Confirmed! Here's when Mijwan Fashion Show will take place this year

It's that time of the year again, where the biggest names in films, fashion and business come together in solidarity for the annual fundraiser fashion show hosted by the Mijwan Welfare Society. Designer Manish Malhotra is all set to put up a spectacular fashion show ‘The Walk Of Mijwan’ on April 19, 2018 showcasing the exquisite craft of Chikankari by Mijwan's women, fashioned into contemporary silhouettes by Manish in his signature style.

This is the 9th annual fundraiser for Mijwan in support of the movement started by Late Kaifi Azmi in 1993. 

Noted Urdu poet and writer Kaifi Azmi founded Mijwan Welfare Society with  the goal of making Mijwan a scalable and replicable model of development with a focus on the girl child and women. In 1993 Mijwan didn't exist on the map of India. Today Mijwan is known worldwide.

Says Youth President Namrata Goyal, "The annual Mijwan Fashion Show brings the spotlight on Mijwan and gives us the means to carry on all the work behind the scenes that MWS does- We run The Kaifi Azmi School and Inter-College for girls, The Kaifi Azmi Computer Centre, The Kaifi Azmi Sewing and Embroidery Centre. 

The Sewing and Embroidery Centre started with 40 girls, today it has 400 workers spread over 10 villages in UP.”

Says Shabana Azmi , “ in the 9 years since the first Mijwan Fashion Show I have received unstinted support from my Film Fraternity. Every one from Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan to Ranveer Singh and Sidharth Malhotra and from Priyanka Chopra to Shraddha Kapoor have walked for us ."
