What Makes It Awesome

It's such a blessing to have Makhija Emporium in the neighbourhood as otherwise, I would have had to visit Laxmi Nagar every time I needed cloth material for tailoring. They have a huge variety of printed material ranging from what can be used for daily wear to fancy fabrics for that special party dress. From printed cotton to brocades and a stock of boutique items, this store has it all. Makhija, the owner, also has a range of sarees to offer, starting at INR 250 for a polyester saree, INR 500 for a cotton one, the range goes all the way up to INR 1,000 depending on the fabric and style. The price for printed material starts at INR 120 a meter for cotton cloth and goes upwards from there. 

if you think that's all, you are wrong. Other than the gorgeous sarees and fabrics, you can find some stunning dupattas here. Starting at INR 140 for a polyester georgette dupatta, the range available is {good} crazy. You can even get your dupatta{s} dyed here for just as little as INR 30 for a colour, get the pico done for an extra INR 10.

Though he has saree falls to offer as well, he doesn't have any arrangement to get it done.

This store is a one-stop shop for all my cloth and tailoring needs.

Naaem masterji, the tailor right outside Makhija's cloth shop has been working for almost 30 years now. He charges INR 350 for a plain suit and INR 850 for the one with full lining, INR 250 for a plain blouse and an extra INR 100 for the lining. He takes at least a week or more to finish the work. Although I have not got anything tailored from him yet, I hear the fitting is better than other tailors.

How Much Did It Cost?

INR 500 - INR 1,000
