About Mahgul for Nasreen Shaikh:
The seasoned Lahore based fashion house, Nasreen Shaikh, launched brand new label ‘Mahgul for Nasreen Shaikh’, which made its runway debut at PFDC Sunsilk Fashion Week 2013 in the emerging/new talent, multi designer showcase.
Indeed Nasreen Shaikh has been designing exclusive bridal and formal wear for almost two decades, with the label having come to be synonymous with understated elegance. With Mahgul for Nasreen Shaikh, the couturier introduces a new generation of talent through her granddaughter Mahgul Rashid, as the new line’s creative director. Mahgul, a fine artist having worked with Rashid Rana, has been apprenticing with Nasreen Shaikh for the better part of 6 years and the new eponymous brand, Mahgul for Nasreen Shaikh, encapsulates Mahgul’s contemporary aesthetic of promoting modern simplicity, within an accessible ready to wear and bespoke label.
Mahgul for Nasreen Shaikh’s first retail collection as showcased at PFDC Sunsilk Fashion Week was titled ‘The Archive Collection’, where the designer found inspiration in old photographs from the Civil and Military Gazette to create pieces that attempt to re-invent a traditional aesthetic sensibility in a more modern context. Since the brands debut, Mahgul for Nasreen Shaikh has introduced a line of bespoke and ready to wear clutches as worn by Academy Award Winner Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy to Beyonce’s Sound of Change concert where she was representing Pakistan as well as by Pakistani media personalities Meesha Shafi, Zara Peerzada and Ayesha Omar and international filmmaker Mira Nair. The brand has also since created a line of bespoke jeans, exhibited in Karachi, released a mid-summer/Eid collection and now debuts a luxury line with ‘The Timur Collection’.
