With festivals round the corner, this is the time to go on heavy-duty shopping spree. There is a range of attractive offers, discounts and special collections all around and shops and malls have eagerly thrown open their doors. Right from jewellery showrooms to big malls, the enthusiastic crowd is making a beeline for their favourite shops.

Though more outlets pop up the textile boom in the city still it shows no signs of fizzling out. More players have entered the fray and by the looks of it, there’s enough pie for all the tycoons to sink their teeth into. And with festivals lined up in the coming months, the market is gleaming with special offers and new collections. Want to sail with the wave? Just go ahead and splurge for, the offers and collections are plenty and quite enticing too!

Nalli Silks, a showroom synonymous with silk sarees, has introduced a wide range of sarees for all occasions. The collection includes kancheevaram, dharmavaram, pochampalli, gadwall, arni, Coimbatore silk, Mysore silk, crepes and chiffons. The showroom also showcases designer sarees and an enticing range of cotton sarees. The highlight for the festive season is, however, the fresh stocks of the elegant and classic kanjeevaram pattu.

CMR Shopping Mall has brought in fresh collections for the festive season at ‘rock bottom prices’. A wide range of silk and fancy sarees, dress material, chudidars, men’s suiting and shirting and kid’s readymade garments has been introduced for the season.

Glittering jewellery

In the jewellery section, several variations in designs and shapes have come up in tune with the current trends in the fashion industry. And the jewellery showrooms are shining with their new collections of the coveted ‘yellow metal’. While lightweight jewellery has caught the fancy of youngsters, elaborate designs on gold and precious stones still remain the hot favourite, especially in weddings and festivals.

Tanishq has announced the 22K=23K exchange offer on gold jewellery. The offer extends an opportunity to exchange your old gold jewellery to jewellery worth a karat extra. For instance, if you want to exchange 18K jewellery, it will be valued at 23K. A 5 per cent discount is also offered on diamond jewellery purchased in exchange of gold jewellery.
