Meet Agou Sitlhou: an artist, model and content creator, self-made in every way. Born and brought up in Manipur, Sitlhou moved to Delhi at the age of 19, aiming to carve a space for himself in the fashion industry. He has more than succeeded.

Known for his avant-garde style, androgynous silhouettes and punk aesthetics, Sitlhou initially worked as a creative director and stylist at Huemn and Two Point Two Studio. In 2021, he became a full-time model and content creator, being recognised for his work by GQ, Cosmopolitan, Grazia and more. In a short span of creating content, Sitlhou has worked with brands like QUOD, Gucci, Christian Louboutin, Westside, VegNonVeg and more.

To Sitlhou, QUOD represents exactly what he stands for: boldness and taking risks. “Fashion is a form of self-expression and I feel empowered in QUOD,” he shares, “QUOD transcends gender and makes me feel strong, bold, fierce and unique. When in QUOD, I feel the most comfortable in my own skin.”

There is nothing that can stop Sitlhou from getting what he wants. Now that he has found success in an industry that is otherwise hard to crack, he aspires to only go higher–and inspire others to do the same.
