Fashion trends in New Delhi Vs Bangalore

Delhi and Bangalore are considered to be among the most hep and happening places of India along with few other cities certainly. I am always intrigued by the difference between the two places in terms of fashion trends which is actually huge according to me. Hyderabad is not included in the list as I could not much enjoy my stay in Hyderabad. There would be no mention of cities like Chennai or Pune as I do not have much idea of these places. Ranking that I have added in my blog is per some article that I read sometime back.

Mumbai ranks first in fashion. Dresses of the newly released bollywood movies would be seen worn by ladies as soon as possible or even before the movie releases. At the same time Mumbai is very costly city. Shopkeepers have to keep the trendy clothes per fashion to remain in the business. Not much of my thoughts for this city.

Delhi is an amazing place, barring its extreme climate as is mentioned in a bollywood song ye Delhi ha mere yaar. One night in summer when I did not switch on A.C and decided to sleep only under fan, I found myself sweating. Delhi, supposedly ranks second in fashion. I agree with this research result very much. The fashion moves very fast  here. I visited the same shops last year and found good amount of differently designed dresses this year. Another attraction of Delhi in terms of fashion is, one get dresses currently in fashion at pretty much low costs compared to Bangalore for the same dress. One need not visit malls, Centrals etc. to get them, rather most of them are available at small shops. I am generally hesistant in visiting open market places for no specific reason, but in Delhi with my family I do not have any hesitation.




Ladies are very fast in identifying the current trend including my nieces and implement it much faster. I very much choose my dresses according to the trend and seeing others (copy-cat). The city looks colourful with people wearing colourful dresses especially gals. Whenever I visit Delhi, my shopping spirit is at its peak as I know I would get the latest at the best price. Same is called as Sasta, Sundar, Tikau as slang in Hindi.

Generally taking photographs at these crowded places is prohibited in Delhi, thanks to terrorists! I took permission from these vendors and captured these






I had chance to visit Sarojini Nagar as well, one of the most crowded shopping places of Delhi. No photos allowed, so we just clicked outside the market area.


I did some cool shopping from this market and am very happy.

Feeling is different in Bangalore. I do not know of any shopping places apart from malls, centrals, shopper stop etc. I feel people are not as updated and passionate about changing fashion trends as in Delhi. In fact Bangalore follows Delhi in fashion. Dresses I find now in Delhi would come to Bangalore after few weeks or may be a month or likewise. Brand, Brand and Brand is the only thing that comes to my mind while buying dresses in Bangalore. However I am happy with them too. The article that I read ranked Bangalore to be the third in fashion trends much in accordance with my views.....hehehe...
