Kavittras

Whether you’re looking for fabric, lenghas, sarees, salwar suits or children’s Asian clothes; Kavittra’s is a mammoth of a shop that stocks it all. It’s a shame the shop display is obstructed by a table stall that is a permanent fixture of the shop. They sell seasonal products, like candles at Diwali, and display some rolls of fabric here too.
Inside the shop, every inch of wall is covered in clothes displays. The shop is cramped, which is no surprise considering the variety of goods they sell. They specialise in sarees that range from lighter and more casual designs, to heavy and intricately detailed pieces. The price corresponds to this.
I found the lengha styles a little dated and the salwar suits were very mediocre. The rolls of fabric were interesting because they’re not just sets of unstitched suits so you could buy some fabrics individually to design whatever you like.

Now this is a shop worth going to as there are plenty of clothes on offer at cheap prices. They might be cheap value but the clothes are quality and there certainly are some bargains to be had here.
Kavittras sell ladies suits, lahengas, kidswear, suit fabrics as well as saris. I didn’t see much in the way of menswear so that was one aspect of the shop that disappointed me. But like I said earlier this is a shop that is worth going to if you are looking for clothes that are value for money.
There are some very cute dresses for kids and I have to admit I was very tempted to buy a couple for my cousins. My family tend to celebrate many festivals during the year and we do like dressing up for those occasions. The only reason I did not buy those dresses was because I wanted to see what my parents thought of it.
