Karachi: Pakistan’s renowned fashion designer Maria B, who has often made headlines for her unfashionable comments, has now shared her struggles-filled life experiences with fans.
In a recent interview, the fashion designer said that her journey to success was not easy, she had to struggle a lot with being a single mother of a baby girl and faced very bad economic conditions.
She said that when she got divorced, she had a three-year-old daughter and her business was at its lowest level, she was living in a rented house and she did not even have money to pay her employees.
Maria B said that today people talk about her big house but they don’t know that it took her 20 years to get it and she lived in a rented house for that long.
She said that she had to fight the fashion mafia in the industry who objected to her being a ‘public designer’ and believed that Maria would never succeed.
The designer said that people believed that after the divorce, Maria B received billions of rupees as damages, although her economic conditions were very bad at that time.
