Looking to celebrate freedom in style this year? Pakistan’s leading retail brand, Sapphire just played their part by releasing a patriotic capsule collection called “Hommage”, an ode to Independence Day and we are thrilled.
“Hommage” is an artistic representation that has been showcased through fashion so women can reflect on their identity as Pakistanis. The collection speaks of Pakistan’s history and culture; displayed in the form of 5 distinct kurtas. Each design and print embody different elements that are unique to our beloved homeland. The shirts are modern and contemporary keeping in mind the current style trends; varying from box to A-line to simple straight shirts and long sleeves. We simply love the play of colours in this collection. Not your usual green and white collection; “Hommage” can be worn all year round.
Furthermore, as Pakistanis, you can also play your part by going an extra mile. Sapphire has partnered with Akhuwat Foundation – an interest-free microfinancing organization. Every kurta you buy from this collection, a tree will be planted in your name at Akhuwat University, Pakistan’s very first “No-Fee University”.
