How did you become a designer?
I started designing clothes when I was 18. All throughout my upbringing in Lahore, my family always had custom-tailored clothing made out of the finest quality fabrics. I carry on that tradition with Guru. My first exhibitions were in Lahore, NY and Delhi when I was 18. I emigrated to New York when I was 23, took classes at FIT, and went on to work in various roles in New York's fashion scene, from modeling to merchandising and management. I even explored my other passion—culinary arts and obtained a degree in French cuisine and restaurant management from ICE!
What’s your inspiration?
My inspiration is my upbringing in Lahore, my organic, eco-friendly way of life.
What’s your hometown?
Originally Lahore, Pakistan, now New York, NY
If you had to pick a favorite design from your collection, what would it be?
The Oatmeal Tunic because it is the linen used here is the natural un-dyed color of linen, and because the color combination reminds me most of my father's color sensibility. He is an extremely handsome man with an impeccable sense of color and coordination.
What are you wearing right now?
Beige tunic and jeans.
