Model Zara Abid remembered by friends, colleagues on her first death anniversary
On the first death anniversary of Pakistani model Zara Abid, her friends and fellow showbiz colleagues including, Ayesha Omar, Neelam Muneer, Sadaf Kanwal, Nomi Ansari, Fouzia Aman, Tabesh Khoja, Zara Noor Abbas and Hira Mani remembered her and paid emotional tributes.
Zara was one of the passengers on the ill-fated Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) flight PK 8303 which crashed in Karachi on May 22, 2020, killing at least 97 people.

A bare-branched champa tree held court at the centre of the open-air catwalk. Live jazz music played out. The evenings were balmy, teetering towards Karachi’s tropical summer, the cold winter winds long gone. It was quite the apt setting for a fashion week dedicated to spring/summer trends.
But notwithstanding the elegant surroundings and even Mother Nature pitching in with the right weather, the trends were missing at the spring/summer edition of Fashion Pakistan Week (FPW). A small smattering of collections were inspiring while the rest droned on, usually in a cloud of pastel-coloured bling and, sometimes, downsliding towards the terribly gaudy.
FPW 2021 Day 2: Another round of Bridal Couture Week
Second day witnessed all seven designers showcasing more bridal wear than haute couture
KARACHI:
The New Year commenced with Chanel taking over the ramp with its signature spring/summer styles, and other brands such as Fendi, Zimmermann, Valentino and Dior following suit. As the Western hemisphere attempted a return to pre-pandemic fashion shows, so did we. Fashion Pakistan Week (FPW) Spring/Summer 2021 took place over the weekend, with seven designers showcasing their latest on day one and day two each. There was glitz, there was glamour - albeit, with SOPs in tow. But the pieces displayed fell short.
