Traditional Khussa captivates Eid shoppers
From the delicate scent of decorated feet to the vibrant hues of khussa complementing festive outfits, Pakistan's traditional footwear is once again taking centre stage in Eid markets, as young girls and women flock to purchase designs that blend culture, comfort, and contemporary fashion.
With Eidul Azha fast approaching, markets across Islamabad and Rawalpindi are abuzz with colourful dresses, jewellery, and bangles, yet some of the largest crowds are gathering around khussa shops. Social press reels, fashion vloggers, and online trends are increasingly shaping customer preferences this year.
From pearl work and tila designs to mirror art, dabka embroidery, and stylish net khussa, shop windows are brimming with colourful pairs to match nearly every Eid ensemble.
In Karachi's Company Market, Maria finally found an olive-green khussa to complement her Eid suit after visiting several shops. She stated khussa had become the easiest way for girls to match footwear with every outfit without expenditure heavily on expensive brands.
"Every girl dreams of coordinating clothes, jewellery, and shoes at Eid to stand out among friends and cousins," she stated. Maria further stated that khussa was stylish, affordable, and comfortable, thanks to its soft leather and lightweight design.
Nearby, Sofia, selecting pastel-coloured khussa, observed one of the most distinctive features of traditional khussa: it has no fixed right or left foot. "The same pair can comfortably fit either foot, which also extends its lifespan," she clarified.
