Hotstepper
of the week
Bunto Kazmi
|
| |
She's been
the talk of the town every shaadi season for the longest time
and has historically shied away from both publicity and photo
shoots. And now she's taking that big step forward towards stocking
at a store (Ensemble) and showing her creations on the ramp
and the showing tomorrow. That Bunto Kazmi, one of Pakistan's
most iconic designers, is getting ready for prêt augurs
well for the future. It will mean that the quality will go up.
The quality of work that senior designer are capable of producing
remains largely unmatched by the newer ones. The embellishment
is finer, the work more intricate. Most newer designers are
looking for shortcuts and when they do that, they often lose
the craftsmanship that has long been the hallmark of a jora.
So here's to the old guard seeking to make a new place for themselves
in the rising sun of prêt. |

Hats off to Bunto Kazmi, the most elusive designer on our fashion
scene for having the courage to reinterpret tradition and step out
on to the catwalk. This is doing to be one hot step, and we are
dying to see it.
