The idea is not to be reactive but to be proactive and to go ahead and get on with the business of fashion because not only does it involve just the designers but also the entire setups that the designers put up, which is tailors and embroiderers and everybody like that.\"\u003cbr/\u003e5.

So these are custom made for veiled woman to wear, they are long and trendy. I also do my own scarves, colorful veils, different styles of wearing the veil, and that''s really what my specialty is.\"\u003cbr/\u003e8. Various, catwalk show Rabia Z\u003cbr/\u003e9.

It''s actually something,. And this time around we have some buyers coming from abroad as well, buyers right now is not really something that we should bank on, it''s not necessary that any buyer is going to give an order as well but at least the buyers are getting more aware of what our fashion industry is all about and what we are capable of producing.
