Synopsis
Karan Kaur started Style With Kaur on Instagram in March 2014 because she could not find a Sikh woman blogging fashion. Within a month she had over 5,000 followers. Style With Kaur, a Sikhlens documentary directed by Skye Barclay, follows her in Sydney: Gatka as a teenager, the turban full-time from senior year, and people who still ask when she moved to Australia. She was born there.
She puts western silhouettes on Indian fabric. Dream was the first collection: bell sleeves, flared pants, lace, Zardozi. Resort 2018 is relaxed and still covered. Patrick Yeung takes the pictures. Tanya, the henna artist, calls the work modest and a bit revolutionary. A girl hugged her in a gurdwara bathroom and said she wanted to put herself out there too.
