Maheen Khan, Iman Ahmed of Body Focus Museum, Sana Safinaz, Umar Sayeed, Shamaeel Ansari and Deepak Perwani come together in our fashion feature this week under the Ensemble banner to display impeccable craftsmanship and their exclusive take on high fashion in a shoot by veteran Arif Mehmood who captures the essence in vintage black and white.

As the focus is not on the outfits, the mood is kept stark and painfully simple with each frame speaking volumes in an effort to promote the imagery behind each designer’s creative genius.

What you get at the end is a sensational spread that underlines the conflict of the flawlessness of the fashioned craft against the stark roughness of the rugged, element-riddled background and a gelling of the perfect with the imperfect, setting off the sheer contrast between both and elevating the designer wear to a new level of impeccable style, luxury and grandeur. — T.R.
