PM Imran Khan didn't wear designer shalwar kameez on US trip

According to a PTI leader, the first lady bought all the cloth and had it stitched from a local tailor

During his three day visit to the US, PM Imran Khan was seen wearing the traditional Shalwar Kameez with a waistcoat. And of course, his decision to ditch the suit and wear Pakistan's national dress was lauded by many.

According to PTI leader Sayed Zulfi Bukhari, the dresses Khan wore to the recent international trip were all local made and not designers. "The PM has never been interested in designers or worn them. Especially for his simple shalwar kameez," he tweeted.

The PM has never been interested in designers or worn them. Especially for his simple shalwar kameez. The First Lady bought all the cloth and got it stitched from a simple local tailor. Which ever designer is trying to claim credit for it is not only a liar but a cheat.

"The First Lady bought all the cloth and got it stitched from a simple local tailor. Which ever designer is trying to claim credit for it is not only a liar but a cheat."

Khan also decided to save public money worth over Rs100 million, as he took commercial flights for the US trip and scrapped practices of former premiers of engaging at least two long-haul jets.
