'Western' clothes in Delhi? Bennaton, Warehouse, Top Shop - or similar?

Hi all, just wondered where I can and if I can find shops selling 'western' style clothes - Top Shop kind of style in Delhi? I know they had a Bennaton in Bangalore so thinking it's a possibility.. Thank you!

There are shopping malls in Delhi. You should not have any trouble finding what you want.

Bennaton

I remember there being a Bennaton on Connaught place - had to make a rush buy of jeans to go back home in!

Thanks Nick - I am here!

Will be staying, as last visit, in Paharganj. Not looking for the 'traveller' clothes they have around there so much, much as I like them! A Top Shop would be just great!

Connaught Place not too far from you will have a lot of choice. Since you mentioned Benneton, I think you have one there, too But there will be many others as well.

South extension is about half an hours auto ride from Pahargunj at off peak times.

I dont know of any big shopping malls around Connaught Place, maybe somebody else will know better.

Bennetton etc

Head for Ansal Plaza Shopping Mall in South Delhi, any rickshawwallah should know where it is, will cost around 60rps from Paharganj.

Not sure if the Top Shop in Karol Bagh is the one you and I are thinking of i.e. Flagship store at Oxford Circus, London!

Ansal Plaza, Air-conditioned shops - Bennetton, Marks & Sparks, Sportswear shops, Guess and a few other selling western clothes and my favourite Shoppers Stop - department style store selling Cosmetics ground floor, Western and Indian clothes and Homeware shop - think sort of M&S and John Lewis.

You will find everything you need at Ansal Plaza and will save you treking around!
