Shafaat studied at Lahore Grammar School and is a graduate of Kinnaird College, Lahore. She had no initial intentions of becoming a model or joining the entertainment business. Her discovery was accidental. A fashion photographer saw her at a party and made her a modeling offer, she initially refused. After taking permission from home, she started modeling. Her biggest break was the music video for Faakhir's song "Dilruba." Shafaat feels that it's the best part of her short career.[citation needed] The idea of the video was conceived, keeping her in mind.
She has worked with many photographers, including Khawer Riaz, Rehan Qureshi and Rizwan Beig. Shafaat is best known as the model who refused to wear sleeveless dresses.[citation needed] People in the fashion industry predicted her career will be short-lived and she would get very little work in the industry, yet she continued to be part of many TV commercials, including Pantene, Everyday, Fair & Lovely, Lipton, Sony, Paktel Tango and Nestle Pure Life to name a few. She was at her prime when she left modeling in early 2006.
