LG Fashion Week Toronto Fall 2010: Saniya Khan

Posted by fashionentrepreneurreport On Wednesday, March 31, 2010

Connecting with one's ancestry is the theme of Saniya Khan's FW10 collection, she who emigrated to Canada from Pakistan in 1999. Her show was indeed Eastern-inspired with batik prints and embroideries on tunic style tops and tons of velvet draped lovingly over models. White Pom poms finished the hemline on a black velvet a-line skirt and leopard prints abounded on chiffon. Not as wearable as we are used to seeing at LGFW and will appeal to those women who want to keep in touch with or dabble in Eastern influences. Luxurious with boudoir elements, loose in a sexy way, as though the models had been upstairs to "slip into something more comfortable".
