Ohaila Khan's green lizard gown reads like light moving across scales. Gold-toned sequins and beads are scattered in short, squiggling strokes over green tulle, densest at the bodice and loosening toward a sheer hem that pools into a sweep train. Underneath, malai lycra keeps the column close to the body. Thin spaghetti straps rise from a straight neckline and cross over a bare back, and a matching band with a gold buckle marks the waist. The line stays long and slim, with all the movement coming from the embellishment rather than volume. Wear it to a museum benefit, an awards night or an evening wedding reception.
The Ohaila Khan label draws inspiration from architecture, culture, and nature to craft unique designs that celebrate individuality. Renowned for merging non-traditional embroidery with classic elements, her collections redefine festive contemporary wear. Each creation reflects her vision of breaking geographical barriers, blending global influences with timeless silhouettes.

What does 'lizard' mean in the green lizard gown's name?
Lizard is Ohaila Khan's own color name for the green lizard gown, and it describes the effect of the beadwork. Short strokes of gold-toned sequins and beads are scattered over green tulle so the surface shimmers like scales.
Which gown color stands out at a museum benefit gala?
Green stands out among the black and navy that dominate most galas, and the green lizard gown by Ohaila Khan adds gold-toned beadwork that catches the light. Its slim column and sweep train keep it formal enough for a black-tie benefit.
What wrap or coat goes over a gown with a crisscross open back?
A long black velvet coat or a sheer gold wrap works over the Ohaila Khan green lizard gown on the way in. Take it off once inside, since the crisscross straps over the open back are the gown's best view.
Is a green beaded gown appropriate for an evening wedding reception guest?
Yes, the green lizard gown by Ohaila Khan suits a guest at an evening wedding reception with a cocktail or black-tie dress code. Green avoids the bridal whites and reds, and the scattered beadwork reads festive without competing with the couple.
Will the green lizard gown arrive in time for an event six weeks away?
The Ohaila Khan green lizard gown ships from India in 4 to 5 weeks, and delivery takes 5-7 business days after dispatch, so six weeks covers it. Import duties are paid by the customer on delivery, and all sales are final.
