Aalishan Pakistan Big Hit; Pak Designers Demand Friendly Rules


"If I plan to open a store here, I will need an Indian partner and I think the share is around 66 percent and 33 percent. I wouldn't get into something like that because 33 percent is hardly a share," said Adnan.

Deepak Perwani, a member of FPC, gave a thumbs up to "cross cultural exchange", but added: "It's about time India got to know what Pakistan fashion is all about and vice versa. Politics will be politics, but that shouldn't change what people think of each other."

FPC has 55 designers as its members and they want to showcase more in India, but need support.

"We do plan to showcase in India or do a collaborative Pakistan-India fashion week. It has started. Sania Maskatiya was one of the Pakistani designers who showcased at the Lakme Fashion Week in August," said Saleem.

So far Lala Textiles of Lahore has participated in around 8 to 10 exhibitions in India.
