What is the difference between sharara and gharara?

Shararas flare from the hip/waist for a continuous wide-leg silhouette. Ghararas are fitted from waist to knee, then flare dramatically below the knee with gathered panels. Both are traditional Pakistani formal wear.

Yes, shararas are perfect for Pakistani weddings. They're appropriate for mehndi, nikah, and walima events. For baraat (main wedding), heavily embroidered shararas work well, though lehengas are more traditional for brides.
