Waris? Still laughing at his role in The Darjeeling Limited. Frankly, I find his clothing well fitting but drab. Is that a fashion or a religious choice?
he was on the season premier of the new show the unusuals a couple weeks back!…and hes made a brief appearance in the inside man with danzel washington…way to go singh!
Wow – what a beautiful, elegant (and talented) man! i love that suit on him and the contrast of his black turban and beard with the other colours, its striking but subtle at the same time. It’s a great photo, Sart.
I like how he has draped his scarf like a turtleneck… his pose is great… the jacket kind of long… the yellow cabs in the background provide a nice contrast..
A friend of Wes Anderson’s, Waris is also in The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou and is an accomplished jewler. His collection is titled House of Waris.
Ahluwalia! Creative guy. House of Waris has amazing jewelry! But, you’d have to go to India to find even more amazing jewelry and design. He’s catering to the tastes of the West. Nothing more.
This dude is cool, cool, cool. I really like his suit. There is something about it that draws you closer. Like what the heck is it anyway, looks like a fine wale corduroy. Great bluish tint, love the camel scarf and the pull-it-together hanky. I wish I could wear a turban now.
This is a bespoke suit, of italian origin? I would assume a tailor from naples. i doubt this is a suit from Norton and sons, because it is not highly structured.
I love how that little handkerchief jumps off that drab suit. This is a religious uniform of sorts, but it reminds me of Catholic high school when we would find unique ways of self expression through the drab uniform. Shoes, hair, a belt, suspenders, anything we could find to adorn our uniforms became our mode of identifiable self expression. Fashion is loud even when it whispers.
Love it! The detail of the pocket hankie…the tasteful scarf….the whole outfit screams “dignified, elegant, classy”. Great pick! I love how it’s simple but quite a statement.
The worn-ness of the suit would otherwise seem daggy, but the decorative pocket handkerchief shows he knows exactly what he’s doing… as does his stance. This pic also shows how dusky and muted colours can be brought out by a bit of black accessorising – whether that’s a turban or a handbag or the colour of your hair. I wonder what shoes he’s wearing…
no, this is not a “religious uniform of sorts.” i know plenty of sikhs who wear bright colors. all the religious comments above are irrelevant, particularly when the commenter does not know what he/she is talking about. true, none of the comments were disrespectful per se, but please don’t make judgments about something you don’t know.
I knew I’d seen this guy somewhere before! Great combination of colours. Obviously the beard is a religious choice, but it does lend a touch of class, too.
I’ve always wondered whether men with super long beards wear scarves and if so, how do they wear them. Does the beard go inside the scarf or out? From the photo, I guess beards go in.
This beautiful, I just have to say this because he is, noble man is just perfect. He looks like a professional model, so cool and self-assured. He also reminds me of “Kip” the character from the movie “The English Patient”.
