Before we walk through the doors of the gallery, one must understand the visionary behind it. Chandrika Desai emerged from the underground circuit of avant-garde fashion in the early 2000s. While her peers chased minimalism and "quiet luxury," Desai embraced the opposite philosophy. She coined the term "Big Style"—a design ethos characterized by exaggerated silhouettes, explosive color palettes, architectural drapery, and a fearless blend of traditional textile heritage with futuristic materials.
In a world that often asks us to shrink, Chandrika Desai asks us to expand. Her gallery is the physical manifesto of that philosophy. So, the next time you find yourself craving inspiration, step into the Big Style and Fashion Gallery. Just be prepared to leave with more than a shopping bag—leave with a bigger vision of who you can become.

While some of the items on display were on the pricier side, I felt that the quality and craftsmanship justified the cost. The gallery also offered some more affordable options, which were still stylish and well-made.
