Philosophy
Shafaque, derived from the meaning "dawn" or "first light," is not only a name but a profound reflection of our brand's essence and transformative journey. Just as the dawn signifies the beginning of a new day, Shafaque Ali founded our artisan Pret label with a vision to illuminate a path towards environmentally conscientious fashion practices and holistic well-being.
Our design philosophy thrives on connection—the fusion of individuals, cultures, and creativity. Through meticulously crafted garments by talented artisans, we celebrate diversity and empower personal expression. Our mission extends beyond aesthetics; it encompasses every facet of life.
Fashion possesses the extraordinary ability to ignite change, and we are committed to preserving indigenous cultures, safeguarding their heritage, and uplifting artisans' livelihoods. By partnering with skilled craftsmen, we establish a sustainable platform that empowers communities and nurtures their artistic talents.
Embrace sustainable luxury fashion and join our mission towards regenerative practices.
