August issue 2004

From Prague to Peshawar, Dubai to Delhi and Greece to London, the HSY brand has travelled the globe and woven a spell on fashion aficionados the world over. It is easy to see why this young designer from Lahore works magic with his creations. While timeless elegance remains the hallmark of this collection, HSY breaks away from his traditional minimalist philosophy to embrace the world of subtle richness and forgotten splendour. The motifs are ornate and inspired by the Ottoman Empire; though the colours are soft, the embroideries are intricate and worked in silk thread, sequins and Swarovski. It is an opulent collection with the inimitable HSY touch.
