Malini Ahuja, based in GK is someone we love for the sheer variety of outfits she’s executed to perfection. From those pristine, white wedding gowns to pastel-coloured anarkalis, she’s been working with a gifted army of printers, karigars and tailors for almost 25 years. Walk into her space and you’ll be greeted with a rack loaded with Indian wear (lehengas, anarkalis, shararas and the like) and another one with casual and semi-casual (think everyday kurtas and semi-stitched suits). You can pick one of these readymade outfits, or get something completely customised.
Fun Fact: Novelist and founder of The Burlap People, Karuna Ezara Parikh wore one of Malini’s stunning custom-made blouses.
What They Do Well: Her blouses fit like a glove, her evening gowns are on-point and her white-on-white Lucknowi suits are a hit
Prices: INR 5K for blouses, INR 18K onwards for stitched shararas and anarkalis and lehngas for INR 28,000 and upwards
