Menswear Spring-Summer 2017 @ Paris Is ‘Look-Alike’ of Indian Homme

Walter1balThe ongoing Paris Menswear Spring-Summer 2017 Fashion Week has nothing new to offer, especially to us in India. Big-ticket designers are showing what Indian designers had shown a year or six-months back. These pictures back my claim:

See the printed floral bandhgala of Rohit Bal from sumer of 2016 and the one by the Parisian designer infamous for sexually loaded fashion – Walter Van Beirendonck’s summer 2017 collection.

R+R1Check-out the the opening look of Christian Dada from his spring/sumer 2017 show at Paris…the layered wrap look over trousers is kinda replica of what Rohit Gandhi+Rahul Khanna showed in December 2016 at the GQ Show. And since Ranveer Singh wore that ‘half-lungi’ wrap over his pants, the photograph went viral and the look is famous now.
