Your thoughts on the concept of trending fashion?

Fashion has crossed boundaries and has truly become a global concept. Personally, I don’t really follow trends but in recent times there is a strong global movement towards breathable fashion. By that I mean sustainable, recyclable, natural and organic fashion. Clearly layering is preferred now, giving you the flexibility to mix and match your wardrobe.

How can guys incorporate Indian textiles and weaves into their everyday looks?

I think it’s quite simple. You can layer your look with a waistcoat, scarf, handkerchief or a handloom tie. Or even a simple khadi shirt. Even a woven, well-cut ikat jacket can transform your look.

How has fashion changed for men in India?
