Sandeep and Sarah Gonsalves founders of the bespoke menswear label SS HOMME have just thrown open a newly refurbished design studio in Mumbai whose design matches the ethos of their elite menswear brand.
As Sandeep explains, “We decided to design the place ourselves to ensure our brand ethos was brought to life within the interiors. Paying attention to each detail and personally designing each element is our way of expressing new-age bespoke to the entire world.”
Sarah adds, “The studio has been customized and designed to create an insightful experience for our patrons. The interiors reflect the anatomy of a bespoke suit for gentlemen.”
The interior of the store is a canvas lit with shades of grey combined with pine and gold accents. Hints of grey marble, velvet and silk have also been incorporated to highlight the different monochromatic textures of the store.
The essence of the design aesthetics of the store lies in the hand drawn elements which depict the various intricacies of menswear, making it a one of its kind boudoir for today’s avant-garde gentlemen. Elegant, decorative yet minimalistic designs and angular silhouettes of the studio interiors bring alive the new-age tailoring.
The piece de resistance of the store is its exclusive Groom’s Lounge space dedicated to wedding garments for the groom and his groomsmen and aims to provide a luxurious wedding shopping experience.
On display are handcrafted heavy embroidered sherwanis, custom designed shawls, accessories, and bandhgalas. Each garment is handcrafted and exclusively tailored. There is also a collection of wedding bespoke suits, sherwanis, bandhgalas in bright colours that celebrate the grandeur of weddings in India.
Various art installations depict the type of fabrics used and the step by step anatomy of the creation of a bespoke garment, adding more of a distinctive, contemporary and futuristic appeal to the entire space.
