British-Pakistani stylist and TV personality Tan France donned a chic ensemble by Pakistani designer Mohsin Naveed Ranjha once again at the British Fashion Awards.
Tan France rose to fame after appearing in Netflix reality TV series,
Queer Eye. Later, he received more recognition in 2020 when he hosted the Netflix reality show
Next in Fashion and was a fashion expert along with British writer, television presenter, model, and fashion designer, Alexa Chung.
Keeping in mind his position as a fashion personality, Tan made a statement by wearing an Asian designer to mark that he hasn’t forgotten his Pakistani roots. He wore a customized ivory pant suit embellished with hand embroidery all over the pants and blazer. He wore a pleated white high neck under it. Tan looked uber chic in the number as he posed in front of a glistening red backdrop.
“Tonight, at the British Fashion awards, proudly wearing my fellow Pakistani, custom Mohsin Naveed Ranjha. I’ve never felt more chic,” he wrote.
“Proudly wearing Mohsin Naveed Ranjha custom creation. I’ll share pics of the incredible hand embroidery work that went in to this look tomorrow,” he posted.
This is not the first time the stylist and Pakistani designer collaborated. Earlier in November, Tan also wore a Mohsin Naveed Ranjha sherwani to a South Asian night.
Talking about this surprise collaboration, Mohsin shared how, some time ago, he noticed that some of the pictures of his outfits on Instagram were liked by Tan France and he thought it was a fake account or a fan page.
“Later on I discovered that he is the real deal, so I asked my team to get in touch with him. We connected on social media. They (Tan’s team) were very interested in working with MNR. I was amazed that Tan France knew Pakistani craft and technical details of our couture. There was a lot of conversation on his look. He wanted an Eastern look; he wears a lot of Tarun Tahiliani. We discussed for quite sometime about the look and then designed this for him,” the designer had shared.
Mohsin had shared that his label will be designing more looks for Tan France and this might be one of them.
“If I’m not wrong, we’re the first Pakistani designer to design for him. We’re designing some more looks for him too. Social media has allowed us to connect with the world; nothing is impossible anymore,” Mohsin had said.
