Imran

Walking into Imran’s studio apartment in Chicago, a city where a suit and tie is a staple wardrobe for every guy, I was immediately drawn to the colorful array of stuffed animals, marvel comic book characters and vintage toys that you only wish you held on to for all these years. Working as a FORD Model and sporting anything Disco (a la Saturday Night Fever), Imran is a far from the typical Chicago trader type.

Best describe your style at home?

Mystical Funk Philosophy, a flowering of disco-soul and eternal child’s play.

What’s your favorite stuffed animal?

It’s hard for me to use the word favorite, but I”m looking right now at my Winnie the Pooh doll. I like him because he reminds me a fat, happy Buddha...
