Androgyny — which is all about collaborating women's clothes and accessories with men's clothes — is a recurrent theme in designer Arjun Saluja's collection 'Rishta' and recently ended up being much admired at the WIFW.

"Androgyny has always existed in our culture. Even the royal men used to wear lungis, headgears, kurtas with skinny churidars. Only people who are confident with their identity can sport an androgynous look. It is restricted not only to the urban elite. A farmer wearing a lungi could be as androgynous like an elite guy wearing skirted pants," he says.

Men are seen sporting accessories, mix and matching bright colours, investing in jewellery, in short, they're doing everything that was once considered girl behaviour.
Yatan Ahluwalia, image consultant and specialist on men's style and grooming, believes there is nothing wrong with men wanting to dress up like women. He says, "It is a personal lifestyle choice that certain people make. This is not always an attempt to stand out in the crowd, but a way to express oneself."
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." Oscar Wilde
