Yasmin Zaman

Yasmin Zaman’s collection followed and its simple palette and clean lines were refreshing. Zoning in on the modern-day wedding, the designer presented a fusion line with plenty of dresses, lehngas, and short shirts paired with sleek cigarette pants.

Her embroideries were particularly interesting, worked into distinctive swirls and borders. Not your usual phool-patti which may be pretty but is instantly forgettable.

I liked that Zaman's clothes weren't drowning in embroidery.


Having said this, this was a very wearable collection; the sort that can truly be appreciated while on retail racks and would, I feel, be bought immediately.

A retail-friendly collection for the most part.


Up on a spotlighted catwalk, the clothes would have been less memorable had it not been for the designer’s collaboration with jeweler Haya Lutfullah. Haya’s teekas and elaborate neck-pieces complemented Yasmin’s understated signature.


Ayesha Farook

Ayesha Farook likes flowing silks, kaftans and fitted boleros. They have always been a mainstay in her brand and they dominated her collection, which was the last of the day.

AFH brought a very signature showcase for Day 1 of FPW.


I wish that she had been more innovative; perhaps experimented with fabric or colour if not with the silhouette.

Maybe she went over the top with all that silk.


This was a wearable line and I imagine that the designer’s clientele will make a beeline for the kaftans, the tunics with billowing sleeves, the long, floating silk dresses.

Stars steal the show on Day Two of FPW 2019

FPW-Feature-image.jpg



Out of the 15 designers set to showcase their collections at Fashion Pakistan Week 2019, held at Karachi’s Beach Luxury this year, seven collections took the ramp on day two: Stella Jean, an Italian designer who collaborated with local artisans from Chitral, Gilgit and Hunza, Humayun Alamgir, The Pink Tree Company, Zuria Dor, Zellbury, Splash and Maheen Khan, who closed the show.

The collections on display were not as exciting as one would have hoped. While Stella Jean, The Pink Tree Company and Maheen Khan highlighted their strengths by displaying their command over colour, embroidery and silhouettes, other collections were lacklustre and lacking cohesion or innovation.

However, the star power on the ramp made up for an otherwise fashionably disappointing evening, especially Humayun Alamgir’s show that had several celebrities dancing across the runway.

Actors Ali Safina, Muneeb Butt, Fahad Mirza, Asad Siddiqui, Agha Ali and Shahzad Shaikh didn’t just walk the ramp, but put on a show as they waltzed out and danced around. To top it off, they seemed to be having as great a time as their audience.

Other celebrities to walk the ramp included Naveen Waqar, who gracefully made her way down the runway for The Pink Tree Company and Hina Altaf who walked, albeit a little clumsily, for Zellbury.

Celebrities such as Zara Noor Abbas, Sarwat Gillani and Moomal Shaikh could also be seen in the audience. The show was also attended by many foreign diplomats, including US Consul General Robert Silberstein, German Consul General Eugen Wollfarth, Italian Ambassador Stefano Pontecorvoste with his wife Lidia Pontecorvoste, Mike Nithavarnakis from the UK Embassy, key TDAP members and Zahir Rahimtoola among others.
