From conceptual saris in neon colours to drapes for different occasions, Aliyana by Meena Bazaar, the recently inaugurate­d store at Sector-17 in Chandigarh promises to be a satisfying and enriching shopping experience for the fairer sex. A high-end designer boutique spread over 5,000 sq ft encompasse­s the best in designer lehengas, suits, evening gowns and unstitched fabrics.

Besides clothes, the place also showcases a whole range of matching accessorie­s. Including handbags, shawls and stoles. Aliyana, which is the first of its kind in north India, displays creations by over 50 designers from Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi, Jaipur and elsewhere, who are exclu- sively working for the brand. “Aliyana offers stuff crafted by a bunch of young, exceptiona­lly talented creative team of dynamic designers, well-versed in the art of styling,” says Rajnish Jain of Meena Bazaar.
