Who made your clothes?

Pakistan’s luxury designer Zara Shahjahan joins the Fashion Revolution, I Made Your Clothes campaign and uses her Instagram platform to honor her craftsmen behind her brand that help produce her beautiful designs:

Irshad saab - learned, technically very strong and 40 years of experience in adda work. He details your bridals, makes them look rich and beautiful. He brings joy into one of the most important days of your life.

Ms Saima - our PPC head is strict, unforgiving on quality, but yet very heartwarming.

Master Riaz - friendly, precise and extremely good at his work and yes he’s the one who makes the patterns of your beautiful bridals.

* Fashion Revolution was launched after a garment factory in Bangladesh collapsed killing over 2500 people.

I wanted to do a little feature on Krizmah bags for a long time because they are everything I love in handbags - they tell stories, illustrate a rich heritage and most importantly use women artisans on the ground to not only empower them economically but also allow them to tell their own stories through the images depicted on the bags.

“Living with otherwise limited opportunities to improve the quality of their lives, KRIZMAH allows these mothers to embroider at home, without neglecting their daily housework and responsibilities. KRIZMAH is also providing scholarships to the daughters of these women, so that they benefit from a stronger education and secure a finer future for themselves and eventually their own families.”

Krizmah roots come from a valley located in Pakistan called, Chitral. The handbags tell tales of the traditions and history of Chitral through illustrations of local customs, beliefs, folklore, and Polo, a game very much part of the culture of Chitral that is still alive in this beautiful mountain valley. Chitral is home to one of the worlds highest polo ground in the world and the people of Chitral breathe this game like others breathe football or cricket.

“Echoing the unique stories and aspirations of the hands that constructed it, each piece is an absolute original.”

This picture last week went viral on Internet in pakistan. Something which is very uncommon in our part of the world,where public display of affection is considered a taboo and is restricted. Many People joined the bandwagon and kept on trolling the romantic couple with memes and tweets. The saddest part was when I came to know about shumaila from her relative on Facebook . Who requested me to give a clarification on her behalf. The woman is suffering from a disease where she cannot walk without support and her husband took the disabled wife out on eid to show her the celebrations. Unlike many of you he might not afford a car but this does not mean you mock someone only for loving his wife. She is wheelchair bound and she can not even walk or stand . Please stop judging people and spread the message. She might be handicap but she is definitely the luckiest girl to have such a loving husband. Respect for the gentleman.

Dr. Abdus Salam should be in your Pakistan minimalistic posters, the first Pakistani and Muslim noble prize winner for his work in physics.

Yes, I agree and I’m familiar with his work but the posters weren’t made by us. The source is linked in the post.
