Kanjivaram Sneakers and the Loud Woman I can't tell you the number of times I've been told to shut up or speak softly throughout my life. This is still an everyday experience for women across generations for whom constantly 'adjusting' to the prevalent male #narrative whatever that might be. Not disturbing the eco system or defying a norm is a habit, a condition and an interesting phenomenon if you unravel it. Usha Uthup, the powerhouse singer,is probably an early example of an icon who was loud, bold and represented an era where #women were predominantly silent. Probably the earliest to wear modified sneakers with sarees she represents three fabulous aspects of ' how to be.' 1. You can always modify convention so that it suits you. Whether it is huge bindis or kanjeevaram sneakers, you just tweak the norms your way. 2. Wear your roots, origins and stories with pride but also learn to assimilate other influences. 3. Keep up with younger generations and embrace trends with curiosity. There are always people who will find solace and direction with your influence. Staying relevant involves being loud but not necessarily fighting an uphill battle constantly.

Seems like expressing opinions and making choices has become ‘too modern’ for you. Social media is a platform where people are free to dress however they want, and if you don’t like it, simply don’t watch. However, social media is not intended for children. As for your post, stop posting nonsense just for the sake of it. This ‘too modern’ post is problematic and deeply rooted in patriarchy. Women are not objects for your desire, anger, or frustration. Thankfully, women don’t need a manual on what to wear or how to behave. Knowledge is essential for understanding broader issues, and this isn’t one of them.

Rage baited article with superficial understanding of the issue. 1. Instagram has a minimum age restriction of 13 years. 4-5yos on the app isn't an influencer's responsibility. 2. A woman's body isn't an "adult object" that kids needs to be censored against. 3. The fact that a woman can gain followers just by showing her body, says more about society than the woman. Where there's demand there's supply. Please educate your fellow men to stop being perverts. 4. I agree that context and setting is important, but a woman's semi-clothed body being perceived sexually is a bigger issue we have at hand. 5. Your objection to them seeking attention via "short" clothes doesn't regard the fact that the people who give them attention for it are the real menace, not only on social media but to real women in the real world. 6. Men can do similar things and won't get attention for it. There's a reason behind this difference. It lied in how they're perceived. Not them. The problem isn't these women, it's a society that sexualises and objectifies women constantly which leads to the commodification of women in a capitalist society, where women land up become the products that sell. So stop worrying about the alleged 4-5yos and show some concern about the women that are regularly being predated on by the same men you refuse to hold accountable. #shortclothes #feminism #objectification #ragebait

Dear Girls, Stop Wearing Clothes in Vulgar way Stop Becoming Too Modern Series ( Part-2 ) Firstly, what clothes girls choose to wear is their right and choice. No one has the right to question it. Respecting personal freedom and self-expression is essential in a progressive society. But Some girls wear short clothes inappropriatly just to gain more followers, which is completely wrong, and I have questions about that- The biggest example is social media. I've noticed some influencers who produce vulgar videos solely for the sake of gaining followers (e.g., Sofia Ansari). It seems they forget that there are children watching; even a 4-5-year-old can come across these reels. Have we truly reached a point where people have sunk so low? Another example is Rhythm Chanana, "The Viral Delhi Metro Girl,' who was recently seen wearing a bikini in the Delhi Metro as a publicity stunt to gain followers. It's disheartening to see how far people will go for viral fame My concern is that you have the right to wear whatever you choose, but it's essential to consider the context and setting. I don't have a problem with wearing short clothes, but I do have an issue with wearing them inappropriately or in the wrong places. Clarification : I'm not criticizing all girls; I'm specifically talking about those who wear certain outfits inappropriately or in the wrong settings just to seek attention. I know some women who can wear short dresses and still look Decent, not vulgar. Repost ♻️ To raise more awareness! Follow for more posts on social topics! NISHKARSH SINGH #women #Men

The first line of the picture is the messiest thing I have read all week. I feel it doesn't hold much credibility here's why: I for a starter wear ethnic wear approximately 4 out of 5 workdays in a week and that too with a lot of pride. There was a time I used to think that like people give you more importance when you know and speak in English as opposed to when you don't. Likewise, people give you more importance when you wear western wear to work and consider you to be docile if you wear Indian wear. But I don't believe in both of these ideas anymore at all. Women look all powerful and graceful in a Saree. They look all pretty and professional in Kurti-leggings, Suits. Infact, I see the social media is full of pages selling these and the numbers are increasing day by day. You would also see a lot of organized setups brining traditional ethnic wear brands under one roof like the Local Nation. Talking about the numbers, as of the latest available data, women’s ethnic wear constitutes about 71% of the total women’s fashion segment. This indicates a strong preference for traditional attire among Indian women. The market size of women’s ethnic wear in India was approximately 17 billion U.S. dollars in the financial year 2020 and is estimated to reach more than 24 billion dollars by 2025. Life isn't the same for everyone, financially and culturally. Beyond the rich, upper middle and half of lower middle class, you would see most women and girls wearing ethnic wear on a daily basis. I believe 'Desi is Classy' and that 'Desi is Messy' is a very microscopic view of some people sitting in elite offices.

In the work setup, formal wear is associated with western wear in India, especially for men. Even if it means being stuffy in neckties (back in the 90s & 2000s) or blazers. Saree was common among women - at least in the ad industry and client industries years ago. Brands such as Allen Solly and others brought the formal western wear among women - which slowly became synonymous with formals at work for women too, at least in the metros. In smaller towns, such as Udupi I I have not noticed western wear among women - it's mostly traditional Indian wear. Of course, that becomes a must during 'ethnic day' - not my favourite description of traditional Indian wear (as if we are describing natives and their 'ethnic' wear 🙄). Nevertheless, interesting to see this report: 'While those aged 25-35 years are the largest cohort of customers for Suta, the 18-25 years segment is also witnessing rapid growth, as Indian clothing styles are gaining traction among younger people'. As an aside, I find Instagram to be a great platform for discovering (and purchasing) many such D2C brands. Meta has done a scarily good job of the algorithms.
