By Dimple Sanghani

This week women all over the world will be putting on their finest designer clothes to celebrate Eid. That is why top fashion designers have been unveiling their Eid collections in recent weeks and three of the most eye-catching ones emerged out of Pakistan. Here is a look at ZILL Eid Collection, which has been created by ORO by Mahgul, The Summer Bloom by Sania Maskatiya and a collection by design duo Saira Shakira.


Talented duo Saira Faisal and Shakira Usman came together in 2012 to form self-titled brand Saira Shakira. Since then the big-thinking brand has made a name for itself in Pakistani fashion with eye-catching designs that have a global sensibility.

The latest Eid collection from the Saira Shakira design house show- cases a diverse range of distinctive ensembles with asymmetrical cuts based largely on summer-friendly fabrics, such as organza, chiffon and cotton net. The collection uses pas- tel shades and floral embroideries to celebrate summer and Eid. There is everything from basic to luxury designs, at different price ranges.

Speaking about their Eid collection, the designer duo said: “Eid is a time of celebration and that is exactly what our latest collection is all about. In this, we celebrate woman- hood and individual style through our diverse range of designs. We have created each outfit with meticulous attention to detail that reflects the true essence of a Saira Shakira woman.”
