Shopping in Delhi :: Part I - By N. P. Design Studio


             A first time visitor to New Delhi interested in hunting around for some interesting fabrics be it either printed or woven, can find himself in big confusion, for he is already short of time and there are far too many stores that he will have to explore before he finds what he needs. 

           So we thought that it will be a good idea to put up in my blog the filtrate of our years of fabric hunting through the stores and bazaars of New Delhi. Hence here is our first post from this series that we will gradually keep posting as well as updating with time. In this post we are providing details about the shops that are at least worth a visit. 

 
               To help you further narrow down the list as per your requirements and time constraints we are also providing a brief review about each store as well as rating them on a scale of 1 to 5. For rating the shops we have taken into account the following factors –
- Amiableness and cooperativeness of the staff & management.
- Freshness & trendiness of the fabrics / designs.
- Variety in designs.
- Well planned space for easy movement & selection.
- Proper categorization in display ( color / theme / quality etc. ).
