Designer Spotlight: Naeem Khan

by Aditi Mehta – Houston, TX

Naeem Khan’s gorgeous designs have graced the likes of Beyonce, Michelle Obama, and Carrie Underwood (to name a few of the rockin’ women who have embraced Khan’s dresses). Saying his gowns are gorgeous seems like an understatement.

Khan grew up in India where he worked closely with this grandfather and father in the textile industry. According to Khan’s website, his father and grandfather were both well known in India for designing and dressing royal families.

Khan’s designs usually include bright fabrics with intricate embroidery, a unique and beautiful way to incorporate his background into his designs.  His designs are handcrafted and can take weeks to complete. During the Obama Administration’s state dinner for the Indian Prime Minister and his wife, Michelle Obama wore a jaw dropping Khan design. The dress itself took over 40 people and 3 weeks to make!
