Reviews
"[I]nteresting, thought-provoking, and insightful. The volume also points us towards interesting possibilities for future cross-disciplinary research collaborations. And it underscores that the relationship between individuals and their sartorial choices is not as straightforward as we might think. Neither is the connection between fashion designers and stylists and their choices regarding both their products and their markets." -- South Asian Diaspora "This book is a much-needed addition to the shelves of anyone interested in South Asia, fashion and/or youth culture. A methodology that builds from ethnology and focuses on South Asia, rather than simply on India, is a welcome change, given how easily the smaller countries and cultures on the margins are excluded from such discussion." --Deepsikha Chatterjee, International Quarterly for Asian Studies, [I]nteresting, thought-provoking, and insightful. The volume also points us towards interesting possibilities for future cross-disciplinary research collaborations. And it underscores that the relationship between individuals and their sartorial choices is not as straightforward as we might think. Neither is the connection between fashion designers and stylists and their choices regarding both their products and their markets.

Synopsis
For South Asia, fashion and consumption have come to play an increasingly important role in the lives of young people and in the formation of youth cultures. Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka have all, in related and distinctive ways, been producing confident young fashion consumers, who are proving to be an important market for fashion.This book explores South Asian youth cultures and fashion across the countries of this region and their diasporas from a transnational perspective. Through visual and textual analysis of film, photography and digital cultures, as well as ethnographic fieldwork, the expert contributors look at how gender, sexuality, class, the media and faith intersect with and style youth cultures. By establishing the heterogeneous nature of South Asia and its youth cultures, they also dismantle grand western narratives that tend to understand the region's diverse cultural modernity through the lens of homogeneity.
