Shameel
Starting with a bang her debut held at Cafe Royale in London for an Imran Khan Benefit evening in August 1987. And there was no looking back. Shamaeel has to her credit some of the most exotic solo shows held to date in Pakistan. Packaged complete with ensembles, sound and light effects and staged at historical venues such as the Hindu Gymkhana, Ismaili Gymkhana in Karachi and the un-paralleled Orient Express held at the Karachi city station. Her international showings include solo shows in New York, Washington D.C., London, Dubai, Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Bahrain, Rome and Delhi. Shamaeel took a bow out of the fashion industry to work in fashion capital of the Americas, New York. This time working as buyer for US based customers, such as Donna Karen Home, Club Monaco, Eddie Bauer, Vonducth Akademiks, procuring textiles from Pakistan and India. Apart from this she has regularly supplied bed linen companies such as Bed Bath and Beyond, Target Stores USA, Wal-Mart and Disney licensee’s. In 2007 Shamaeel returned to her first love - fashion designing. Geared with international experience of a trained buyer’s eye, she takes centre stage. Today she is supplying couture and prêt lines to the UAE, UK, USA, India and Pakistan. Shamaeel will also re-open her “Shamaeel Fabric” nationwide for mass apparel in 2010.
