This weekend, participate in a fashion quiz to find out if you can tell a Gucci from Gabbana

Presented by Gaysi, an online space for the desi queer community, in association with Imbesharam.com, the fifth edition of Can You Repeat The Question Please will judge you on all things fashion. “As fans of trivia nights ourselves, we decided to host ones inspired by queer culture. Each trivia night has a different theme.

This time, we chose fashion because the gay community loves their fashion divas,” says Anuja Parikh of Team Gaysi, which has previously hosted quiz nights on Game Of Thrones, Queer Cinema and Queer Musicians. “We have been hosting these for two years and get a decent crowd of 80 participants for each event,” she informs.

While the Gaysi team has curated the questions in-house, the quizmaster for the evening is RJ Rohini Ramnathan. With participation open to all, each team can include a minimum of three and maximum of five members. The event will also feature a Singles Question Round.
