About this episode

Cyrus and Sufi Motiwala discuss fashion criticism, internet fame, and queer identity in a candid conversation.

Welcome to Cyrus Says  In this episode, Cyrus is joined by Sufi Motiwala, one of India’s most viral fashion commentators, for a sharp, funny, and surprisingly personal conversation about fashion criticism, internet fame, Cannes, the Met Gala, queer identity, beauty standards, reality TV drama, and building a voice online.  Sufi opens up about leaving home young, navigating family acceptance, creating a bold online persona, and turning his passion for fashion into a career that now places him at the center of India’s digital style conversation. The episode also dives into Anna Wintour, Karan Johar, Met Gala looks, influencer culture, Traitors drama, trolling, hairline insecurity, and what it really takes to stand out in fashion media today.  Smart, chaotic, candid, and deeply entertaining, this is Sufi at full power.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
