Speaking about COCO, Zara Shahjahan the Creative Head said, “The aim for COCO is to change how we look at high street fashion in Pakistan. We want the clothes to be hip, smart and wearable. We want the buyer to feel as good buying COCO as they would feel buying a luxury brand. We will follow trends of local and international catwalks.
With fashion weeks becoming bigger and better in Pakistan, we feel our masses are getting smarter when it comes to fashion. There is a lot of good competition here but we are not just another brand in so many. We want to be the best high-street brand in Pakistan”.
COCO is a subsidiary of Fast Retail Apparel, a holding company which also manages premier designer label Zara Shahjahan and upcoming brands MEN Co. and COCO Home.
