4. The first online issue of Fashion Central Magazine captivated and charmed our
viewers and the acclaim that we received is a testament to their acceptance of this online
Fashion publication.
Some viewers went so far as to say that we had exceeded the levels of excellence in terms of
visual content, graphic design,events related images,that brought forth ample visual delight.
Much that such comments infuse substantial encouragement, there is always a craving for
more, and to our joy, viewers have spared time for some very valuable suggestions and since
we regard them as the ultimate judge, we have incorporated a few of the proposals.
The front cover for the August online issue turned out to be phenomenal and viewers
just loved the radiance of Mariah Carey.Hopefully the face on the cover in this
publication will also be treated with admiration and respect.
From the business angle, times are tough and since publication is still in its infancy, the
advertisements will take time to mature. However our gratitude to those who have already
shown confidence in us and did not hesitate to lend support.To these dear ones we offer our
thanks and immense gradtitude.

14. Miss Pakistan World 2012 Finalist
Sabiha is a 20 year old British Pakistani she is a
computer science student at university and works as a
part time teaching assistant at the Ilford learning centre in
London. She also worked as a student learning assistant
(SLA) at her university which she was awarded for recently.
She has currently passed her second year at university
and will pursue her third year. Her confidence has flour-
ished whilst working with different age groups.
Sabiha worked voluntarily at an Asian Women’s Advisory
Service (AWAS) where she has believed to have gained
an insight into how many people perceive different prob-
lems in life and deal with them, this has made her a very
diplomatic person; she organised and performed a drama
piece to empower women, this was her second live perfor-
mance that she has ever given in a public place, she feels
it’s a lovely experience to see people appreciate your help,
which is why she voluntarily went on to do
this. She wants to do more to help women
in the future, hence her presence in the
Miss Pakistan pageant.
This pageant consists of 5 rounds of which one is a talent
round; Sabiha has compiled a dance remix which consists
of a mixture of Pakistani Western/English and Afghani
songs, to perform on.The choice of music was hers; she
believes the mixture represents the difference cultures in
Pakistan; bringing the western world closer to Pakistan;
this is something she believes people need to accept.
The dance is choreographed by her and her friends who
helped a lot critically.
She has been reading on Pakistan and India’s history and
various other documents and books for her preparation
towards this pageant. One of the most touching she feels

encouraged and motivated by as it sent a deep message
through Parvez Musharrafs writing of events.
Sabiha believes life has taught her a lot since childhood;
teaching her to stay strong whether family problems were
at hand or whether she was forced into anything. She
calls herself a freedom fighter, as over the years she has
become an individual who has always wanted to stand for
not only her rights, but the rights of other citizens residing
in Pakistan especially after paying a visit there last year;
where she taught some children in the neighbourhood of
Gojra Pakistan (which is in the Punjab province of Paki-
stan) their basic English. She loves helping these vulner-
able children who are in the need of education.
She says “it was touch-
ing to see them so
happy whilst learning;
I would love to go back
again whenever I get a
chance and do
something more
supportive.” She has
always believed that
education is the base
of understanding others
opinions.This career
was not happily ap-
proved by her family or
a few others she came
across. Nonetheless,
she carries her beliefs
and dreams in a
positive and confident
manner, as there is
more to her than what
other want to enforce;
she is looking forward to
meeting people just like
herself at this pageant
in August.

28. Katy
PerryKatheryn Elizabeth
Hudson recognized
and known by her
stage name
Katy Perry, is an
American singer,
songwriter, and
actress who grew
up to the tunes of
gospel music..

30. Right from first year of high school,
she pursued a music career as Katy
Hudson and sought recognition and
acceptance as a leading singer.The
singing in the church had really helped
her to fine tune her talents.Even from
the angle of singing many things were
forbidden.Her mother
strictly forbade her
from listening to
secular music and
restricted her to at-
tending
Christian schools
and camps,but
luckily for her,as a
child she learned
to dance and
enjoyed the good
fortune of being
taught by sea-
soned teachers.
All this,certainly,sharpened
her abilities as an en-
tertainer and gave her
the confidence to launch
herself into commer-
cial ventures,but though
the initial failures were a
little dampening,persistence
brought enough success to
keep her going.

31. With the release of
her first mainstream
album, One of the
Boys in 2008, which
spawned three
Billboard Hot 100 top-
ten songs—”I Kissed
A Girl”, “Hot n Cold”
and “Waking Up In
Vegas”.

32. Perry supported the album with her Hello Katy Tour. In
2010, Perry released her third studio album, Teenage
Dream (2010), which topped the Billboard 200 chart, and
spawned five number one singles—”California Gurls”,
“Teenage Dream”, “Firework”, “E.T.” and “Last Friday Night
(T.G.I.F.)”.Teenage Dream became the first and so far only
album (after Michael Jackson’s Bad)—to do so, and thus
Perry became the first female in history to achieve this.
Amongst her other accomplishments,Perry has spent over
52 consecutive weeks in the top ten of the Billboard Hot
100, and has since extended this to 69 weeks. In 2012,
Perry also secured nominations for eight Grammy Awards,
including Album of theYear (Teenage Dream) and Record
of theYear (“Firework”). Along the way she was named
2011’s “Artist of theYear” by MTV.
In terms of numbers her achievements are huge.The sales
of digital tracks in USA add upto 37.6 million and the figure
on worldwide basis is 11 million.
Her married life did carry a tempestuous touch, but all
such woes have been overcome and the little girl who,a
few years back, began taking her first music lessons at the
age of nine is now a star.
Perry is known for her
unconventional style
of dress which is
often humorous bright
and uses fruit shaped
accessories as part
of her outfits.

33. Perry appeared as a
judge during the
Dublin audition show
of the British
Television show,The X
Factor.

34. If you remember the darksiders first part then you would
know that it was a good game with some irritating designs.
No doubt darksiders did a good business and it was very
well sold. Darksiders made around 1.86 million but it didn’t
sustain its players for a long time. After some time players
moved back to fifa which they usually play.
First of all the character of darksider 2.Talking about death
then it is an impatient soldier. He is different from his
brother the strategist war. Death is much faster than war.
Death is unstoppable. It doesn’t even waste time and has a
metaphysical arm which decreases the distance between
death and its enemies in darksider 2. In darksider 2 death
has also given the feature in which he can utilize multiple
armor sets. Not to forget about the 2 distinguishing skills
of death.These two skills are Harbinger: which focuses
on combat combination and second skill is Necromancer
which is more focus on spells. In first part we know that
surroundings were not very much noisy they were next to
muted. Darksiders 2 is different. It has featured death in
an underground caravan which is very lively and colorful.
Not only environment, almost everything in darsider 2 has
been improved and advanced. But as per the information,
darksider 2 has not touched combat more. Game is now
much speedier but it still relies on one button. Defense is
disappointing. At least if it’s an action game there should
be good defense system in it. In defense what only you
can do is to roll away to avoid the enemies.
Now, little teaser about the story of darksider 2, Death is
on an adventurous mission to redeem his brother. In game
death has to meet with a character who is Lord of Bones.
This character was trying to process about 6 billion dead
individuals and transferring them to underground. After this
death has to fight in arena and win from the champion and
has to get its head. Now this needs high agility and skill.
Death has all this in itself.
Darksiders II merges action,
exploration, and loot-driven
progression into an excellent
and sizable adventure.

34Game

37. It is heard that Darksider 2
is going to be about 4 times
bigger than first part of
darksider.
In darksider 2 experience
points will be gained by
smashing heads of the
enemies. All these points
then will be spending on the
skill tree.You don’t have to
buy everything, you need to
choose power ups that will
suit the way you play.

64. It is time to say goodbye to the bright sunshine and wel-
come the usual rain, wind and eventually the snow. I got
to admit, the summer this year was actual summer.Wasn’t
as hot as it was in Pakistan but I definitely felt the warmth
of the sun. One of the best things about moving on to next
season is the chance to shop for new clothes ;) as my last
year collection is ‘So last year ‘Looking at the Paris fashion
week (2012) I have noticed trends from leather skirts to
bold colour over sized capes ,some very interesting styles
are trending this autumn. Here is a snap shot of what Hot
for the autumn 2012.
School chic are visiting the class room again this fall.
School girl fashion covers everything from nice chick
over sized glasses, to a cute school girl tie, from
beautiful pleated checked skirts to peter pan col-
lars. Style it up with some knee high socks or with
leather jewellery or boots! Everything in leather is
definitely hot this autumn. Leather brings out the
edgy and wild side of any outfit.Wearing leather
with right combination of colour and the fabric is
the key.
Cloaks and Capes have been sneaking in every
autumn and winter from past couple of years,
and this year is not an exception, however this
year designers are being more adventurous.
We have seen tailored capes, Cloaks and
blanket capes.You can either buy
a nice bright colour or traditional
black to warm you up throughout
the winter.
The best bit of this fall is ‘Shades of Red’.The
colour of passion and love is super hot this
fall. Designers have used many different
fabrics such as velvet, leather, silk and
fur in different shades of red.You can choose fruity red to
deep maroon any shade is in fashion this fall.
I have covered all the major trends from cloaks to
keep you warm, to leather skirts for a night out!
Now we will cover briefly cover the must have
accessories this fall, after all accessories are
like icing on an outfit. Must have, a pair of knee
high boots this season, it could work with the pair
skinny jeans, leggings or a skirts. Don’t forget your
hats!;)

70. Dîner en Blanc Returns to
New York
Sean “Diddy” Combs’White Party of legend this was not:
no Hamptons, no A-list celebrities, no catering. But as
the sun set Monday over Lincoln Center Plaza — where
3,000 guests decked out in white feather hats, boas,
wigs and tuxedos gathered for NewYork’s second an-
nual Dîner en Blanc — the scene seemed every bit as
indulgent.
Billed by organizers as “the world’s first viral culinary
event,” the dinner party, coproduced in NewYork by
Gilles Amsallem and Pierre Battu of events firm French
Tuesdays, had humble beginnings.Twenty-four years
ago, founder François Pasquier threw a small dinner in
Paris to reconnect with friends. So many people wanted
to attend that he advised partygoers to wear white so
that they could find each other.The gathering grew each
year by word of mouth, and in recent years has taken
place at the Louvre and Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.
Now it’s become global: It will pop up in Philadelphia, Chi-
cago, Singapore, Vancouver and Brisbane, Australia, over
the next two weeks.
“I’m really happy to see that people are taking on a chal-
lenge like Dîner en Blanc,” said Aymeric Pasquier, the
event’s producer and son of François.“It’s a lot of invest-
ment.”
Guests, who paid $25 to attend, were required to BYO-
everything: tables (white), chairs (white), food and drink
(not necessarily white), while adhering to a strict, elegant,
all-white dress code. Arriving by public transportation was
mandatory, and the location was revealed only an hour
before the start time.
