Fashion show gives hope to fashion-deprived Srinagar

Srinagar: Amateur models showcased exquisite modern and traditional designer wears at a fashion show in Srinagar.

The participants said such programmes should be organised regularly so that they can understand fashion. "Nobody in Kashmir has much knowledge on fashion, so if such programmes are held, they would help the people get up to date knowledge on fashion and it would also provide the youth a chance to be in the fashion race. There is no platform in Srinagar so we are providing them this small platform so that they can progress in future," said Nasir Ali Khan, a Kashmiri model. The show was received with big applause from the spectators who had till date seen fashion shows only on television. "I feel it would provide a boost to our business and a chance to the youth to showcase their talent. It is an initiative that has been started and more such efforts should be made to organise more such programmes," said Showkat Sahil, a local. ANI
