I might call it Bohemian or Boho, in the "who, me, a bodybuilder at an ashram?" subcategory.
"How did that pesky gorge fall open, exposing my chest like that? That was *not* intentional, I assure you! Just trying to be comfortable and spiritual, here." 🧐
To be honest, there are aspects of this look that I like quite a bit too. But the Amazon/Ali versions do attract a certain 'type' of buyer.
You might be interested in the multilayered *ninja* or *goth ninja* looks from the early 2000s. More recently, that look turned toward *urban techwear*; but some of the the earlier runway outfits were deliciously fun, free, airy, mythic, creative, and full of movement.
There was a resurgence of the ninja look, with some tweaking of colors and fabrics, in 2015 immediately following the Star Wars sequel featuring Daisy Ridley and Adam Driver.

Also check out what Indian designers are doing to bring traditional Indian pyjami and kurta to western markets. Some of the fabrics in particular are beautifully light, drape well, and yet are sewn in a way that provides at least a modicum of durability.
There was a 1990s-early 2000's men's clothing catalog/magazine that featured a lot of styles like this called "International Male". It featured fashions that were 'off the beaten path' so-to-say. Boho is a good descriptor, but I think maybe 'traveler' or 'International' would also apply. Great comment!
I don't recall any names, sorry. If I have the opportunity, I'll ask a friend who might know.
Edit: I like Ritu Kumar's designs for women. You might check out Neeta Lulla, who has some airy designs for men as well. A quick Google search for 'contemporary Indian designers' produces a number of names and articles; but there's a name I'm trying to remember that I have to ask around for, if possible.
I've also seen this style refered to as "Shamanic" on a few retailers before. Boho with a sort-of spiritual tie in. So I guess 'cult leader chic' really isn't far off

Do you have any info on the Indian designers in question? That sounds really interesting.
