Pakistan Fashion Design Council (PFDC) which is currently hosting the eighth edition of Sunsilk Fashion Week in Lahore is paving way to expand their PFDC – The Boulevard franchise in India through the online medium, but seeking offer to come from India, said Sehyr Saigol, the chairperson of the fashion council.
At present, there is just one PFDC-The Boulevard outlet in India located in New Delhi, which opened in 2012, it provides the perfect medium for local designers to present the Pakistani aesthetic to Indian fashionistas.
