All about Fashion
Day One of the two-day Fashion Pakistan Week (FPW) 5 on Tuesday evening seemed to drag on for longer than the actual four hours, owing largely to unexciting collections. Besides the arrival of Labels’ shop-the-runway online, there were no international buyers present at the show, which meant that the designs … Read more

Fashion Pakistan Council has announced dates for Fashion Pakistan Week 5 aka FPW5. The event will now be a two day extravaganza, scheduled to take place on the 9th and 10thof April 2013 in Karachi.
It is a bit odd to name the event week when it is just for two days but quality is what matters not quantity. Hope to see some great stuff from participating designers on the ramp. For the first time, there will be Lawn collections on the ramp too (though I have my reservations on it but it shows the power of Lawn)
13 designers will showcase on each day of the event unlike 6-8 in earlier editions of FPW. Assume to allocate half an hour to every collection & the show will be of 6+ hours. Lets see how the decision to shorten the time period of the event and extending the designer lineup turns out.
Fashion Pakistan is collaborating for the first time with 360 labels e store, collections will be uploaded in two hours of launch.

All of us have been through this time and time again. Last year when I started this blog in Fall 2012 it was mostly because I was enraged by the sheer amount of design plagiarism in the fashion and apparel industry. I reached out to the high and mighty in the fashion and journalism front but sadly every one stayed hush hush so they mayn’t be ruffling someone’s feathers the wrong way. I started with a piece about Curious case of copies in fashion and sadly I have never run out of content.
This year it has been no different the lawn market seems quite fertile and lush everywhere. I have been privileged enough to attend 4 launch ceremonies but I refrained from writing much about them because I don’t really know a lot about the design sensibilities of the consumer or about the fabric to begin with. Just few days back a friend of mine whatsapped me a photo, it left me awestruck. You guessed it right. It was a design rip off yet again! and that also by renowned designer duo Sana Safinaz lawn collection 2013. In 2012 the brand copied a design by Emilo Pucci that too in same color combination & there was a controversy over Sana Safinaz TVC and billboards showing Louis Vuitton bags & coolies.
Sana Safinaz Spring Summer 2013 Lawn collection has been launched Nationwide from 18th March. The stunning TVC of the brand was shot by Guddu & shani featuring background music by Shahi while model Neha Ahmed flaunts the collection. Designer Duo emphasizes on bringing back the trend of short shirts. Though the … Read more
