Fashion Pakistan Week Winter/Festive: Here’s what’s interesting!
Skipping out on the fashion week calendar where Autumn/Winter events are mainstays, Karachi’s Fashion Pakistan Council (FPC) has opted to host its fashion week in the tail-end of November.
Originally slotted to take place in early October, the event has now aptly been renamed ‘Winter/Festive’. Better late than never – the designer line-up looks very promising, boasting Karachi’s heavyweights alongside two of the biggest names in bridal fashion from Lahore.
Fashion week stalwarts Shehla Chatoor, Sania Maskatiya, Deepak Perwani, Ayesha Hashwani, Wardha Saleem, Sana Safinaz, Maheen Karim, Elan, Nida Azwer, FnkAsia, Zaheer Abbass, Zainab Chhotani, Tena Durrani, Faraz Manan and Nauman Arfeen will be showcasing at the event.
Nida Tapal’s Delphi also features in the line-up, a brand that shows sporadically but never fails to hit the mark. Nilofer Shahid has been roped in for the grand finale and Umer Sayeed makes a comeback to the catwalk.
One looks forward to newcomer Hisham Malik’s show. The designer won in the Bank Alfalah Rising Talent category earlier this year at the PFDC Sunsilk Fashion Week and is going to be venturing into bridals and formals at FPW. Obaid Sheikh is another relatively new name.
