Modern Men’s Styling for Shoots and Events
From sharp editorial looks to promotional tour outfits, I help create modern, confident styles that feel authentic to you.

About this collection
Styling for men is often underestimated, but it is really about the details. The fit of a shoulder, the texture of a fabric, or how a jacket drapes makes all the difference. When I worked on the Kota Factory promotions, we played with bold graphic prints and monochromatic layers to create character, not just outfits. Whether we are planning for a high-stakes editorial shoot or a personal portfolio, my focus is always on making you feel grounded in your own skin. It is about creating a look that speaks before you do.
My process for men’s styling is a bit 'tedha' or unconventional. I don't just pull random designer pieces and hope for the best. I sit with you to understand your vibe. Are we going for that sharp, minimalist look like we did with Lakshya Parikh in a classic black turtleneck, or do we want to lean into contemporary streetwear with layered corduroy and graphic prints?
For shoots and promotional tours, I manage everything:
- Creative Direction: We build a mood board that aligns with your personality or the character you are playing.
- Sourcing and Logistics: I handle the hunt for pieces across Mumbai's rental houses and designer labels, ensuring we have options that work for your specific body type.
- On-Set Management: During the shoot, I am there to manage the wardrobe, steam garments, and tweak the styling to ensure every frame looks intentional.
Men’s fashion should be functional and expressive. I love mixing classic elements like a crisp polo or trousers with modern silhouettes to keep things fresh. If you are preparing for a campaign, a magazine cover, or just need to update your personal style for an upcoming event, let’s talk. We can build a narrative through your clothes that feels authentic, professional, and entirely you. 🪩✨
