Among the treasures that really caught our eye are the Vintage Burberry Gloves priced at ₹28,000, a beautiful Blue Flower Hat made of organza flowers and a Swarovski White Tiger Bag adorned with pure crystals for ₹38,000. Apparently, this purse has also graced Radhika and Anant Ambani's pre-wedding bash. Adding to the allure is Gum Boots by Y Project x Melissa, priced at ₹1 Lac. They promise an everlasting fresh scent, enhancing the product's overall appeal and value. Last on this extraordinary lineup are Animal Printed Two-Toned Opera Gloves by Maison Margiela, touted to be among only two ever created.

Here, besides buying you can also rent exclusive pieces for maximum two and a half days. The rental process is designed to be stylishly satisfying—you simply pay a security deposit equivalent to the difference between the purchase and rental price.

The decor takes after the 1900s sprawling heritage building in which the store is located—think aesthetic big wooden windows, wheatish walls, arched corridors and huge mirrors. Meanwhile, the furnishings add a pop of colour and gives the store an edgy yet luxe look. Scroll through the gallery to check out the interiors of the store.
