Sparking Through Summer

By Saba Hamid

         Newsline handpicks five designers from Karachi and Lahore to make you sparkle through hot summer nights.

           There's Shehla Rehman of Unbeatable who is inspired by anything and everything - a beautiful bird can inspire a colourful and dramatic outfit. Then there's Mahjabeen, whose flowing, mint ensemble reflects her philosophy:'simple, elegant, flowing and affordable.' Ahsan Hussain, meanwhile, creates traditional ensembles with a funky twist. He is fascinated by vibrant colours and inspiration can come from the most mundane activities. Who'd have thought jogging would inspire one to sculpt clothing? Then there's Saadia Mirza who has the capacity to turn traditional into haute moderne. Finally, there are the women from Details who have a store in Lahore and want to branch out in Karachi with their motto ' feminine, attractive and wearable.'

           So who's going to be your new best sartorial friend this summer?
