Being caged in our homes for months on end, we all have been craving to go back to live life as it was and most of all dressing up and looking our best. Now, that we are finally stepping out, why not do it in style. Compared to the neutral looks of the past year, the upcoming year is guaranteed to showcase fresher and bolder looks. Stylish, innovative and easy to pull off, you too can look the part. Get a little adventurous with your outfit choices and opt for bright and vibrant colours. Don’t hold back on your makeup either and go for that smokey eye look. Go all out with your hair and turn it into an effortless sleek back look. Taking style inspiration from the recently held Fashion Pakistan Winter Gala in Karachi, You! is here to help you up your fashion and makeup game…

This eye-catching outfit perfectly captured the essence of the collections theme ‘New Dawn’ by Zaaviay. Completing the look with a statement head piece, and a matching choker, the glistening golden gown, with sequined details, brought accessible luxury wear for women to the ramp.

The couture collection by Zaaviay showcased seamless transitions of nature. It is encapsulated in this ensemble, a depiction of a starry night, giving off mystic and glamorous vibes. A perfect choice for an evening formal.

A soft makeup, with bold smokey eyes and a sleek ‘wet’ hair look pairs well with any outfit and adds oomph. A dewy base is the secret to pull off this look; brush your highlighter to all the high points of your face and the inner corner of your eyes. In this case, the look complements Arizai by Atiya Khan flowy white tunic flawlessly.

Aamna Aqeel and Bakhtawar Memon brought back funk and fashion to the runway with a ruffled high-neck and statement sleeves. This outfit is classy and makes a bold statement at the same time.

For this fuchsia ensemble, Aamna and Bakhtawar accentuate their lively collection with exaggerated details that complements model Mushk Kaleem, paired with slick hair let down and smokey eyes.

This crisp cotton number in muted tones stood out for sheer ingenuity and urban appeal put together by Hina Mirza. Styled with a colourful belt around the waist with the fabric tucking in and army camp boots, the look defines youthful rebellion.

A white flowy kaftan layered with a pearl and stones necklace adorning the model, captured spiritual fashion put forward by Arizai by Atiya Khan. The standout was the intricately embroidered emerald motif below a narrow plunging neckline.

This truck art inspired sari exhibits freshness and vivacity. The look was perfectly paired with a sleeveless smartly crafted top. For accessories, the chic blushed-toned bag stands out on top of this colourful attire. The look was a collaboration of Maheen Khan x Jafferjees.

With edgy and simplistic cuts, a solid pastel look with a button-down shirt defines Maheen Khan’s tell-tale signature look, coupling elegance and style with comfort. A rich brick red Jafferjees handbag adds a splash of colour to the outfit.
