Style Bazaar’s second edition pop-up in the city is a curated collection of apparel, skincare, and accessories. Taking a detour from the staple pastel shades, anti-fit silhouettes and heavily embroidered saris, Sheetal Jain tells us that vivid teeshirt dresses, monofilament silk saris and upcycled clothing are just the things the city needs going into summer. “We have curated a selection of 60 designers and will be showcasing a plethora of designer wear from prêt garments and fashion accessories to customised body care products,” Sheetal says. With the entire line of designers making their way to the city for the first time, expect to find handmade personal care products from Chennai-based Bottled Bliss and Indigo and hand-blocked designer garments and running fabrics from the century-old Jaipur-based label Vasanthi among others.
