Author: Saira Agha

RIZWAN BEYG — fashion legend Rizwan Beyg opened Day 3 with his collection titled Pearl Essence. Staying true to the title, the collection was based in hues of pearl whites fused in intricate embroidery and minimal embellishments that exuded elegance and grace. Lehngas, fitted bodices, mermaid skirts, trousers, kurtas and button-down shirts marked the esteemed designer’s collection. With a one-toned shade like that and practical outfits for the day and the evening, consider your summer wardrobe complete with this addition. Singer Asim Azhar showstopped for the designer in a white embroidered sherwani.

WARDHA SALEEM — brightening up the night further was Wardha Saleem with her collection titled Jhirki that emphasised on voluminous skirts, belted tops, emperor sleeves, V-neck kurtas and Benarsi borders. The colour palette was fresh, vibrant and perky consisting of magenta pinks, gold, blue and black. The block prints were uniquely stunning. Pure silks, organza and chiffons with embroideries and silhouettes were the highlights. Actress Sarah Khan showstopped for the designer.

MUNIB NAWAZ — next up was renowned menswear designer Munib Nawaz with his collection titled Dash. Straight pants, denims, colourful printed tops, stripes and boots marked the Lahore-based designer’s collection which was based in shades of black, orange, blue, pink and yellow. The cast of upcoming film ‘Chalawa’ showstopped for the designer that included Wajahat Rauf, Mehwish Hayat, Azfar Rehman, Asad Siddiqui and Zara Noor Abbas.

NATASHA KAMAL — the designer displayed her Lilium collection that consisted of pink maxis, light embellishments and embroidery, long sleeveless shirts with cigarette pants, chiffon, organza and satins, jackets paired with maxis in hues of lilac and culottes with off shoulder tops. Skirts, blouses and plain jumpsuits defined Natasha Kamal’s collection. But did the designer go over the top with too much western wear? You decide.

KHAADI — Khaadi displayed their Gypsy collection that featured beautiful elaborate floral embroideries, heavily embellished wrap dresses, black crop tops, angrakhas and with pink and green floral jackets. Short yellow Anarkali dresses, peplum tops and harem pants are already on our to-buy list.

JAZIB QAMAR — the designer showcased his Kashmakash collection of white cotton shalwars with matching shirts paired with overcoats and brooches. Frill shirts, beige pants and golden coats were some of the items on display. From what we gathered, perhaps the designer wanted to put forth the message of pest control and wildlife conservation, owing to the insects and animal prints. Actor Feroze Khan showstopped for the designer.

SANA SAFINAZ — the designer duo’s Dynasty collection ended Day 3 with a lot of one-tone outfits, back slit off shoulder tops with pants, knee-length satin maxis, puffy sleeves, shades such as neon yellows, pinks, mauve, green and tasselled borders were the highlights.
