Bengal's bustling bazaars

FEBRUARY brings an impressive line-up of pop-ups in Delhi-NCR ranging from Pili Taxi's sustainable lifestyle offerings to Boho Bazaar's flea market. Curator Srila Chatterjee's Baro Market Bengal Bazaar pop has had five editions in Mumbai and is coming to Delhi for the second time.

Chatterjee, the co-founder and curator of Mumbai's famous Baro Market, says this one is close to her heart as it brings offerings from her home state of Bengal, along with some products from Assam. The display will have the best of Bengal's craft and artistry presented through clothing, food, jewellery, accessories and home products. "Our bazaar is tailored for people interested in unique expressions that are typical of Bengal. What we will present is not easily available anywhere else," she says.
