Over the years, as the Punjabi diaspora community grew, a new generation of musicians began mixing modern hip-hop sounds with elements of traditional Punjabi aesthetics.Their distinct style lexicon - of gold chains, faux fur jackets, plus-sized accessories, braids and beards - went on to spawn media articles, books and doctoral theses on South Asian culture.

The coin dropped instantly back home in Punjab, which absorbed logo fashion like a sponge when luxury brands arrived in the 2000s. For Punjabis - who are largely a farming community - it was an aspirational uprising, symbolic of how success and prosperity should look."It symbolised the movement of the Punjabi identity from a farmer to a global consumer," says acclaimed singer Rabbi Shergill.Arguing that performers, like everyone else, are a product of their times, Shergill says these impulses are "a response to the hyper capitalist world".

Curiously, the style game of Punjabi musicians - from hip-hop, R&B, bhangra pop, fusion, Punjabi rap, reggae or filmy music - has also remained rooted and androgynous, instead of being hyper masculine.A pop star may wear Balenciaga or Indian designer Manish Malhotra's opulent creations; perform anywhere from Ludhiana city to London; dance with Beyonce around Dubai's Burj Khalifa, atop a luxury car, or in a British mansion - but they always wear their Punjabi identity on their sleeves.

Dosanjh underlined this clearly with his maharajah look at the Met Gala. "It's like the popularity of his androgynous style was waiting to happen," Pande says.

The composite impact of this trend on emerging artists is unmissable today in Punjab.At least 300 people detained were suspected of possessing fireworks and causing disorder, Paris police said.

"Troublemakers on the Champs-Elysees were looking to create incidents and repeatedly came into contact with police by throwing large fireworks and other objects," police said in a statement.Riot police reportedly used a water cannon to stop a crowd reaching the Arc de Triomphe, and fired tear gas into the crowds.

Other clashes between police and crowds occurred on the Paris ring road. At least two cars were torched near the Parc des Princes.French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau took a hard line against the disorder, writing on social media: "True PSG supporters are enjoying their team's magnificent match.
