Do the Catwalk!

So who is the Ramp Queen of Pakistan? We look through some of the best nominations for the title.

First up, Amina Haq. Amina Haq, despite being only 5feet 7inches, has been known to be quite a stunner on the ramp and not just because of her looks. Amina Haq was noticed by the French Vogue partly because of her looks but also mostly because of her sexy cat walk. Amina Haq, in Paris, showcased various outfits for Neelofer Shahid and with each outfit her catwalk changed to suit the look of the outfit. Her versatility is known throughout the fashion industry. Amongst her co-models, Iffat Omar commented that despite being of a short height (for the fashion world standards) Amina Haq used to turn the most heads internationally.


Second we have Iraj Mansoor, Iraj is known for her catwalk is it is her sexy walk that has still kept her alive on the ramps. It is said that you can give Iraj any type of a dress with any type of shoes and make her walk on any surface you please and this woman will give you the sexiest walk you have ever seen. Iraj not just walks she literally glides with elegance on the runway. She can also be quite fierce when needed and was employed by Levis Jeans several times to walk in their sexy jeans. Iraj Mansoor has also been called back several times to Singapore for ramp Fashion shows in which she walked for several famous designers. Her co-models rate her catwalk as a 10/10.

Nadia Hussain who is known for height delivers more than just a tall figure on a ramp. The ramp is not just about how you walk but also about how you pose at the end. A model has to strike atleast three poses at the end of the ramp and they must be done quickly but not too quickly and they must be done with elegance. Many models unfortunately can walk the walk but cannot pose. Their poses are too quick or too jerky and they end up looking bad. Nadia Hussain is known to pose very elegantly. She carries herself well and when she reaches the end of the line, he can strike a mean pose.

Though not as experienced as the other ladies in the category, Suneeta Marshall is very well respected for her ramp appearance. According to her co-models, which includes Natasha Hussain, Rubya Chaudhry, and Rachael Gill, Suneeta has the most elegance. According to them, no matter how chaotic things are backstage, once Suneeta hits the ramps, she is as collected and elegant as anyone can be. Not only that, Suneeta is in full model mode when she is on the ramp. From her eyebrows to the nail on her pinky is modeling and giving it all she's got.


So in the end who is the ramp queen? That may be a debatable topic but credit needs to be given where due. Iraj Mansoor is without a doubt the Ramp Diva. She has walked every single type of runway you can imagine. Most models, as the show continues, start to appear tired and the smile from their face begins to fade, but Iraj starts out with a bang and ends with a even bigger bang. Her stomps are stompy and her are sways are swayee as she sashays down a long runway with a look in her eyes that says... FIERCE!

  2. Iman Ali is not known for her catwalk. She is known for her print modeling. These models mentioned above are the true champions of the ramp. Even Vaneeza, who is a super model, is not known for her catwalk, she too, like Iman, is known for her modeling. Thats doesnt mean they dont have good catwalks, it just means they have more talent in print.

  9. @ Anonymous: These models are super models and thus far no one has been able to replace them. There is not a single model in the industry who is better than them.
