Falguni and Shane Peacock were the first designers in India to pepper their menswear with fluttery feathers, which took shapes of floor-sweeping capes, shrugs, and tuxedo accents. Rebellious, punk and subversive their menswear is steeped in storytelling, attention to detailing, and red-carpet glamour.

Drawing inspiration from musicians, cinema, and subcultures, FSP menswear has been the go-to label for Hollywood and Bollywood royalty, besides global pop sensations. Upbeat, sassy, and wearable their metallic bombers, sharp tuxedos, and sensual mesh shirts embody their penchant for bold, uninhibited, and fearless dressing. Over to the designers.

Falguni Shane Peacock menswear is synonymous with musicians, actors, and influencers globally. Who's the FSP man?

The FSP man is youthful, edgy, and comfortable with what he is wearing. He's fearless and confident. His style is personalised and nuanced.

You were one of the first designers in India to experiment with feathers in menswear. Now one sees feathers eclipsing the menswear landscape. How does it feel?

We have never followed trends as designers. We've always broken rules. Having showcased internationally, we’ve added our own distinct language to each collection. There was a time when people were not open to the idea of feathers, but now they’re opening up to edgy styles, silhouettes, and embellishments. I’ve always believed that every brand has to stay true to their DNA.
