Renowned Pakistani designer Faraz Manan says Bollywood diva Kareena Kapoor, who is the brand ambassador of his lawn collection, is fond of his royal ethnic attires and even dons them at certain occasions.
Kareena, 33, is the face of his latest Crescent Lawn Collection, which consists of digital lawn floral prints with embellished necklines presenting an embroidered look to the outfits.
"Kareena likes it (my collection). She wears it at home also. She is someone who really needs to like something before wearing it. She is currently like a modern Nawab. She is married to a nawab and it's all about a whole new approach. I like designing for Nawabi culture," Faraz, who was in the capital for M B Jewellers and Sons fashion show, told PTI.
"Nawabs play polo and sort of have a modern approach to life. So my collection favours that. Kareena is not just famous here. People know her in Pakistan and Dubai. So it's good," he added.
Faraz, who is popular in Pakistan for his couture, bridal wear, luxury pret, and lawn, has been a frequent visitor to the country as Kareens's elder sister Karisma Kapoor was his campaign's brand ambassador for three years.
"I have been here (India) before. I come here to visit my friends and also for my campaigns. I do my shoots sometimes in Jaipur, Bombay and Delhi. The appreciation we get every time we come here is great," he said.
Apart from the Kapoor sisters, 'Aashiqui 2' star Aditya Roy Kapoor too has been associated with his collection, having walked the ramp as the showstopper for his formal couture designs last year.
