Next stop … Mumbai Marvels

After a whirlwind trip to Delhi, we arrived in Mumbai.

Formerly known as Bombay, Mumbai is the largest city in India and the capital of Maharashtra state. Mumbai’s nature as the most eclectic and cosmopolitan Indian city is symbolized in the presence of Bollywood all around. With an inebriating mix of all that India has to offer, it is it’s vogue centre of fashion and a designers delight!

Only once the initial shock of Mumbai’s chaos subsides, can you start to appreciate the city’s allure: a wealth of Art Deco buildings; relics; temples; warrens of bazaars and a whole lot of inspiration! Much of our production happens here in Mumbai, transforming my design idea’s into a fashion reality.

I find amazing silks, vintage fabrics and jewelry on my trips to India, all of which take shape in my collections . The colourful markets are one of the reasons I come to Mumbai, the vibrancy of these markets is something I try to capture in each piece within my stores.

Adding to Mumbai’s madness, we continue our onward journey north to Jaipur … the pink city, the crafts capital of India and full of inspiration for our I’m Home range at Roberta Roller Rabbit!
