The lovely Vaneeza Ahmed and the fashion guru Deepak Perwani shone in Tonight with HSY with their views about their development as artists, acting and of course, fashion. The friendship of the trio was evident as they relived their youth and related to how their work has transformed them.
Vaneeza Ahmed, or the famous “Vinny” is one of the most celebrated models in the Pakistani Fashion scene. She has been an actor not only for television, but has also impressed with her acting skills in the hugely popular documentary Jinnah.
In a candid interview with HSY, Vaneeza said that after doing so many things, she would now want to start an outlet of ready-to-wear casual clothes.
“I have tried everything and I enjoyed it all very much. I have been running my brand [for lawn prints] for nine years. Now we have decided that we will open an outlet of ready-to-wear, casual clothes.”
“I am not a designer. I am a business person,” said Vaneeza. “I take my inspiration from other cultures, it does not come to me naturally, which is why I don’t call myself a designer.”
“I have a style and if people like my style, they’ll like my clothes as well.
later HSY asked Deepak why in his recent interviews had he described himself as obnoxious and insane.
“I think it’s the fact that Deepak Perwani has been in the industry for over 20 years and still goes on with the same fervour,” said Deepak.
Responding to what, other than work, makes him insane, Deepak responded: “Stupidity and time wasting makes me insane. And when people, who don’t know anything about fashion, comment on it.”
