"You can have anything you want in life if you dress for it." — Edith Head.

Fashion has always been an important part of a man's lifestyle and it has evolved with changing times- During the 70s people were so fascinated about flare pants, platform and Hippie chic prints, during 80s it was the decade of the power dresser but also of punk which gave us Madonna, Tina Turner and Cher, plus numerous other superstars. Less was definitely more in the '90s, and that included back flashing. The more you bared, the cooler you were.

Northeast India is known for its fashion statement and it is no doubt then that the region has given many internationally acclaimed fashion designers to the world.
