Aafrinish by Niazi, a clothing label, in its very essence is all about the classics. The fabrics, embellishment techniques, even the kind of thread used for embroideries, remain true to the brand’s endeavor to preserve tradition, and always provide the kind of quality the designers associate with this region and its craft.

To that end, Aafrinish by Niazi presents a short film, highlighting the journey of classical kathak dance in Pakistan, the connection of the art form to our roots, and how representative it is of subcontinental storytelling.

The film features Suhaee Abro, an accomplished dancer from Pakistan, as we see her grow through her journey through her craft. The full film is worth the view, as are the designs featured in it, provided by Aafrinish.
