iGrow Reviews: Kitsch – A destination for all luxury lovers

If you happened to cross the busy Defence Colony road on 14 August, it would have been hard to miss the bright yellow light up bungalow on the same lane that houses fashion designers including JJ Valaya, Shantanu & Nikhil, Dolly J and others (soon turning fashion street of Delhi).

The straight-lined bungalow is the new Kitsch store in town and it was the celebration party for the launch of this one of its kind luxury fashion boutique.
