    Designer Maheen Khan reveals how she crafted the late Benazir Bhutto’s iconic look

    On Sunday, Madam Tussaud’s unveiled the wax statue of the first female prime minister of Pakistan and the Muslim world, Benazir Bhutto, in Dubai. Her son, Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto was present at the occasion.

    Fashion designer Maheen Khan, who crafted the iconic look Benazir Bhutto wore when she was sworn in as the first woman prime minister of the country in November 1988, has shared a heart warming story on her Instagram page about how she and Bhutto crafted the look together.

    Maheen received a call from the Benazir Bhutto in November 1998, after she had won the elections and needed to design a look in green to wear for the swearing-in ceremony.

    “It was some time In November 1988 that I got a call from Benazir Bhutto. She had just had Bilawal and she had won the elections!
    She was to be Pakistans first Prime minister.
    I immediately rushed to Bilawal House .
    She needed something green to wear to her swearing in ceremony.
    I convinced her to wear a white dupatta , which I got her .
    I decided immediately that chiffon wouldn’t do so I got her a soft muslin which would drape well .
    Years later she rang to say she had given the outfit to Madame Toussards .”The Maheen label is still on it ” she said
    The white dupatta has since become the signature of every female politician.
    Magical memories of an amazing ,warm , affectionate woman .
    Rest in peace dear BB
    Innalillahe wainnaillaihe rajeoon.”

    Actor Iman Aly has clarified her remarks about head is not blowing over any time soon.

    Iman in her interview had stated that the models currently working in the industry don’t have ‘adequate general knowledge’.

    Similarly, Frieha Altaf also took to social media to criticise Iman for her comments on Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan and remarked that the model was resorting to “a cheap publicity stunt as she has a movie coming up.”

    Iman, in the interview, had claimed that Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees had first been offered to her. She further said: “90% of the movies made in Pakistan today are still offered to me first. But I only take the scripts I fall in love with. If I don’t like the lines, it feels like work, like slavery.”

    In another segment, Iman had remarked Humayun Saeed would be a “doodh dahi bechnay wala” (dairy product salesman) if he was not an actor. She also labelled Fawad Khan as a “failed standup comedian” and Mehwish Hayat a “cosmetologist’s assistant.” She also said that Mahira should have stayed a VJ.
