One of the first to put Kochi’s name on the global fashion circuit, Tony Luke, is the epitome of Malayali millennials. Having represented several fashion industry bigwigs including Italian designer label Krizia at the Milan Fashion Week, this 32-year-old’s portfolio now lists a bunch of critically-acclaimed films such as Karma Cartel (2014). “At the moment, I’m shooting for Jeethu Joseph’s Aadhi starring Pranav Mohanlal,” shares the business graduate. As we meet up with the star for a trend forecast, Tony informs us that he finds Kerala ahead of the times when it comes to keeping up with style statements. But, he feels that taking care of oneself should be the top priority at all times. Apart from an occasional visit to the gym, here’s what Tony recommends. FollowTony on Instagram @tonylukekocherry

When asked about accessories, the star was quick to recommend this GMT Sports segment from Graham Chronofighter. “I shot for it and just fell in love with it,” he tells us.

Shady business 
​Any true blue Malayali would cherish aviator glasses from Ray-Ban, due to its association with Spadikam, Mohanlal’s cult classic. Having modelled for them back in the day, Tony thinks that their timeless designs cannot be replaced. Check out its latest iteration in a grey gradient named Aviator Carbon Fibre.`10,390 onwards.Details: india.ray-ban.com  

Tame the mane
When taking a break from styling, Tony prefers to indulge in a rejuvenating keratin-intensive hair routine, which is often followed up with hair gloss. If your hair seems like it is in need of pampering, opt for Professionnel Absolut Repair Lipidium Serum from L’Oreal, as the phyto keratin intensive liquid reconstructs and smoothens damaged hair. `600 onwards.

Regal appeal 
Loafers have been on the top of everyone’s list since the beginning of 2017.
