Samar Mehdi
Passionate about clothes, Samar Mehdi, a graduate in fashion design from Bristol University, started her own label 10 years ago. This talented young designer caters to the modern Pakistani woman: someone who is independent and has an attitude, but is not scared of flaunting her femininity. Mehdi's silhouettes are simple yet elegant, feminine yet practical. But what sets Mehdi apart from most of her contemporaries is that she keeps her prices affordable. In this interview with Newsline, the designer talks about the fashion scene in Pakistan, her evolution as a designer and her stunning oriental line created for the fashion week that never happened.
Q: Please describe your latest collection.

Pakistani Fashion Designer : HSY Hassan Sheheryar Yasin is one of Pakistan's leading fashion designers, if not the top designer, in bridal and formal wear. Hassan's HSY Studio has been a rage with young brides, and everyone attending a wedding for the last several years, but it has truly reached the frenzied ''I am not getting married without a dress from HSY'' heights in the last 2-3 years. These days, Hassan (known as Sheru to his friends) is in the US, where he has choreographed a series of fantastic fashion shows for a nonprofit, charity organization called Developments in Literacy (DIL).
