Desi Paradox
Desi Paradox is a bold streetwear collection that collides South Asian tradition with Toronto’s underground energy, reimagining cultural symbols through neon-pop, graffiti, and layered aesthetics. Incorporating a punk element, the collection explores the contradictions of diasporic identity, sacred and rebellious, nostalgic and futuristic, Desi and global. Each piece is designed as a wearable paradox, celebrating queer expression, cultural memory, and the refusal to conform.
