From the traditional Pakistani Kurta -Pyjama to zardozi (embellished) Shervani-churidar to Band gala shervani (reminding one of Nehruvian era), brushing teasingly the eastern strokes of colourful hues found in pan south Asian hinu-muslim cultural pot-belly, it is found it has clearly carved a niche in the international and domestic men's fashion world rubbing its influence into the Middle East as well. Muslim men clothing for now has found a calling with the pinterest- driven Instagramming millenials who do not shy away from being particular about their attires and paying the extra attention to their overall looks. From caps to waist- belts, watches to shoes, every accessory now forms the part of the overall 'look'. Even the traditional black and white checkered arabian safas with co-ordinated jubbas and thobes are now found with zanny color blocks and embroiderey. The western guys couldn't be less similar when it came to Avant Garde fashion sensibilities. The three -piece suits with co-ordinated pocket-square or the rugged muffs round the neck does in no way reduce the muslim -quotient of an outfit. Now one can possibly argue that chinos do make the perfect cut for ideal juma'h prayers as they fall short just above the ankle but then there will always be naysayers. Muslim men clothing will somehow always weave in standard dress-code for men in the particular region they live in by assimilating the cultural islamic milieu which makes them create some interesting fashion statement one that lives long in the repository of instagram and memories alike. And not to forget that though the halal-code regarding the sharia dressing largely remains the same for both men and women with mandated covergae of body -parts, you probably can't discount the occasional cring-worthy vests and Bermudas flaunted both offline and online. Till then shop for your man from stores which you can bank upon when it comes to men's fashion.
Now don't get me wrong if I say that I am not much into 'Arab swag', agreeing that the traditional Jubbas and thobes carry a charm of their own when it comes to modest attires for Muslim men but equating that with being the 'be all and end all' of what the muslim world has to offer in terms of men's fashion aesthetics is a bit too far- stretched limiting one's definition of inclusive fashion. Often such blanket statements fail to encapsulate men of different regions and ethnicities to acknowledge a parallel narrative of fashion in the men's world.
