Actor Hania Aamir has spoken out against the growing trend of harsh fashion criticism directed at brides, saying such moments deserve empathy rather than judgment.
Sharing her thoughts on Instagram stories this past weekend, Aamir said fashion critique has its place but weddings should not be treated like fashion shows. “Fashion critique makes sense on runways, campaigns, red carpets,” she wrote, “but I’ve seen too many brides turned into review material on their wedding day, and I genuinely don’t understand the point.”

She questioned why people feel the need to criticise brides on one of the happiest days of their lives. “Why is it so important to tear apart someone who’s just trying to live one of the happiest days of her life? Some moments aren’t meant to be rated. They’re meant to be felt. Empathy will always be more stylish than criticism,” Aamir added.
Actor Maya Ali supported Aamir’s message by re-sharing her post and urging people to stop judging real brides. “Very well said, love,” she wrote, adding that criticism should be avoided “especially for real brides”. She ended her message with a prayer for newlyweds, writing, “Khush aur abaad rahein aap sab.”
Aamir’s remarks came after actor Sabeena Syed faced online criticism over her wedding outfit, particularly her Ali Xeeshan bridal gharara. Several fashion bloggers and social media users openly reviewed her look, treating her shaadi ka jora like a fashion moment.
Earlier, Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz son Junaid Safdar’s wife, Shanzeh Ali Rohale, also faced online trolling after wearing two Indian designer outfits at her wedding.
Maheen Khan, daughter of singer Rahat Fateh Ali Khan also faced online criticism over her wedding outfit choice after photos from her mayun and nikah ceremonies went viral. Some critics questioned her decision to wear designs by an Indian designer instead of local labels.
