5th feb Art and Fashion

5th feb 2012

Went to three markets: Sarojini nagar Market, Dilli Hart and Lajpat nagar market.

i Think khoj has given us funds to do some shopping.

Sarojini nagar looks like fashion street of Bombay but it isnt - In bombay too it has changed, in the 90's it was more exciting - there where no plastic shops or bartan shops at that time. but now in fashion street too it is fashionable to keep plastic dubbas.
Here in delhi i couldnt see much of export rejects - it was too much of chamkila salwar kurtas, between vegies and plastic. 

Dilli Hart - had Rajesthani food. shopping is always great. Kashmiri stuff is happening now. but ended up doing some shopping for the project. and felt quite happy. i too like the ethnic and exotic stuff. 

Lajpat nagar- i just remember noise and crowd and full of gadbad - exactly like the Mangalore Gadbag ice cream. the only thing which was bought was a 25mt white nada by Faseeh. Faseeh was quite attracted to these white nadas in all the three markets which he ultimately owned it in lajpat nagar. 

Frankly speaking the market or the galies around khidki village have good tailors and sp found one good leather jacket maker. he is also a designer.




 oh i forgot to mention on the 3rd of feb we went to an opening of a boutique called common room and with all fancy expensive dresses, jeweleries and bollywood tadka on trays photo frames there was a very intense expressionless performance. this was all in the new adda of the fashion world - Shahpurjat.
