'Zara Abid embraced her dark-skin, she fought for it'

It’s been a week since the ill-fated PK 8303 crashed in a residential area of Karachi just a minute before landing. The Karachi bound flight had 99 passengers and 8 cabin crew members.

97 passengers passed away in the fateful incident. One of them was model Zara Abid. Soon after the news broke, condolences for the 28-year-old model poured in as the fashion fraternity lost an integral part of the industry.

Many took to social media and celebrated her life and career. Former supermodel and the PR mogul, Frieha Altaf remembered Zara as someone “who was very well-mannered and very polite.”

In a recent interview with BBC Asian Network, Altaf shared, “She took direction very well whenever I have worked with her on fashion weeks. She was an excellent model.”
