Hi, I am a new breed. A political fashion stylist. Much in trend this season. No, not Fall. But the hot-as-hell election season.

My go-to shopping destination? Sadar Bazaar. You can also call it the ‘Sarojini Nagar’ of politics.

And my budget? Rs 500. Why such a low budget, you ask? Because you see, no one wants a ‘suit boot ki sarkaar’.

But for now, how about trying out some of the looks I have created, for all you political junkies to choose from?

1. The Shady Business

You can pick from two available styles: Blinded by Bhakti, or Blind Believer in Brand Loyalty.

The best part? Both the BJP and Congress wallahs can throw unlimited ‘shade’ at each other...for only Rs. 45.

2. The Isski Topi Usske Sar

As the name of the look suggests, the isski topi usske sar look is the hottest thing to buy this election season. While your favourite sakaar may or may not make it after five years, these topis, we promise, come with a better warranty scheme.

My recommendations: the ‘viral’ ‘Chowkidaar’ look (to be worn while sleeping), and even the Congress cap. The cap is long lasting, and can last for generations to come.

3. Let’s Talk Tee

Now that your accessories are taken care of, how about a t-shirt where you can literally wear your political inclination on your sleeves? Pick from a varied number of styles, from AAP (it’s the new thing after GAP), to NaMo Again.

While you can literally pick whatever you want in a democracy, one thing I can say for sure is that if you post about a t-shirt wearing the latter, you will be spared the trolling on Twitter.

But here’s what I really recommend. Instead of going for one brand, try mixing and matching. Have space for everyone. Because that’s what a healthy democracy looks like.

And guys, even though literally, this election season, you can pick whichever of these styles you want. But remember, that these items come with a strictly no exchange policy. So please pick wisely!
