There can never be too many clothes in a woman’s wardrobe. An upmarket retail clothes and shoe shop, The Outlet, opened on 35th Street, Tauheed Commercial, last month. The Karachi shop has on display designer apparel and footwear at affordable prices (ranging from Rs.1,200 to Rs.7,000). It also stocks dresses in chiffon, silk, cotton and georgette with stunning designs and sharp defining cuts and, additionally, ensembles with a funky twist. Its designs combine city chic with comfort. What will strike shoppers is the perfect blend of bright and subtle colours, displaying a good aesthetic sense. Long, silk sleeveless shirts with dramatic prints and hot halter necks lend glamour to The Outlet. The cotton outfits are perfect for the scorching summers ahead and the silks, chiffons and georgettes are ideal for an evening out.

The Outlet also offers sandals and slippers in appealing colours, with straps and glittering gems. Casual, funky and sophisticated flats with bows and flowers are also part of the collection. The shop’s location on Tauheed, which isn’t inundated with boutiques, gives the shop a distinct advantage.
