Ahilaya has been around for ages, a benchmark for ethnic wear all around. We decided to step into the slightly intimidating boutique store in Colaba, and discovered a collection so dreamy we almost wished it was our wedding.
Ahilaya was founded by Anwar Ahmed Ansari back in 1960s. It is known for its handcrafted chikkankari and zardosi clothing, with beautiful kurtis, long anarkalis and stoles.
The collection is generally a play on your primary colours, the pastels and sometimes with bright colours thrown in for good measure. We like it for its very minimal yet intricate collection, perfect for the sangeet, wedding, or even any traditional festival that's upcoming.
