Linking Road Market: The Only Cheat Sheet You Need To Shop Here!
Best Things To Buy At Linking Road
Edgy And Chic Skirts – INR 500 Onwards
Skirts, in our opinion, are one of the most versatile garments. The flow and the print can completely change your look, and this street has a variety of styles you can play with. From chic knitted skirts (INR 500 onwards) which are perfect for both formal and casual outings to long printed skirts (INR 800 onwards) with a lot of volume because of their foamy fabric can give you a very cute look. Pick your prints as per your choice, be it classy or gaudy.
Short And Long Dresses
The collection of dresses they host are chic and set a statement. From formal wear to party wear, they have many great options that start at reasonable prices.
Price: INR 500 onwards
LBB Tip: Some sellers might give prices from INR 1000, so be sure to bargain hard.
Ethnic Wear
Though it is not common to buy ethnic wear at Linking Road street, they host an impressive collection of festive wear dresses that’d look so good if you're attending maybe an office event or want to simply dress up. Make sure you get the right fit so it looks good on you.
Price: INR 600 onwards
Denim Dress And Skirts
If you are up to bring some street into your wardrobe, Linking Road has a collection that will not disappoint. They have a huge collection of denims, in the form of jeans, skirts, and jackets. I also spotted some cool denim dresses that’d look great with some sneakers.
Price: INR 350 onwards
Korean Tops
Korean tops never go out of style and Linking Road market has it all. They are petite, cute and can do wonders if teamed perfectly with the right skirt or trouser. We also came across this collection of crop tops of soft felt fabric which had a velvety touch. They also have a wide variety of tops in solids and prints.
Price: INR 350 onwards
Night Suits
We came across a decent collection of night suits and PJs that looked super comfy. Different kinds of prints and both the quality and style kind of left an impression on us.
Price: INR 300 onwards
Metal Cuffs
You can wear them with full sleeves tops or pair them with spaghetti and ethnic long skirts. Metal cuffs at Linking Road are versatile, stylish and under budget. You’ll see a lot of them with the jewellery vendors who move around the street with their cart, or even the small shops at the edge of the lane. Add some bold metal to your wardrobe to make things edgy.
Price: INR 100 Onwards
Statement Earrings & Chunky Pendants
Apart from the jewellery vendors who scurry up and down the road, there are a few jewellery shops at the beginning of the lane that’ll catch your attention. Rummage through their collection and you’ll find yourself with some bold statement earrings and chunky pendants that are too perfect to not buy.
Price: INR 100 onwards
Footwear – INR 200 Onwards
If you are putting together an outfit, do not leave the market without completing your look with the perfect footwear that goes along with it. You'll find a variety of options from shoes to flats and even wedges. Go through the shops right at the beginning of the road, in front of KFC and explore the entire lane.
How To Reach
The market is located on a lane known as Linking Road. There is no parking, so we recommend coming here by public transport only. Khar Road and Bandra are the nearest railway stations. Get off there and take an auto directly to this location. Every auto driver knows where the Linking Road Market is.
Timings: 11 AM to 9 PM (get here on a weekday around 2-3 PM to get less crowd)
LBB Tip
Your food scene here is pretty much sorted as Bandra is known for its eateries. You can go to KFC, Burger King, or Pizza Hut for a quick bite. But if you're planning for a fancy lunch or dinner, visit Bastian or Izumi. They are all at walking distance only.
