Highlights and tidbits of some of the amazing shopping in Mumbai:

Bombay Electric is a distinctly Indian platform for fashion and design known as a pulse point for interchange and dissemination of design ideas.

Located in the bustling heart of Mumbai, the heritage space mirrors the electric energy of the city and represents the most promising talent of India’s fashion, craft, design, and artistic communities. Through intelligent curation of directional Indian fashion and limited edition design collaborations, Bombay Electric offers a fresh perspective into the Subcontinent which never fails to intrigue and inspire.

Bungalow Eight- Mumbai's first concept store, specializes in the most unusual and unconventional Indian-inspired interiors and fashion finds. When it opened in 2003, Bungalow 8 was a retail enigma, challenging conventional practice through its unusual locations, avante garde interiors, lived in displays and local/global product selection. Its uncompromising vision immediately charmed the global style brigade like music icons Sting and Madonna and design luminaries Tom Dixon and Tricia Guild. The only store in India to be labeled as one of the ten best stores in the world by design bible Wallpaper* (UK), Bungalow 8 often finds itself in the company of the biggest and best names both domestically and internationally.

Ahilaya- Love this store right behind the Taj Palace for the most gorgeous hand embroidered kaftans and dresses. I fell in love.
