<p>Colaba's quirky and contemporary fashion store folds up to graduate to a global arena; insiders say bridal market hegemony hurt it</p>

Bombay Electric in Colaba shutters this Friday
Bombay Electric (BE), the relatively young (it opened only 10 years ago) designer store will pull down the shutter on its Colaba location on April 29 and move to London. The store stocked contemporary Indian fashion designers with a brave and global aesthetic including names like Miu Niku, Manish Arora and Little Shilpa; as well as vintage and quaint accessories picked up from travels to faraway lands. By this, it distinguished itself from the costume-y elegance of Ensemble and the Indian prêt-focussed Ogaan, located around the same neighbourhood.
