The swanky managing director of Woodland India keeps his style casual yet stylish: his CV of favourites, from a Burberry trench coat to a gold Rolex.
The swanky boss at Woodland India keeps his style casual yet stylish.
Personal style: For me, style is the way you live, and it’s an honest and true aesthetic translation of the core values that make up your identity. A good style is one that combines fashion with functionality. It is casual, eco-friendly and delivers on utility. Most of the time, you will see me wearing casual shirts with jeans and sneakers. I like to keep a casual yet stylish look.
Style prediction: 2013 is going to see more of a fusion between earthy and natural colours. Sci-fi and futuristic combinations with cosmic, aquatic shades of underwater, grass green tones to cherry red. Performance and environment friendly designs will be the game changers.
The CV
01 The coat – Trench coats: Even though I am a casual dresser, I do opt for coats sometimes for formal occasions. I like the Burberry Classic Trench coat for winters. ₹20,000
02 Shoes – Woodland: They say, you can tell a man by the kind of shoes he wears. I am an adventure enthusiast and therefore I love the Woodland ProPlanet series for casual wear. ₹4-7,000
03 Belt – Tod’s: Usually I do not wear belts, but whenever I do, it has to be a Tod’s belt with heavy alloy buckle. ₹14,000
04 Sunglasses – Maui Jim: I like Maui Jim sunglasses. Perfect for outdoor adventures and everyday wear with the right combination of eye-protection technologies and style. It’s a must-have for all spectacle enthusiasts. ₹14,000
05 Scarves – Hugo Boss: One can’t do without scarves in Delhi during winters. I like Woodland and Hugo Boss for scarves because of their simplistic designs. ₹9,000
06 Bag – Bvlgari: I rarely carry bags, however, I like to carry my laptop in the Bvlgari bag that’s a classic design. ₹8,000
07 T-shirt – Burberry: I am a casual dresser and Burberry T-shirts are just the right fit for me. I preferably like to wear polo neck tees whenever I am outdoors as these t-shirts are trendy, good on skin and keep your style quotient always high. ₹12,000
08 Watch – Rolex: I’m a watch person and I like buying watches whenever I get a chance to do so. Though I have a lot of watches, my current favourite is a beautiful gold Rolex with a blue lapis stone in the dial. ₹1,50,000
09 Pants – Burberry: I prefer casual trousers and love trying out different styles like cargos, chinos, linen etc. Normally I pick my casual pants from Burberry. ₹24,000
10 Shirt – Hugo Boss: I’m not a big shirt person, but on occasions, a slim fit shirt is my first choice. I like unconventional mix and match looks – a comfortable tailored shirt with jeans, or under a blazer for work or even to a party. I prefer Hugo Boss shirts, which are comfortable yet stylish. ₹18,000
Jacket – Marc Jacobs: With dry winter approaching, it’s time to shed summer styling and go for warm jackets. I have different styles of jackets in my wardrobe, but I am particularly fond of Marc Jacobs’ jackets. I like to wear the bomber jackets and the leather jackets particularly from the brand. ₹36,000
