Sonam wears Sania Maskatiya on Cosmo cover
Fashionista features in Cosmopolitan India’s latest issue in a piece from designer’s Sakura collection.
LAHORE:
Pakistani design house Sania Maskatiya has been gaining ground across the border. After a successful debut show at Lakme Fashion Week earlier this year, the brand achieved another feat, as fashionista Sonam Kapoor was featured on the cover of Cosmopolitan India’s latest issue.
“We are enthralled to see Kapoor wearing a piece from our ‘Sakura’ collection on the cover of Cosmopolitan India’s October issue,” says Maskatiya. “The process began when we were invited to showcase a collection at Lakme Fashion Week, where we showcased the collection,” she adds.
Kapoor sports a printed cropped bustier with an aplomb structured skirt in the cover photo. “During our stay in India, we met lots of Indian designers and journalists, who appreciated and showed interest in our collection,” she shares. “But the most exciting part was when we received an email from Cosmopolitan magazine, asking for three looks from our collection to be featured in their birthday special issue.”
Expressing her surprise at the selection, she says she had no idea that the looks she sent would even be featured in the issue, let alone on its cover. “I’m more than excited to see Kapoor wearing our collection. Sonam is coincidentally the perfect embodiment of our brand. We are fun, quirky and known for our love for pairing separates, and that’s quintessential Sonam Kapoor,” comments Maskatiya.
