About Seema Khan:

Fashion has always been designer Seema Khan’s first love, after a hiatus of three long years she is back on the fashion circuit with a new collection of westerns and Indian wear, as one of the founder associates of the new fashion and lifestyle hotspot Bandra 190.

Designer Seema Khan showcases panache and a vast versitality   in her creations.  Endowed with great aesthetic instincts, she can draw inspiration from seemingly mundane things as well.  She never received any formal training; hence art, nature, jewellery and even people are learning sources for her. Her stint at a young age at her father’s garment export business did help her in understanding the commercial side of the industry.  With her participation in select exhibitions, fashion weeks, styling for celebs and shows she gathered an enviable client list.

She is an eternal favorite amongst prominent personalities such as Malaika Arora Khan, Amrita Arora and Sonakshi Sinha etc.  A versatile woman unafraid to experiment can relate to Seema’s designs. Seema Khan had designed for  Gauri Khan, Neelam Kothari, Rhea Pillai, Sussanne Roshan, Preity Zinta etc. to name a few in the past, as well as  Elli Avram, Bhavana Pandey, Maheep Kapoor and many more.

 During the break, Seema enhanced her technical design skills. She learnt the ropes of production management, understood the importance of observing discipline and managing logistics. Her designs have now grown with her. The years of experience and exposure have brought about a significant change in her designs.  Her style is trendy and elegant, classic yet contemporary, fun yet fashionable and feminine.

 Poised to make a comeback with a fabulous collection Seema hopes to wow the new age woman to enhance her style quotient.

To sum it all up, Seema says, "It's all about your flair for design. You either have it or you don't."
