Rex Fashions

You can find Rex Fashions on Luz Church Road. We actually use the spaces at 39 and 24, so we are a bit spread out. Luz Church Road is a major spot in Chennai, so there is always a lot of traffic and people walking by on their way to the temple or the nearby shops. We have been selling clothes and fashion items here for a long time. It’s a local business, so we know a lot of the families who live in the neighborhood. The shop isn't like those fancy boutiques you see in the malls. We have racks of clothes and piles of fabric that people can browse through. It’s a bit cramped when it gets busy, especially on the weekends. We don't have a big mission statement; we just try to keep things that people want to wear. The staff is just a few of us who have been working together for years. We spend our time folding clothes, helping people find the right size, and chatting with the regulars. Sometimes the electricity goes out and we have to use the generator, which is noisy, but we just keep going. It’s a very normal, everyday kind of place. We open up in the morning, deal with the deliveries, and stay open until the evening rush is over. It’s a lot of standing on your feet, but we like the atmosphere of Luz.
