this is an homage to the real fashionist in Mumbai and maybe in India. The boys and young man.

In sleek, perfect suited multicoloured shirts, high color and tight trousers. hanging around in a very relaxed , played back way. that's when you look at the first. Looking at them again you realise 1001 different haircuts with even more layers and length, leathershoes or wellchoosen slippers.

they are ot buying western clothes as such. at least they are not going to proper shops and buying real labels such as puma, adidas or any other brands.

they do, but do not expect they are real brands.

i do not know the guys that much. at the beginning i got annoyed about them, asking me always for my name, y country, having a picture taking. so i stopped looking. but never forgot there is seomthing around them.

then my lovely fashion blogger and its self confident love of different classes. he does not talk to them, because he is too much interested in too many peopel at the same time. but he loves they way people from oter classes wear those things.

he would say they are working class. tailor, carpenter, rickshaw driver, me meant. those guys are watching bollywoodmovies, one of their main inspirations. i guess. then the street.

i am sorry i cannot forget. the blogger said in some points he would be surprised that people form a different classes who are less exposed to fashion are fashionable as well and have sometimes the same taste.

but everybody is exposed to bollywood. and everybody or at least one or the other is interested in fashion. doe snot matter how much money you have. i think.

just a theory. people just forget sometimes that people from other classes can have the same interest, desires. mostly that happens when upper looks at downer class, but also other way round. promiss.
