Additionally, Lahore based menswear designer Rici Melion along with Zasimo, Sameer Karasu, Almirah, Hana, Khaas, Sanoor and So Kamal will be making their way on the ramp with high street, lawn and debut collections. Keeping the tradition of promoting new designers ‘The Rising Talent’ segment will bring shortlisted young artisans Zeeshan Mohy-ud-din, Hafsa Mahmood and Mahnoor Azam to the prestigious stage for the first time. These talented individuals were shortlisted from a list of 24 fashion students in Pakistan.

 

Zara Shahjehan will be returning to fashion week after 2 years, with a collection modernising Lucknow.

 

The early evening shows will include high-street lawn showcase while the shows later in the evening will feature high-end labels. Khadija Shah’s Zaha — a popular lawn brand of the country — will also be presented for the first time. What everyone has been looking forward to at this three-day fashion fiesta is Nomi Ansari’s first sportswear collection. In collaboration with local and upcoming sportswear brand, Nomi has created separate lowers, tops and more for both men and women. Nomi is famous for his flamboyant bridal wear so, this is definitely the hook of this season.

 

Kamiar Rokni, who has recently resigned from Sapphire, is showing a collection that connects craft of the world.
