Some scholars had said that but it seems that it is a major sin and not kufr.

I am very confused because I know Muslim women are not allowed to imitate the kuffar women, if a woman wants to wear nice clothes at home for family and husband, how can she do this without buying western clothes?

There is nothing wrong in wearing western clothes for the husband as this is worn by many women in the Muslim world and it is not only for the disbelieving women!

it is well known that it is not permissible for a woman to have a bun at the top of her head for it resembles a camel hump. But what if the bun is in level or below her head and not above? Some women need to make a bun as they have quite long hair and cannot let it down or it might show through her headscarf. Please clarify

I wanted to know if it is allowed to participate in the pre wedding henna/mehndi parties common in the indian subcontinent. I have heard the hadith where our prophet says he who imitates a people is of them. I am of the understanding that this celebration is from the hindu culture. If the event was within our sharia guidelines (no free mixing or music) would it still be impermissable due to the background of the ceremony? Is there any basis in islam for celebrating it?

This is a Hindu tradition and it is not permissible for Muslims to practice it. However, if all Muslims practice it now without any imitation to the Hindus and there is no mixing and no non mahram would see this, this is permissible.
