Mystique Creations

We are located at No. 202 in the Gauri Vandan building, which is over at 123 Shivajinagar. It’s a busy part of the city, and finding a parking spot near us is almost impossible. Our space is up on the second floor. It is more of a studio than a shop where people walk in off the street. We have heaps of fabric and half-finished garments draped over every available surface. The name Mystique Creations makes it sound like we are doing something magical, but it’s really just a lot of measuring and pinning. There is a small balcony where we keep some plants that we always forget to water. The light is actually quite good during the day, which helps with the stitching. We have an old iron that takes forever to heat up, but it works better than the new ones we tried. It’s usually just two or three of us in here, and we talk while we work to keep the time passing. The hallway outside is always a bit dim and smells like the cooking from the apartment next door. We keep our supplies in plastic bins stacked against the wall. It’s a bit of a mess, but we know exactly where the blue thread or the heavy scissors are hiding.
