As Eid 2025 is just around the corner, the fashion world is abuzz with the latest trends. One style that's taken the internet by storm is the Farshi Shalwar. This traditional South Asian attire, rooted in Mughal history has captivated designers, brands and fashion enthusiasts alike. Characterised by its regal and elegant look, the Farshi Shalwar reaches the ground, creating a dramatic silhouette. Derived from the Persian word "Farsh," meaning 'floor,' this style was once reserved for royalty.
After a brief decline, the Farshi Shalwar has made a comeback, particularly among the younger generation who are drawn to its majestic and sophisticated appeal. Here, we've compiled some best looks served by Pakistani actresses rocking the Farshi shalwar trend.
