Kitschy kaftans

WHO: Sabina Pasha
WHAT:  Body Focus Museum
WHERE: TRC/Ensemble show 2009

Low-key designer Iman Ahmed has been one of Karachi's best-kept secrets for years now. Fashionistas have long flocked to her studio – the Body Focus Museum – to get their hands on Iman's creations. Now that she stocks at The Boulevard in Lahore, her cutting-edge and fashion forward designs have begun to gain the much-needed recognition they deserve. Here, Sabina Pasha models a creation by Iman at the TRC/Ensemble show this summer.
