Denim Capris

Delhi ultimate fashion mantra

The year 2009 has brought with itself the new and highly evolved face of fashion. Delhi is rightfully considered the fashion capital of the country with the glitz and glamour oozing from the young and the restless. The interesting bit about Delhi’s fashion phenomenon is the fact that people here, comfortably team up a Benetton skirt with a blouse brought off the Sarojini Nagar market or Allen Solly pants with formal stilettos picked up from the GK M-block street shops.

Pity, street fashion for men has still not evolved with as much gusto. The women in Delhi swear by largely three markets to fulfill the street fashion urge–Sarojini Nagar, Janpath and GK M block market.

Janpath—Spring/Summer collection
The Janpath clothes market situated in the heart of the city attracts crowd in thousands. On a weekend one is witness to people shopping like there’s no tomorrow barely leaving any elbow room. This summer’s fashion trends are big, bold, loud and proud. Janpath sports the new look of fashion with drawstring capris in interesting fabrics like cotton and chiffon and prints varying from checks to paisleys.

These capris are comfortable, chic and can be used with a casual T-shirt for regular/comfortable wear or can be teamed up with a sexy halter-neck blouse or a tube top for hitting the disco and making a statement. A lot of interesting accessories like belts, ear rings, ‘kamarbandhs’, bangles can also be brought off Janpath. Sadly, the shoes are not recommended and the bags are high priced. The jholas however are still in fashion and are available in plenty.

Sarojini Nagar—short and hot
This market is known for its quantity of useful apparels and its affordability. Though one might get a tad bit disappointed at the collection this summer as most of the stuff seems the same as last year’s. However if one has the perseverance, shopping for those summer essentials like vests, singlets, tube tops, denim capris and some skirts in bright florals and whites might be satisfactorily accomplished. What one will find in abundance at this time of the year here, are shorts in various prints and lengths.

Hot pants and shorts are this year’s denims or skirts! These shorts or hot pants can be teamed with a formal white shirt, a slinky belt and front-closed heels to stand out in fashion. However, one does run the risk of ending up looking wannanbe if they are not used with the right top and shoes. So take care when you put on those shorts as they are not great in themselves and will require the innovation and experimentation.

GK M-Block Market—‘Shoe’d I buy them?
Unlike Sarojini Nagar and Janpath, the GK M-block market is totally fantastic for shoes. This year the collection of flats in reds, yellows, purple is a must have. They are comfortable and can be used with salwar-kurtas or even denims or capris. Heels are totally in fashion this season and this market has the sassiest collection of closed and front opened heels that so stand out. The quality of clothes and their pattern in this market is more upbeat than the others.

Though most of the shops here have the same stock of tops and shirts, they are wearable and hip nevertheless. Baloon tops, cowl necks, off-shoulders, noodle straps are in abundance. A lot of typical party wear can also be spotted which are slightly on the steep side however a lot less than their branded counterparts. This market is highly recommended this summer to look young, hip, fashionable and relevant. All in all, street fashion rocks. So, gals go and shop this summer.
