Sabari Gold & Diamonds, Tiruppur

Designed by Parinamah Architects, the Sabari Gold & Diamonds store in Tiruppur departs from the conventions of high-volume jewellery retail. Inspired by the spatial language of a South Indian Kalyana Mandapam, the store presents just fifteen carefully selected pieces within an intimate setting designed for one-on-one consultations. Curved lime-plastered walls, a monolithic stone table and custom lighting create an atmosphere of quiet focus, while details such as Corten steel artworks and narrative panels draw from temple architecture and regional cultural traditions. The result is a contemplative space centred on craftsmanship, legacy and personal connection.

11.11/ eleven eleven, New Delhi

Located in Lodi Colony, New Delhi, the flagship store of 11.11 / eleven eleven has been designed by co-founder Shani Himanshu in collaboration with their long-time creative partners. Rooted in the brand’s textile-first approach, the space unfolds across three interconnected zones, including a Made-to-Measure studio and a striking indigo passage lined with living dye vats. Natural materials such as bamboo, terracotta, lime and agricultural-waste boards shape the interiors, creating a tactile backdrop for the clothing. Thoughtful details, from handcrafted surfaces to spaces that reveal the dyeing and making process, turn the store into an immersive experience that brings the brand’s craft-led world to life.

Gazal Gupta, New Delhi

Located in the Qutub district of New Delhi, the Gazal Gupta flagship, designed by Aikyum in collaboration with the designer, translates the label’s couture aesthetic into a richly detailed retail atmosphere. The interiors draw on a layered palette of lime-washed surfaces, mirror inlays, brass accents and handcrafted elements, creating a setting that mirrors the intricacy of the garments on display. Arches, curated alcoves and bespoke furnishings guide visitors through the space, while references to Indian craft traditions appear throughout. Rather than acting as a simple backdrop, the store reflects the designer’s expressive approach to fashion, materiality and storytelling.

The Den, Bombay Shirt Company

Set across three floors in Bandra, Mumbai, The Den is Bombay Shirt Company’s flagship destination for menswear, grooming and leisure. The ground level houses the brand’s apparel collections within a restrained palette of wood, stone and brass, while the lower floor pairs clothing with footwear and accessories in a lounge-like setting. The upper level introduces a barber station, coffee bar and gelato counter, creating a space that encourages visitors to spend time rather than simply shop.

Siddhartha Tytler, New Delhi

Designed by P S Design Studio and envisioned by Siddartha, his newly opened flagship in New Delhi rises in the folds of beige, creams and ecru. The store sprawls 1,400 sq ft and remains ever so subtly layered in its design, naturally diverting the sightline to trace the collections and accessories instead. Crafted to accommodate more than a hundred garments and devoid of any dividing screens or walls, the open, uninterrupted layout lets details take prominence through accents of wood and black metal, whose linear, sleek character accentuates the palpable indoor visuals.

Notebook, New Delhi

Conceived as a counterpoint to conventional fashion retail, Notebook, designed by Studio Dashline in Delhi, draws inspiration from the structure of a well-used journal. The store is organised around a sculptural central volume that presents collections and installations, while surrounding display areas encourage visitors to move through the space at an unhurried pace. A palette of lime clay, marble, cobblestone and stainless steel lends texture without distraction, creating an environment that aligns with the brand’s focus on thoughtful clothing for women.

Rishi & Vibhuti, New Delhi

More gallery than conventional boutique, the Rishi & Vibhuti flagship in Chhatarpur unfolds through a sequence of art-led installations, bold surfaces and carefully crafted details. The interiors pair clean architectural forms with bold prints, textured surfaces and brass accents, creating a backdrop that mirrors the contrast between tradition and contemporary fashion found in the label’s collections. Highlights include a dedicated bridal vault and a series of art-led installations that punctuate the space. Conceived as a destination for discovery rather than a conventional boutique, the store offers visitors an insight into the brand’s expressive and detail-oriented design world.

OTT by Tarun Tahiliani, Mumbai

A palette of warm metallic accents, streamlined displays and stunning detailing sets the tone for OTT by Tarun Tahiliani’s first Mumbai store. Designed by Studio Dot, the 1,048 sq ft boutique at Phoenix Palladium is creating a polished setting for the label’s ready-to-wear collections and accessories.

AM:IT, New Delhi

Located at The Dhan Mill in New Delhi, the AM:IT store by Amit Aggarwal translates the fashion label’s design philosophy into a physical setting where craftsmanship and technology intersect. Conceived as more than a retail space, it features custom installations that draw connections between traditional textile techniques and contemporary digital systems. One artwork combines jacquard weaving references with e-waste materials, while another reimagines a vintage Banarasi sari through circuitry-inspired forms. The resulting environment allows fashion, art and material experimentation to exist in conversation, offering visitors a deeper insight into the brand’s evolving identity.

S&N by Shantnu Nikhil, New Delhi

With its pared-back palette and carefully layered textures, the new S&N by Shantnu Nikhil store at The Corridors, Chhatarpur, puts the focus firmly on form and craftsmanship. The 1,405 sq ft space adopts a restrained architectural language, using clean lines, tonal finishes and tactile materials to place the spotlight firmly on the collections. The store serves as a physical expression of the label’s evolving approach to dressing, positioned between couture and ready-to-wear.

SAND, Mumbai

Softened curves, rammed-earth textures and a palette drawn from sand, clay and weathered stone define the first flagship store of SAND by Shirin at Jio World Drive, Mumbai. Designed by Studio Hasta under the direction of Nishil Shah, the space moves away from a conventional retail layout, unfolding through fluid transitions that create a sense of ease and discovery. References to desert landscapes, coastal terrains and Mediterranean architecture emerge through fragmented sandstone flooring, woven surfaces, handcrafted mosaics and stone plinths. A mosaic-clad memory wall and a marble display island add layers of visual interest, while warm, earthy tones provide a calming backdrop for the brand’s apparel, accessories and jewellery collections.

The Gentleman’s Quarter, Bengaluru

Drawing inspiration from the tradition of British tailoring houses, The Gentleman’s Quarter, designed by Studio Goya, layers timber panelling, herringbone flooring and fluted detailing to create a richly textured retail environment. Brass accents and custom joinery bring structure to the displays, while a palette of deep greens and warm wood tones lends the space a sense of quiet sophistication. References to old-world clubrooms appear through plaid textures and comfortable lounge seating that encourage lingering conversations. Balancing classic detailing with contemporary restraint, the boutique feels like a thoughtfully composed private lounge.
