The high point of the event will be the display of work by women weavers, says an organizer as Women weavers to realize the worth of their exquisite handwork. Since most designers use hand embroidery, this will prove to be a good opportunity for these artisans to get the exposure they deserve, Nassr, who made India her second home seven years back and retails under the brand name Braahtii, said in a statement.
Das feels that with a trade potential of billions of dollars between the two countries, the event will not only offer a unique opportunity to Indian fashionistas to interact with their Pakistani counterparts, but also offer a firsthand opportunity to customers to feel and own the best quality products India and Pakistan have to offer.
The event will see the participation of different brands that deal in fashion, textiles, jewellery, accessories and furniture including some of the fashion’s celebrated names from Pakistan like HSY and Umar Sayeed.
The exhibition will also showcase the ensembles of prominent designers who will feature in the grand fashion show. On the finale day, there will be a fashion show comprising popular designers from the two countries.
