Kempt Man of the Hour: Waris Ahluwalia

Waris Ahluwalia is much more than just the cool Indian guy in the Wes Anderson movies; he’s also a jewelry designer and one of the best-dressed men in town, though people tend to focus on the turban and not his threads.

The other night a Purple magazine Fashion Week party at Paul Sevigny’s crypto-swank Beatrice Inn, his favorite haunt, Waris bowled us over in a bespoke brown, green and burgundy flecked herringbone wool tweed suit with a forest green wool waistcoat and a crimson knitted wool tie: a perfectly balanced and seasonal palette that’s as warming to look upon as it must be to wear.

Ask, and ye shall receive: an extra helping of MOTH star Waris Ahluwalia for your viewing pleasure, that is. Our favorite beturbaned member of the bon ton is pictured here with gal-about-town Jessica Joffe at a Theory party for artist David Ellis the other night.

Good Idea

Tee Ball

The charitable fashion stunt is a well-worn trick, but we still like to watch it play out from time to time. Our current interest is LENY, a limited-edition tee series to benefit (or is it combat?) global warming.

The tees are currently making the rounds, but we’re more impressed by the lineup, which includes Kate Moss, Lapo Elkann, Waris Ahluwalia, and best of all, the lovely Eva Herzigova, at left. It’s enough to make any man green with envy.
