ABOUT


BACKGROUND

H&Z was founded in 1999 as one of the first South Asian Modeling Agencies in the United States. The models of H&Z have been recognized as Miss India America, and Miss India America Photogenic. They have also featured in Bibi Magazine, various music videos, as well as in an opening fashion show of the concert of renowned Pakistani Band Junoon.  During the time when H&Z was founded, professional modeling in the South Asian business culture was close to unheard of. H&Z was dedicated to serving as an institution and platform to groom aspiring models to work as professionals.  Since then, the founders of H&Z have traveled to abroad and made numerous contacts in the fashion industry overseas. H&Z was ready to go full force and launch itself again in November of 2006 with a successful fashion show in Dallas, Texas.
