About Sehar
Patricia Sehar Peerzada creates clothing influenced by traditional sources in Africa, Asia, Native America, and Europe. She often uses natural fibers which she hand prints using the ancient art of block printing which she learned studying traditional arts in Pakistan. Controlling the placement, intensity, and content of the prints in her limited edition separates and ensembles, makes each piece a wearable art treasure. Concentrating on the drape and fall of the fabric, Sehar flatters the figure of all types of women with her simple, unique shapes.
Peerzada's work has been carried in Nordstrom, Toast and Strawberries, Origins, C'Est La Vie, Metamorphosis, Sankofa, Zawadi, and many other boutiques. Her lines, Urban Masala and Saharah, have been featured in magazines, books, and fashion blogs such as Ebony, Heart and Soul, the Washington Post, Dubai Times, Pakistani Glamour, Today's Black Woman, "Threads of Time: The Fabric of History," Essence Online, Guyana Fete BHF Network, CIAA Africa, and many more. Her work has been worn by Sweet Honey In The Rock, Aretha Franklin, T'Keyah Crystal Kemah, Danny Glover, and others.
