Jemima Khan To Design Capsule Collection for Azzaro

Edited by Rebecca Alexander

Jemima Khan (is an socialite who is recognized as Hugh Grant’s ex-girlfriend, the former wife of Pakistani cricketer Imran Khan, and one of late billionaire James Goldsmith’s eight children) is designing a capsule collection for French house Azzaro.

Seeing this I thought, what right does she have designing a line for French house Azzaro, but then I did some research:

Khan became is also a UK Ambassador for UNICEF, concentrated on advocacy efforts on children’s issues, especially global poverty. Khan recently launched Jemima Khan Ltd., a clothing company that employed poor Pakistani women to embroider western clothes with delicate eastern handiwork. These clothes were sold under the label of Jemima Khan Designs in London and New York at outlets such as Henri Bendel, Harrods, Browns and A la Mode. Khan stated that all profits were donated to Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital & Research Centre in Lahore. In 2001, due to cancellation of orders, the fashion label was closed.

Wondering if the capsule collection will also employ Pakistani women or profit charity organizations. Keep you all posted…
