Zainab Salman’s upcoming campaign, Ba’ztaab: ‘The Power of Self’- focuses on three pertinent components of life: Seek, Reflect, and Hear.

The campaign opens with the narration, “Woh tou hai koi, woh khud koi aur nahi, aakhir tou hee hai,” as a conversation with oneself, as a monologue. There is an exchange of ideas, and deepand communication with one’s inner self, much like when a woman looks at her reflection and reminds herself of the Power of Self.

Ba’ztaab: ‘The Power of Self

The campaign Ba’ztaab reminds us that the validation we seek from others is not what we need. It is our voice that becomes our biggest strength once we connect with what lies within us – “What I am seeking is already within me” – a power we all possess as individuals but tend to forget at times.

Zainab Salman’s campaigns are a reflection of her journey. Speaking about the campaign, Zainab Salman talks about the process of creating a meaningful message:

“Through this campaign, I want to remind each individual of their self-worth. If I could tell something to my younger self, it would be that it is YOU who empowers YOU. It is you who completes you. Hence, the concept of the collection came forth. Where the world is focused on vanity, I want to focus on the imperfections and the process of embracing the inner self.”

The brand’s contemporary ideology is not just about producing timeless pieces to be devoured by the naked eye; rather, it uses the medium of quality design to reflect deeper qualities of one’s character. Ba’ztaab: Self of Sense embodies just that by highlighting the complexity of a character at different levels.

The color palette for the collection itself has been kept very soft, yet the posture, body language, and eye contact of the models are very strong. Whereas there is a deliberate predominant use of whites to depict a sense of purity and peacefulness, the visuals of water represent power and wisdom.

The brand is here to live for tomorrow. It is celebrating resilience, power, and gratitude with its new campaign, Ba’ztaab – Power of Self.

Q1 What is the one thing that inspired you to go towards fashion?

The best thing about designing is that you can find inspiration anywhere and your mind never stops creating – there’s always something exciting to look forward to and this is what inspired me the most.

Q2 How do you select your color palette for a design season?

The collection’s mood has a direct impact on the color scheme. The color scheme is crucial to the brand’s identity; therefore I choose hues that complement the collection as a whole. In my recent collection, I used black as a symbol of power and sophistication which related to my Power of Self campaign.
