With the release of his fourth studio album, Zayn Malik is basking in renewed attention and acclaim. As the spotlight intensifies on the artist behind “Room Under the Stairs,” Malik is embracing the limelight with impeccable style. A fan’s Instagram Story has captured public interest, showcasing Zayn’s choice in fashion.
According to the shared Instagram Story, Zayn was spotted wearing a hoodie from Rastah’s archive. This hoodie exemplifies the brand’s unique blend of contemporary streetwear with traditional South Asian motifs, marked by its vibrant and culturally rich block print on a black backdrop, embodying Rastah’s philosophy of marrying heritage with modern trends.
The hoodie is intricately adorned with various embroidered patches, presenting a tapestry of animals, birds, and mythical figures that narrate stories of Pakistani folklore and artistry. The base black fabric is punctuated by red florals, making the colorful motifs pop, and highlighting the garment’s artistic and cultural relevance. Established in 2018, Rastah has quickly become a beacon of cultural synthesis and fashion innovation, attracting a diverse and glamorous clientele from around the globe.
Recently, Hollywood’s Timothée Chalamet was seen in Los Angeles in a cozy brown Rastah sweatshirt, complemented by matching attire and a simple gold chain, signifying his taste for the brand’s aesthetic. Bollywood icon Anil Kapoor also showcased his preference for the label, wearing a ‘Hand-woven Dot Jacket’ at the “Animal” premiere in Mumbai, which, according to Rastah’s site, represents themes of surveillance and privacy in today’s digital world. Adding to the celebrity endorsements, Justin Bieber was recently spotted in a striking pink Rastah shirt adorned with hand-embroidered white flowers, part of their Volume 10 collection, further cementing the brand’s status in high-profile fashion circles.
