new city: the search for home (an ode to the people of nawanshahr, punjab) we got featured via @vogueitalia ♥️ this series is a long-time coming and we can't believe we finally get to share it! new city - nawanshahr - ਨਵਾਂ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ is a district in punjab. founded by settlers migrating from nearby towns and pre-partition punjab. our goal was to capture the essence, the style, and the coolness that our parents and elders would carry in their day-to-day. ways in which they adapted to their new homes. we wanted to catch them in their element and in their potential. i grew up with my family, many of which are blue-collared workers, expressing themselves through streetwear brands. a lot of my style inspo is derived from their wardrobe, stealing pieces from their closets and hoping to ooze the same effortless drip that they possess. 😅 each person featured is a member of our family, who have at one point called nawanshahr home. each with countless stories to share. the first image featured is of mohinder singh nagra and surinder kaur nagra, two people who have literally introduced us to streetwear brands while working for several years at si vous plait (iykyk!!). these two are your fav neighborhood grandparents. ♥️ featured in @vogueitalia @photovogue ♥️ cd: @kay__ray ph: @bsinghh styling: @gagan.k.bassi #vogueitalia #voguemagazine #britishvogue #vogueitalia #vogueitaly #photovogue #photovoguefestival #photovogueitalia #filmphotography #torontocreatives #rexdale #nawanshahr #punjabimodel #sikhmodels
