The World Fashion Organization has been established to ‘increase participation in world fashion and to integrate Pakistan on the world fashion arena.” said Paco de Jaimes, the founder of the organization, who saw Pakistan’s inclusion as an effort at “building global bridges of understanding across nations”.
The main mission of the World Fashion Organization is to abolish poverty and use fashion as a tool for development and peace. The World Fashion Week will take place in New York in 2012 where one Pakistani designer will participate with designers from all over the globe.
The chosen designer will be selected by stylist Tariq Amin, the creative head behind Islamabad Fashion Week.
The enthusiastic Tariq said, “I will be monitoring who gets to go to the World Fashion Week. This is just the beginning and we will put Pakistan and Islamabad in the world of fashion.”
