NEW YORK: Pakistan’s resident starlet Ayesha Omar is living every girl’s dream! Not only is she attending the much coveted New York Fashion Week, she is also rubbing shoulders with the who’s who in the world of fashion.
Ayesha, who is representing Maybelline New York, at the fashion week sported a beautiful, shimmery, black jumpsuit by Lebanese-American designer Rami Kadi at the press party where she hung out and chilled with supermodel Gigi Hadid among others.
Ayesha shared pictures from the event on her Instagram account and called Gigi “an absolute stunner.”
Omar also had “great fun chatting with Emily Didonato backstage”, adding that “she [Didonato] sends her love to Pakistan, that too in Urdu!”
She also shared a picture with Jourdan Dunn who “was so tall that she had to sit down and chat…she didn’t want me getting a neck strain. And what a beauty! Ufffff.”
Ayesha is truly living up to what we call the New York dream. But amidst all the fanfare and excitement, Ayesha also took a moment to remember the late actor Qazi Wajid. Omar wrote that the news of his death “made my heart stop for a second, shook me up and made me come right back to reality, the reality of the fragility and preciousness of life.”
She remembered him as being “jolly, comical, and spreading love and his amazing energy, along cracking some witty jokes and finding humour in every moment.”
Lastly, she thanked “Qazi Sahab for all that you added to my life, in all the ways you made it better, for all that we learnt from you and all that you have left behind. You went too soon…but you live in our hearts forever…RIP and May Allah bless your soul.”
