Did Iqra Aziz copy Priyanka Chopra?

As the year swiftly moved towards the peak of the shaadi season, one celebrity couple that we’ve all been excited for finally tied the knot. The wedding festivities started off with a simple yet beautiful mayun, later the ceremony of mehndi was held and after the couple got nikkah-fied in a grand ceremony yesterday they had an intimate valima ceremony.

Yasir and Iqra’s wedding festivities have dominated social media for this whole week

Iqra looked stunning on ALL four days

She glowed in a  peela jorra on her mayoon. On the other day, Iqra looked mehndi perfect in her traditional mustard yellow frock. She wore a beautiful traditional red lehenga by Nomi Ansari on her nikkah and finally a silver/gray outfit for her valima, by Sadaf Fawad Khan.

#𝙄𝙌𝙔𝘼𝙎𝙄𝙍𝘿𝘼𝙑𝙄𝙔𝘼𝙃 Our most anticipated work this year was definitely this magnificent piece we customized for the lovely Iqra Aziz. An old school lehnga choli, all in the most vibrant shades of red, done our way with plenty of glitz and magic! The full sleeved choli and heavy lehnga is fully bedazzled with red-on-red embroidery and hand worked embellishments that include sequins, gemstones and more. Paired with a red net dupatta that’s embellished with an intricate border, and scatter of small bootis and chann. We loved creating this piece as much as Iqra is loving wearing it! .

Priyanka Chopra @priyankachopra makes for a stunning bride in a custom red Sabyasachi lehenga. Hand-embroidered and hand-cut organza flowers, French knots in silk floss, delicate Siam-red crystals and layer upon layer of threadwork embroidery creates this piece of impossible couture. 110 embroiderers from Calcutta, India took 3720 hours to create this modern masterpiece. As an ode to the resplendence of Mughal jewellery, her wedding jewellery was crafted with uncut diamonds, emeralds and Japanese cultured pearls in 22 karat gold and had delicate tiny stars in uncut diamonds to give a sense of whimsy to an important traditional piece. Nick Jonas @nickjonas wears a hand-quilted silk sherwani with a hand-embroidered chikan dupatta and a chanderi tissue safa. His rose cut kalgi and Syndicate diamond necklace are from the Sabyasachi Heritage Jewelry collection. @sabyasachijewelry Image Courtesy: People Magazine (c) Purple Pebble America, LLC and NJJ Entertainment, LLC 2018. @people Photography by @josevilla / @gettyimages Priyanka’s shoes by Sabyasachi Accessories @sabyasachiaccessories Nick’s shoes by Christian Louboutin @louboutinworld Wardrobe @stylebyami Makeup: @mickeycontractor Hair: @hairbypriyanka Wedding Design: Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla @abujanisandeepkhosla Venue: Umaid Bhawan Palace @umaidbhawanpalace #Sabyasachi #PriyankaChopra #NickJonas #Nickyanka #ChristianLouboutin #BridesOfSabyasachi #GroomsOfSabyasachi #SabyasachiBride #SabyasachiGroom #DestinationWedding #SabyasachiJewelry #SabyasachiAccessories #TheWorldOfSabyasachi @bridesofsabyasachi @groomsofsabyasachi

The similarities in the looks on the first look are that both, Iqra Aziz and Priyaka Chopra, wore red lehengay with a similar shade of red

People were curious to know if Iqra Aziz copied Priyanka Chopra and her lehanga was inspired by Priyanka’s outfit

There is no doubt that Priyanka Chopra’s look did start a trend for deep all red traditional shaadi looks lately. Quite a few brides, famous and ordinary ones, have sported similar shades.

So many people are saying that #IqraAziz copied or inspired by #PriyankaChopra but we don't think so..! #EntertainmentPopcorn

But people are accusing the designer of Iqra’s dress Nomi Ansari for copying the design by Sabyasachi

A few thought that the looks of Iqra Aziz and Priyanka Chopra could literally be carbon copies of each other

But there were people who argued that Iqra Aziz looked more stunning than Priyanka Chopra

They defended Iqra by saying that red color is the traditional color of the South Asian lehangay and many brides wear it

So, what do you think? Has Iqra copied the design or the only similarity between both the lehangay is the red color?
