I say designer, you think expensive. I say studio, you think arty.
What if I say designer wear clothes and jewellery can also be available at costs that don’t leave a gaping hole in your pocket. Does that make you want to read more? Sumi Paul, started a multi-designer studio and aptly named it ‘Being Different’ for precisely this reason. Making daily wear clothing designer styled, chic, and trendy. A Masters in Bengali Literature, it was sheer 'passion for fashion,' as she says that brought her into this industry.
‘Being Different’ offers a platform to upcoming and well-established designers to showcase their works. “We want to encourage new and out of the box designers but are also very selective about who we shortlist and showcase at the store as we want to offer only the best to our clients,” said Sumi.
Being Different stands apart from other stores with its wide range of selection in clothing, home furnishing, and jewellery all within an affordable range and premium quality.
Price range:
Smart casuals starting from Rs. 2000/- upto Rs. 45,000/-
Jewellery starting from Rs. 350/- upto Rs. 3000/-
One of the studio’s USP is their association with designers who are not currently showcasing their work in Gurgaon and work with Indian fabrics towards solving daily working needs of clients keeping in mind the pricing.
The studio currently hosts designers such as:
Paromita Banerjee
Dhora
Rajat and Shradha
Joyee Uttam
Woven Tree
Ritu Kedia
Nandini Officiel
We, at GurgaonMoms caught up with designer Nandini of Nandini Officiel. Nandini Officiel is a brand that is the brain-child of two college buddies Sonal Jain and Nandini Chawla Dewan, both of whom love jewellery. While there is no formal training in designing, it is their love for all things beautiful and bespoke that steered them into the field of jewellery sourcing, designing, and curating. One can find jewellery starting from Rs. 350 and going upto Rs. 3000 in their collection. They also undertake bridal couture jewellery.
Being 9 months young, Being Different is brimming with ideas and innovations. “We intend to hold trunk sales, end of season sales, set up flea-markets, to encourage people to come into the studio and get a feel of the space we have created,” says Sumi.
What are you waiting for? 'Being Different' is putting together a trunk show on the 6th and 7th of February, 2016. This will bring various designers together showcasing the best that they have to offer at never seen prices before. Be sure to let us, at GurgaonMoms know what you picked up.
