When I called him with the idea of wearing his work @walima, his warmth and generosity made me admire the person,” she tweed, further adding that the designer not only sent “jodi outfits” for the duo “but customised them painstakingly with personalised details and messages embroidered into the exquisite garments. My sarhad-paar ki bestie @Natrani
