“In the last 10 years, there has been a massive change. The market has grown dramatically thanks to social networks, which have allowed marketers to reach new customers.

While men for decades have stuck to blue, gray and black, recently the norm has been broken. “Colours have a promising future. Regardless of what you think of ‘millennial pink’ or the recent neon obsession, one of the most remarkable aspects of these happenings is that they’re not just style gimmicks, they’re evident in your everyday life. Our style goals will continue to move away from corporate conformity (an integral part of 9-5 office hours) and toward thoughtful and inventive uniqueness as we approach a new era of work life where remote work, independent work and “disruptive” behavior seems to be the new standard. And color is crucial here, it’s a great way to stand out,” says Grover.

Bansal is very happy that men are moving away from the traditional and stereotypical Oxford look. “What I love is that now no color is off limits. So much so that today’s men don’t mind choosing women’s jackets if they like it. The bright pop of color or print on print for men is relatively new, but it’s improving fast,” says Bansal, who is a fan of Johnny Depp and how he creates a quirky look from head to toe is what Bansal admires in Johnny. . Ranveer Singh is another favourite. “I admire him for the confidence with which he carries himself. He is experimental and often wears our clothes. His style and our sensibilities coincide”, adds Bansal.

The elegant chain was reportedly made from 300 carats of rough diamonds, 200 carats of emerald-cut diamonds, and 2.5kg of gold. Men today are moving away from serious, personalized rings and opting for exaggerated jewelry is a game changer for sure,” says Bansal. “The rise of ornamentation, especially when mixed with other bold style choices, is refreshing to see in men’s clothing, which has traditionally been very drab. Who knows, maybe one day I’ll dare to wear an earring,” Grover jokes.
