What Makes It Awesome

Lets admit that our wardrobe's always in the need of traditional, or indo-western looks. Because there's never an end to festivities. So we have something from SoBo that we're sure you'll love. Vintage Almari at Nepean Sea Road should definitely be on your go-to list for their beautiful contemporary clothing and handcrafted jewellery. The shop flaunts two fantastic labels - Jajobaa by Jyoti Garodia, that houses kalidaar kurtas, jumpsuits in Maheshwari Silk,  and much more. The other section of the store has the most elegant spread of jewellery by Hetal Shah. The store's pure shopping goals if you have an upcoming wedding or a party to go to.

You will find yourself lost in a wide collection of tunics, kalidar kurta drapes, and many other stylish outfits like dhotis and jumpsuits too. Their strength however lies in semi-formal traditional fusion clothing (the drapes are western, but the fabric is Indian). Although their collection ranges from casual to semi-formal to Indo-western fusion, all the clothes are made of Indian fabrics like Banarasi and Chanderi. The line is classic and elegant and can be worn by all age groups. The clothes start from INR 6,000 and can go up to INR 15,000.

Their impressive collection of in-house, handcrafted jewellery has a variety that'll make you a victim of impulsive shopping.  There are bracelets, neckpieces with chokers, earrings, maang-tikas, and rings that are all nickel-free (don't worry about those rashes or allergies now) and can be worn with any outfit. The range starts from INR 3,000 and can go up to INR 10,000. 

Pro-Tip

What you MUST get your hands on are the Maheshwari silk jumpsuits, and maybe club them with a quirky gold bracelet.
