therefore the thesis presentation of BNU’s 2011 class, which certainly displayed ingenuity and craftsmanship at its best, certainly came as a pleasant surprise. Whether it was fine art, jewelry jewelry , photography or textile, each exhibit’s meticulous skill and innovative design wowed onlookers. “We have the best faculty and it’s all due to their efforts,” said the principal Salima Hashmi, while still candidly admitting that National College of Arts (NCA) remains the hub of the country’ beaded wedding dress sashes s most talented art students.

The students’ art work on display can be lumped into two categories — wholesale handbags wholesale handbags; commercially viable pieces and conceptual art in the form of artistic installations. The corpus of art with popular appeal included innovations in simple products of everyday use: summer cocktail dresses Munazzah Kulsoom’s beautiful prayer rugs incorporating Picasso’s cubism paired with traditional motifs, Mehwish Khan’s newer model of the charpoy incorporating Turkish bokcja and Zunera Raza’s hand crafted macramé hammocks. Komal Ehsan’s work was the only fashion project, exhibiting a mythical superhero studded with conical origami shapes. Drawing inspiration from this pollution-obliterating incredible “green” crusader, Ehsan had created a synthetic origami jacket and a dress dress constructed entirely from conical hand bags. The ingenuity and finishing of the young artist’ brides dresses summer 2012 brides dresses summer 2012; designer wedding dresses cheap designer wedding dresses cheaps were simply marvelous.

Graduating students like Hina Anwar, Tayyaba, and Momina Nasim used abstraction to express their artistic vision. Anwar crafted a tunnel called the dark muse to depict her weaving techniques while Tayyaba created a sponge city. And Nasim’s installation illustrated the paradoxical attributes of a women’s fragility and strength, by juxtaposing fish wire and thread woven together.

There were other beautiful and creative projects on display which are worth a mention: Saima Abaidullah exquisite lamps created from common pins, Waqar Ali’s eccentrically fun jugnu ties and wall installations, Ayesha Shafiq’s lovely mosaic of embroidery, paint, leather and transparency wall dividers, Aiza Shiekh’s furnitures inspired by coffee froth and Anum Javed’s mood uplifting space inspired from ‘Alice in Wonderland’.

The exciting exhibits managed to attract quite a few spectators. Fahad Husayn, the creative fashion designer and former students of BNU, had invited all his fashionista friends to the event. Husayn, who was also the thesis counselor for graduates in the textile department, enthusiastically gave guided tour of the projects displayed at his alma mater.

“Our students are so well equipped. They have access  something as basic as a quilt, to creative interior design solutions and concepts,” the designer explained proudly.

Regarding his own experience at BNU, the young designer said: “We were the first -batch of the textile department at BNU and we had immense creative freedom to do what we want, floral summer dress to use whatever material we wish to.”

Kiran Khan, the head of the textile department at BNU echoed a similar sentiment about the university’s superior emphasis on artistic freedom and originality. “Indus Valley in Karachi has always held a very traditional focus in their work, which is great too but we need to move beyond. The NCA is very product oriented and students are advised that their work must be sellable foremost,” explained Khan.

“I wanted my students to be thinkers, irrespective of whether they were artists or craftsman. I wanted them to make a contribution to the world through design. And not just textiles but use plastics and new materials.”

This year’s thesis presentation shows that BNU students are capable of being just as original and creative as their counterparts in more established art and design schools Plan your wedding using namedress.net, your complete guide to wedding planning, wedding ideas, wedding dresses, wedding engagements and more., like Pakistan Institute of Fashion Design. And just like the way textile designers are able to highlight their work at myriad fashion weeks, these promising debutantes at BNU should be given an avenue for showcasing their work at creative events and presentations.

Brides are not letting gender stand in the way of asking close friends to be part of their special day.

JARROD Lukies was surprised and a little confused when he was approached by Raquel Handley (nee West) to be her male attendant — or bridesman — on her wedding day.

"I thought she was joking," the Cobram-based farmer says. "I didn't know whether I'd have to dance with a guy or a girl; whether I'd have to carry flowers, halter top prom dresses go to the hens', that sort of thing. But it was a great experience."

It's a situation, namedress.com offers thousands of online wedding supplies and wedding accessories for your wedding day. We are a wedding discount according to Bride Magazine fashion editor Kirstie Armiger-Grant jacket dresses , that has become more common in recent years. While attributing much of the trend to Hollywood rom-coms such as My Best Friend's Wed-ding (1997), Made of Honour (2008) and Sex and the City 2 (2010), she says wedding and gender traditions have "loosened up", particularly in the past decade.

Another factor is that couples are paying for their weddings in full. "Many brides don't necessarily want the wedding organised along traditional lines by their parents; by paying for it themselves they have total control, including having a close male friend in their bridal party bridal party if they wish."

Ms Armiger-Grant believes a societal shift where "children are no longer raised with a 'boys in one corner and girls in the other' mentality yellow bridesmaid dresses ," and the age of the "metrosexual" have aligned men's and women's interests and resulted in an increase in meaningful, non-sexual friendships.

But, she adds, the more traditional gender differences can help ensure a bride's day runs more smoothly. "Having a male in a bridal party can avert the whole 'Bridezilla' thing. A guy is less likely to get caught up in the emotion of it all and be a good grounding influence.

"I've had some women say a male perspective is nice because they're more brutally honest . . . Plus they're good at all the logistical stuff."

Melbourne-based Karly Forshaw and Cameron Barnes are one couple who embraced the trend in more ways than one. On their wedding day earlier this year, Karly had her best friend of 11 years, Luciano Balloi, as her "bridesman", while Cameron was flanked by his "groomsmaid" Hayley Pearce.

"He is somebody who I'm closest to in my life," says Karly of Luciano. "I couldn't imagine him not being there with me."

Karly says their break with convention didn't please everybody. "Some of the relatives couldn't take it seriously. They were worried it would take the attention off us; that it was too much of a novelty."

But the doubters were won over in the end.

"Luciano did all the girls stuff, even trying to catch the bouquet, and Hayley posed with cigars for a groomsmen photo.

"People could see the support they were giving each of us. It was clear he was there for me — hot pink bridesmaid dresses cheap hot pink bridesmaid dresses cheap in fact he was probably more emotional than the female members of the bridal party."

Luciano says he hadn't realised being a male bridesmaid was possible. "Especially coming from Italy and being used to somewhat more sober Catholic weddings. But I was honoured to be asked — color bridesmaid dresses color bridesmaid dresses I would have worn a dress for Karly!"

He says he "loved the experience — and doing all the girly stuff".

Karly says people shouldn't worry about tradition and etiquette when it comes to their wedding day. "It's so important to think about who is important to you, and who you want to be surrounded by on the day. Don't let anyone dictate how you should organise your own wedding."
