Talk of the town: Who're you wearing?

Samrin Hassan

Samrin Hassan, the lead designer of the namesake brand, started her journey with small and sweet steps for the most inspirational lady in her life: Her mother. This virtual fashion powerhouse started with a heart to “make (her) mother proud”. This designer believes in bringing about affordable and comfortable fashion pieces for women of all ages and sizes. Her zardozi work on velvets and double georgette in bold colours has taken the internet by storm. Being a marketing student herself, Samrin knows how to focus on strategies to get her brand across to the right damsels in fashion distress. With her talent and the support of her partner, Nazmina Bhuiyan, Samrin has caught the eye of quite a big crowd.

The brand she launched during this god-forsaken pandemic does not compromise on quality, but at the same time understands that affordability is a priority. This classic chic queen says being her own boss is a different high. She dreams to slowly pan out our styles from our stylish neighbours to our homegrown heritage and fashion.
