For years, Eid menswear in Pakistan was a known quantity: boring beige or white kurtas, usually stitched en masse for entire families. Grandfather to grandson, everyone wore the same yardage. It was tradition, but it left little room for expression. Celebrities also were no different. But this year, Mohsin Naveed Ranjha helped shift the dial.
Cricketers like Naseem Shah chose deep, tobacco-brown embroidered kurtas from the Eid collection — formal, yes, but far from expected. Babar Azam appeared in a cool pistachio green with tone-on-tone threadwork, paired with sneakers that broke the mold. Then there was Adeel Chaudry, restaurateur and food entrepreneur, in a clean, white kurta pajama set named Zaydan — pared-back but tailored enough to look intentional.
It’s not about men dressing louder. It’s about dressing better — with options that feel festive without defaulting to flash. For once, men weren’t an afterthought in Eid fashion. MNR gave them room to move.
