NappaDori to close New Delhi flagship

Leather goods and accessories brand NappaDori has decided to close its inaugural flagship store in HauzKhas, New Delhi following what the brand describes as a “tough year”.It was the brand’s first store and one of its favorite locations and anchor to show its humble beginnings.

The brand has a flagship store in London, UK, which is currently closed due to the ongoing nationwide lockdown in the country. NappaDori also has six other flagship stores across India including in Mumbai, Gurugram, and a destination store in the Maldives as well as a dedicated e-commerce store.

National Institute of Fashion Technology graduate GautamSinha launched NappaDori in 2010. The brand’s name means ‘leather and thread’ and Sinha launched the label with the aim of disrupting the accessories market with an offering that mixes traditional Indian leather craft and a global aesthetic.
