Street Cheats

India is becoming fashion forward, and thankfully enough, traditional outfits have not seen the end of its time.

Jacky Laishram of POCO & JACKY mentioned that street style was a major inspiration for the brand. When questioned what his favorites looks from the street were, he was quick to say “Floor Length tailored jacket for men and women both. Circular skirts, wide trousers and high waisted pants are the bomb!”

The Amazon India Fashion Week for Spring/Summer 2016 happened a couple months ago and the looks off the runway are more radical than ever. Scroll down to see what street fashion looks like today and the hottest picks by Vogue and some personal favorites of POCO & JACKY…
