Modi gets stylish, Hollande looks suave at R-Day parade

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, known for his sartorial taste, chose a well-tailored fawn-coloured bandhgala with a saffron Gujarati turban; as opposed to the crisp white shirt and formal suit sported by French President Francois Hollande, the chief guest at the 67th Republic Day Parade here on Tuesday.Hollande, who keenly watched the colourful parade that showcased India's military proweess and cultural diversity, looked suave and dapper in tune with the perception that French men have a style of their own.Alongside him was Modi, whose traditional look for the special occasion left Indian designers impressed.He was as "appropriately" dressed for the event as he is at other times, said fashion designer Amit GT, who has earlier showcased his creations in Paris, Milan and Vienna."His bandhgalas are always immaculately tailored. His look during the Republic Day was appropriate, if not fashion forward. He has to connect with all citizens of India, so if he sports a turban or anything related to India, it should be admired."He is a smartly dressed politician," Amit told.
