    5. Amir Adnan

Amir-Adnan-on-640x4801990 saw the evolution of men’s fashion in Pakistan when Amir Adnan, a business graduate by profession, stepped out to realize his own individual style, at the same time translating it to the demands of a frustrated market. The need for a simple necktie took him to Italy where he trained and returned with an ingenious approach to reconstructing this basic accessory. Suddenly ties were no longer boring or stereotyped; the image metamorphosizing from the severity of formalwear to the emancipation of the modern day man. The new image of the tie spoke for a new era of menswear in Pakistan.

Packed with insatiable desire to design, Amir Adnan was charged with an energy to revolutionize mind sets and stimulate the senses of the modern eastern man. In 1992 he designed his first range of italic jeans, conventional denims block printed with a hint of ethnicity, and launched them in America. The juxtaposition of two seemingly heterogeneous cultures set the international market on fire, giving Adnan his cue to venture up the same path. This path, relatively unknown at that time, had taken him from strength to strength to the international fame which he has achieved today.

So these are the top 5 Pakistani Fashion Designers who have revolutionized the fashion segment in Pakistan and proven to be the Fairy God Mother to us fashionistas!
