1.Afro Punk
To label Afro Punk a festival would be too narrow a term. Afro Punk is a celebration of rich black culture in every form, be it music, traditions and lest we forget, fashion. Living up to the celebratory spirit, the attendees turn up in some of the most breath taking ensembles that we have set our eyes on. The festival began in 2003 with a documentary highlighting black presence in the American society and has been going strong ever since. The community comes together every year to find solace in art, music and films. And fashion. It’s a stunning display of a group of people celebrating their ethnicity in the most glorious ways and by god, they are beautiful.

Burning Man is one of the most iconic festivals in the world and it is no surprise that the ‘Burners’ as all the attendees are referred to, are one of a kind. Here, clothes are not just fashion, they become an extension of yourself. And it is no surprise that they go to such elaborate heights to create these costumes. They say Burning Man is an experience of a lifetime, so why not have the clothes fit the occasion?
