Arry Dabas is everything you’d want a fashionista to be.
He’s good-looking, a model, still studying and has a taste in fashion that can only be called sartorially chic — Arry Dabas is everything you’d want a fashionista to be.
1. I love brands, I can never seem to get enough of them and since my clothes are always high-end and chic, I can afford to carry off a casual look and still look fabulous.
2. I alternate between the semi-formal shirt paired with linen or cotton pants or go all-out boy and pull on a pair of jeans complemented by a t-shirt.
3. My semi-formal shirts have to be made of textures that I feel comfortable in and have to be really funky in colour and design. My favourite piece that I own is a wheat coloured shirt with grey flower motifs in a sexy slim-fit cut from CK in Mumbai. What a shirt!
4. My linen and cotton pants are my personal favourites and are sourced from Manish Malhotra’s collections. I personally love a beige piece in cotton and a pure white piece in linen — they look and feel like heaven.
5. My jeans are my virtue and I am extremely possessive of them. While I love almost every piece I own, I stick to pencil cuts and slim and narrow fits, but there’s an old GAS in light-blue, almost white actually, that’s frayed and looks so delicious!
6. I go crazy with my t-shirts, and you get to see my naughty side there. I love tees with cartoon characters and have a fetish for long sleeve t-shirts. There’s this one black long-sleeved t-shirt from Lulu Lemon that I picked up in Vancouver and have to be held against a wall sometimes to keep myself from wearing it over and over again.
7. Another indulgence that I seem to go weak in knees for, every single time, is hooded t-shirts. They’re so amazing. Be it a sweat-shirt, a shirt or anything with a hood and you know the garment’s caught my attention.
8. I stick to the basics when I need to go desi and love this jodhpuri suit I got for myself through Kimaya. They altered it to my tastes and I think it’s just so fabulous. Worth every single penny!
9. I’m your quintessential beach-baby and love roaming around barefoot on the sands in nothing but a pair of shorts.
10. Accessories do not define me, my clothes do, but I do love my watches and own three very special pieces from Tommy Hilfiger, CK and Espirit. The only accessory I can rave about is a Armani Exchange belt that a friend got me from Paris recently, iconic logo buckle included.
My style is defined by casual chic. I am not one for body-fitting outfits, and hate really tight clothing. As long as it’s in my size and fits me comfortably — I am satisfied, that’s till I hit the stores again and then well… the cycle continues.
