Frozen in Time by Grace Moon and Azim Uddula

December 27, 2020 witnessed yet another fiery ramp-display breathe life back into the momentarily halted Dhaka fashion scenario.

Grace Moon, a world-renowned designer of Korean origin, glorified the evening at Amari, Dhaka with her unique collection of fusion wear, showcased in collaboration with the local designer store — AZ by Azim Uddula.

The enthralling show, Frozen in Time, had everything from traditional wear to Korean inspired fusion wear, and captivated the spectators through and through. The show had been brought forward by Korban Co., Ltd and ICE Today Magazine.

Grace Moon, popular for her experimental collections including a major 'play with pattern and colours,' is also globally recognised as the winner of the 'Best Designer' title at 2019 Paris Fashion Week. The super talented Moon, with so many recognitions under her belt, certainly proved her worth at the show, which was attended by fashion elites, including Bibi Russell.

Azim Uddula, renowned senior model of Dhaka, launched his ethnic wear collection AZ, in mid-2019. Within a year's time, he added western wear, including jackets and blazers, to his superb line of ethnic wear.

"I didn't expect to get so much recognition so soon," said Azim.

And right he was, because Grace Moon, on her last visit to Dhaka as the reviewer to a beauty pageant — Face of Asia, fell in love with Bangladesh, its people, its heritage, its intricate weaves and of course the local talents, which included Azim and his remarkable collection.

During this particular stopover, she decided on a collaboration and future investments, if any, based on the success of the collaborations.

According to the fashion experts of the city, the show was certainly a success. Now, only time will tell what more we can expect from the super talented duo, AZ and Grace Moon, in the future
