Pakistani musician Ali Sethi made headlines for his recent performance at the Coachella music festival. While his music was widely praised, his outfit sparked a mixed reaction on social media.
Sethi defied gender norms by wearing a white Mughal angrakha, a traditional male garment with long sleeves, made by designer Fahad Hussayn.
However, some Twitter users questioned the outfit’s “manliness,” while others compared Sethi to Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh, known for his bold fashion choices.
Nevertheless, Sethi’s fans pointed out that the angrakha has been a traditional garment for men in South Asia for centuries.
As a symbol of Pakistani culture, Sethi’s clothing choice has become a topic of debate. While some criticized it, others praised it for its uniqueness and traditional value. It’s essential to embrace cultural diversity and celebrate traditional clothing from all over the world.
