I have a Pinterest board called "Indian Men's Fashion". It began with the belief that Indian men can't simply dress like white guys: https://t.co/PrmNp2ubHC
A question to start with: what are some ways that Indian men can look, that nobody else can imitate without looking weird or silly? https://t.co/4Hssw9WfUS

Microsoft CEO Satya Narayana Nadella. He looks almost like a media or advertising CEO sometimes https://t.co/pQkMLb7utS
Ok back to looks – I dig this style. The chill, subtle variants are important. If it's too ostentatious it's like you're trying too hard https://t.co/Z8fEPDNugm
