In Pakistan March is the month that all fashionistas wait for with huge
interest as the top Pakistani designers present their new summer collections
and set the trends in design and fabrics.
If you wish to escape from all of this, you can’t. You are trapped. I
believe that the outdoor advertising market is enjoying this season as much as
all the ladies out there looking for the latest trends. There are 2 predominant
types of billboards that I’ve seen all around Karachi: one for political
campaigns for parliamentary elections and the other for countless new
collections coming up from new as well as from renowned designers.
In all honesty my knowledge about Pakistani fashion is reduced to few
names and few trips to designer stores. I still remember a pair of fabulous
trousers and a delightful kurtis that I’ve seen back in 2010 in a designer
concept store in Zamzama.
This year I have the great opportunity of finding new things about
Pakistani fashion as Fashion Pakistan Week is coming up organized by Catwalk Production & Event and handled by
Catalyst PR & Marketing.
With a great experience in organizing impressive events, I am sure that Catwalk
Production &Event and Catalyst PR & Marketing will bring glamour to a
new level this year, as they have up to 30 designers confirmed for the 4 days
event.
La crème de la crème (Bunto Kazmi, Sana Safinaz,
Faiza Samee, KamiarRokni, Shamaeel Ansari, Maheen Khan and Deepak Perwan to
name just few) and upcoming
promising designers will take the stage and present their ideas in Fashion Pakistan Week and, hopefully, will prove to the whole world that
Pakistan is not only a place of turmoil, but a place with great artistic
potential, colorful dreams and fashionable people.
