Jason Shurland pulled out all stops and created a striking black and gold gown for Melicia Partab and matching kurta for Hashim Alli, co-founders of Nachle Designs, who got married on July 30, crushing the myth the a bride in black is a bad omen.
The couple wanted a look that said fashion, Mughal and royalty that stayed within the limits of their Islam religion, since outside of the box is what defines Jason, he was approached, he said.
“I was not shocked when they told me the colour, as they’re [renowned] people within the fashion industry and which bride and groom would not want to be different on their wedding day? I had done wedding dresses before but nothing close to this one and not for a Muslim bride and groom either,” Jason said.
