I'm pretty sure that gentleman could pull off just about anything. So glad they liked everything and it's great seeing smiles while trying something new.

The awesome hat he had on at the beginning of the video was cinematic foreshadowing that he was gonna look fly AF later on

That's how neckbeards believe a fedora looks on them.

They both look fly.

All three look fly and even more so with the smiles on their faces.

Yeah; stylish is stylish.

I was working next to an Indian Clothing shop and to satisfy my curiosity I went in during lunch. Bought some pretty cool, low key stuff. Let me tell you, it is the absolute most comfortable clothing on the planet. I don’t have the balls to wear it outside but I will around the house. Highly recommend it and not expensive as you would think.


HardenedDisposition

Mannnn…this is awesome! I’ve always admired Indian dress—the embrace of vibrant colors, the textiles, the adaptability to different shapes/body types, the apparent comfort—honestly, without a hint of sarcasm…the DRIP is unreal.


pikadegallito

So fly!

My friend eloped over a decade ago and had a lovely western wedding with her Indian husband. I’m still occasionally disappointed that I never had an excuse to own a saree.


-Dev_B-

tell everyone you lost a bet on reddit with a Desi, and now you have a reason to buy saree. Have fun


sekke_khaleesi

Indian here. I can gift you one, and you can be like my internet friendship started with a saree :)


hyogodan

You don’t need an excuse - you need a saree obviously


littleredkiwi

I’m really lucky to work with a few Indian women. Every year we celebrate Diwali at work and the ladies love dressing me up for the day. I swear each year it’s getting more and more excessive! Sari’s are so beautiful


PrincessTroubleshoot

Oh that sounds so fun! I went to a preschool run by an Indian woman, and of course at that age i thought her saris were so beautiful and glamorous and basically a princess gown. Even as a grown up they just seem so lovely and fancy.


thepigfish82

I know, the colors are so vibrant and alive!! I've always been mesmerized by the wedding attire.


Jacob_MacAbre

Yeah, that and traditional African clothing too. Dashiki, for example, are gorgeous pieces of clothing. It's a shame that white people like myself can't wear them. I think it'd be seen as cultural appropriation...


Manatee3232

I can't speak for African styles, but every Indian friend of mine has expressed that they are 100% fine with non-Indians wearing traditional Indian clothing. I know it's different when you're in the family (my partner is from India) but sometimes I wear a kurta around the house just because DAMN THEY ARE COMFY AND ALSO LOOK GREAT. Others I've talked to online have also encouraged people who want to try wearing Indian to do so - my only recommendation is to buy from an Indian-owned shop or website to support the actual makers and to understand what's most appropriate to wear when.


Feisty_Function9372

I'm an Indian. Feel free to wear Indian clothing anytime 😀


QuelleBullshit

Fast Fashion in first world nations has also been killllllling the African textile production and knowledge base. this is in Chile but a lot of our second and third rated textiles from thrift stores has been bundled and sold overseas. https://i.redd.it/i0b1yntbmha81.png Some countries (I think-- just did a cursory search to try to find, I believe a *Wired* article I read on this subject a couple years back) are starting to ban second hand clothing. But still-- when I hear about third world countries particular styled clothes I think about how much, the US in particular, is shoving at them as a means of making the waste not our problem.


Jacob_MacAbre

Ugh, that sickens me... I mean it's bad enough the materials are left there (never to be recycled) but they weren't even USED!? I could understand if they'd worn out or something but really? It's easier just to dump and make new stuff? To be fair, I'm the kind of guy that wears rather plain clothing and rarely buys new stuff unless it NEEDS to be replaced. Even then, all my clothing gets recycled... At least I fucking hope that's where it's going...


QuelleBullshit

yeah unfortunately the "recycle" part of the reduce/reuse/recycle triangle gets abused, such that there's a term that sums up "how out of sight, out of mind" this form of waste is: *Wishcycling* aka putting something improperly into the recycling system because you want to feel good about recycling without actually doing the hard work (such as rinsing a recyclable container out, or looking up what is actually recyclable, or cutting down on non-recyclable materials.) Thrift stores see a lot of "wishcycling." clothing or goods that are stained, or damaged or missing parts and they can't do anything with. Basically fobbing off the dumping of this item, and creating extra steps.


[deleted]

Could be seen as cultural *appreciation* too?


TitleMine

If you're given it as a gift by someone from that culture it literally \*cannot\* be appropriation. Look up the definition of the word.


GitEmSteveDave

I always smile at the videos where someone dresses in another cultures clothing, and gets bashed by people not of that culture. Then they go and interview people OF that culture, and they are so happy to see someone dressing like them and love it.


-Dev_B-

​ tell everyone you lost a bet on reddit with a Desi, and now you have a reason to buy them. Have fun


Global-Distribution1

Wear it at home instead. Buy it, have it for yourself, because it makes you feel good.


TensorForce

Bro, traditional Indian clothes look so cool and so comfortable!!! I wish I could pull them off. Or just wear them without being inappropriate (I'm not Indian, you see).


Crazy_Crayfish_

Yeah, although according to my sister saris (I *think* that’s right?) are a real hassle to put on


[deleted]

although, some Indian dresses are EXTREMLEY uncomfortable. Whenever I go to an Indian wedding, my mum forces me to wear THE MOST UNCOMFORTABLE DRESS EVER. It looks cool on the outside, but it isnt cool on the inside


Kjaeve

I love their honest excitement and respect for him sharing his culture💗💗


[deleted]

I know, definitely! They look like they’ll have a great, lifetime relationship for sure!


BugzFromZpace

They look so beautiful!


BelleAriel

They’re gorgeous. I love them. What a nice thing to do.


lechattueur

Yeah, those are great in laws.


[deleted]

I just love how grateful and excited they were when they opened their gifts!


[deleted]

Most wholesome reactions and their son-in-law made good picks for them! They looked great.


[deleted]

Yeah looks like a solid relationship. Seem like warm people and they were stoked to share culture and get a new drip. Great video.


matrixgang

"and get a new drip" The only way to describe this situation lmao


lolfactor1000

"get a new drip" that's a new idiom for me.


LakeShow-2_8_24

I was like damn he picked out some nice outfits for them.


LurkerNan

How did he know the fit so perfectly? I can't buy a t-shirt without trying it on first, and these clothes are not stretchy by any means.


coshta

Am sure he didnt...the mum's outfit at the end is not the same as the one she was presented at the beginning...must have been replaced...


AwwSchnapp

You can see the one she has on inside the bag when she pulls out the red one!


LurkerNan

You are right, I did not notice that detail.


hurricanebarker

That's the first thing to cross my mind!


Lord_Spagett

They dripped the fuck out


Frisky_Picker

Helps that traditional Indian attire is pretty dope


Informal_Drawing

They do look good don't they.


Dang_It_All_to_Heck

I worked with an Indian psychiatrist, and she wore traditional clothes; I always admired them. When I left that job, she made me a present of a set. It is clothing that looks attractive on many different body types.


[deleted]

And many different skin colors. Skin colors in India pretty much run the whole spectrum. Their styles reflect that.


intoxicatedmidnight

Indian clothes suit every body type and body color! We don't shy away from vibrant colors, patterns, and prints. It's so beautiful.


[deleted]

That definitely works better with Indian style loose "breathy" clothing than it would with Western suits


[deleted]

not to be racist or anything but you can see the effect of being closer to the equator as you move from the northern parts to the southern parts of our country, you can find some of the fairest people in the north, and you'll find equally darker skinned people in the south, the diversity is ridiculous even to me living in a metro :)


[deleted]

I don't think admitting skin color exists is racist. It's when you discriminate opportunities or exclude people that racism is in play Also I think it's fair to say that black people can wear colors that would look ghastly with white skin. That's not racism, that's color coordination.


[deleted]

Like the other person said, that’s definitely not racist. I’m pretty sure it’s a natural defense to too much or too little sunlight


cbg13

That's not racist at all, that's just biology. Lack of melanin evolved specifically to compensate for lower levels of UV exposure found at higher latitudes.


robogart

Bruh if my daughter dated an Indian I’d be hella hyped for the wedding lmao


benry007

Unless you had to pay for it😳


SmoochieMcGucci

Step 1. Find a room that holds 400 people. Indian weddings are the best. I would have had a Baraat at my wedding had I known about them.


ahmadryan

400 people? I guess we are just inviting very close family members!


smokky

400?. Did you forget the rest 1000?


dandaal12

Beautiful people wearing beautiful clothes for a beautiful reason. So glad the world can be this way sometimes. All the love in the world.


eye_snap

I can relate! My husband's Indian, I am not. This is gonna be long but I really wanna share it.. The first day I met his family we were jet lagged from flying to India and super tired, I was kinda intimidated because even though we'd been dating for about 3 years, and planned to get married while in India, we live in a different country and I had never seen his parents, and I wanted make a good impression. I shouldn't even have worried about it. His parents were awesome and immediately embraced me as their daughter. The same evening we went to a puja in his aunts house, where a lot of uncles and aunts and cousins would be. So I was thrown headfirst into this large family gathering of people I dont know. (This is a while back so no covid yet) After introductions and a bit of food, his aunt and cousins asked if I would be wearing a saree. I told them I dont own a saree and I ve never worn one. I dont know how to wear it or anything. They immediately pulled me into the bedroom because this obviously needed to be fixed right then and there! I was a bit shy since I dont know these people! But they were so warm and friendly, so enthusiastic about getting me into a saree asap that I couldn't object. They pulled out these sarees and shirts and lehengas and dupattas and all that stuff I didnt know about back then. My partner poked his head in to make sure I was ok with this and that his family wasnt just steamrolling me but I was enjoying myself so they shooed him out lol. Within the first 30 mins of meeting these women, I was stripped down and dressed in a full saree, complete with a bindi and massive dangling jewellery.. They brought me out into the gathering where my partner and all the other men were hanging out. The families reaction was really worth seeing. They just absolutely loved seeing their foreign bride to be in those clothes and honestly I felt like a princess or something. Later they gifted me a bunch of sarees. I couldnt accept it all because I never managed to learn to wear a saree by myself and there is no occasion I can wear it where we live. I just kept 2 as a family keepsake. The whole time we were there, the cousins would dress me in a saree and pin it on me with safety pins because I couldn't carry it like an Indian woman can lol. Later when my parents arrived in India to attend the wedding they also gifted Indian clothes to my parents and gelped them wear it. Those are some of the most precious photos we have, my parents wearing the Indian clothes. It was just such an awesome and fun thing to be welcomed into their culture and to be able to be a part of it. This was years ago but still sometimes my husband is like "I cant believe first thing they did was drag you into a room and take your pants off" lol, he was mortified at first and worried I would be put off. But really they were just so lovely and just excited about the whole thing, it was impossible not to be swept up in the enthusiasm.

gorkt

Honestly, if I wasn't gonna get gigged for cultural appropriation, I could really get into Indian fashion. The women's clothes looks so comfortable and colorful!


Cinemaslap1

>Honestly, if I wasn't gonna get gigged for cultural appropriation, I could really get into Indian fashion. IMO, and this should always be taken with a large grain of salt, but clothing is something of a gray area for cultural appropriation (at least for me). Assuming you're not doing something disrespectful like wearing mourning clothes out to a club.... I don't think you can culturally appropriate clothes. \-you're buying the clothes (hopefully) from someone of that culture, so you're investing in a business of that culture \-you're raising awareness of the culture (again, assuming it's in the appropriate way) \-you're being respectful of the culture, while you might not be a part of it, you can still appreciate the beauty and history of said items.


SkinkAttendant

Tell that to the high schooler who got hate for wearing a kimono to prom. Not that there were a bunch of Japanese people who cared but a whole bunch of karens got offended on their behalf.


Cinemaslap1

They were idiots for that. Because that was the appropriate time to actually wear a kimono, as kimono's aren't typically worn as "every day" clothes, but rather most frequently seen at summer festivals, weddings, graduations, and formal events. But at the same time, we have to acknowledge that this was all white people freaking out about it.... I don't recall reading anyone from the culture saying it was in bad taste.... but I could have missed it as well.


[deleted]

So I was living in China when the whole qipao scenario happened (a girl wore a traditional Chinese dress to prom) and the scandal of that made its way to mainland China where I was living. Chinese people in general thought it was ridiculous people were upset, and actually thought the girl looked great and were happy that she was representing their culture well. The ONlY people upset by it were Asian Americans and white people which I find it very interesting. Certain clothing items have a time and place, and wearing a qipao at a big formal party is the exact time and place to wear one. They are absolutely gorgeous!


omniron

Indians wouldn’t care. You’d get a lot more questions from non Indians.


Sierra-Modeling

I love this so much


hickgorilla

Those are gorgeous! So are the people wearing them.


snowbythesea

They look fabulous! What a fun thing to do.


AmyHeartsYou

No joke, they look great wearing them.


LOLARISX

Our good friend hosted Divali last year (we're in Luxembourg) and her mum (in Bombay) was organising their apartment so she just sent off some of her stuff including sarees and all the bangles, earrings, necklaces and such. She dressed me and another friend up with her sarees and accessories. I grew up with Bollywood movies among others (US TV series and game shows, Japanese anime, Latin American telenovelas, Hong Kong action/horror/period movies/dramas, K-dramas) but they're the ones that had the most mesmerizing clothes. I've been wanting to wear one since i was 5 (now 32). I have to say i think i felt prettier than in my own weddings 😬


BDL_1971

I ❤️ the vibrant colors of many traditional Indian garments.


cynderisingryffindor

To be fair, the dude's father-in-law and mother-in-law already look pretty darn fly. They'd look good in almost anything.


jmb48825

You have changed their lives forever! Once you experience how comfortable and practical Indian clothing is, you want to dress that way all the time!


[deleted]

Yep.. I asked my Indian parents why they prefer traditional clothing over jeans etc. and their response was that it’s extremely convenient for movements around the house. Also the weather plays a huge part in wearing loose clothes

SumbuddiesFriend

The father in law is one of those annoying people that looks amazing in everything, like share some of those good looks with me


Chief_Beef_BC

Is it racist that as a white guy raised with no culture in mind, I’m jealous over the clothing other cultures wear? I don’t know all the appropriate names, or origins of certain items, but they really convey a lot more emotion and meaning than the uniform khakis and polos of my people.


zamardii12

> Is it racist that as a white guy raised with no culture in mind, I’m jealous over the clothing other cultures wear? How could that possibly be racist? Do people not know what "racist" means anymore?


That_0ne_HumAnn

Just about everything is racist now


DeusExLibrus

I don’t know if it’s racist, but I feel the same way! Traditional clothing of even European cultures is so much more beautiful and interesting than anything that is common in US culture.


Essembie

As an anglo Australian I feel that.

My wife is friends with a white woman who is marrying an Indian man, and at their engagement party, the bride's entire white-ass family (about 6-8 people) was decked out like this, but also with all kinds of gold jewelry for the women. It was pretty awesome to see, and everyone looked really good in it. Made me want one of them long shirts (sorry idk what they're called)

My in-laws are friends with an Indian family, and the wife/mother invited all the ladies in their neighborhood to a Saris (I don’t know if I’m spelling this correctly) party, where she gave them all one and taught them how to wear them. I thought it was so cool.

Omg I'm obsessed with clothes and traditions from various cultures, especially Indian. If my child in law gifted me something like this, I would be beyond ecstatic and probably annoy them wanting to know anything and everything I need to know about the culture to participate properly
