On a not so fateful evening, the government banned 52 Chinese Apps, Shein being one of them. While we miss Shein and its amazing flash sales, we are more than happy to discover other shopping sites that not only offer a wide variety of trendy womenswear, but also make it affordable and accessible.


Here are our favorite Websites for you:

Myntra

Another brand that doesn’t need an introduction, or explanation about how it is a perfect substitute for Shein. Curated looks, a variety of great local and foreign brands, great offers and guaranteed authenticity, Myntra gives us no reason to complain. Beauty and personal care are both there, so you can practically put together an entire look.

Koovs

From curated lookbooks such as ‘Zoom Outfitting 101′,’ Street to Sofa Style’,’ Tropical Holiday Look’ to à la carte, take your pick from Koovs’ most trendy range of womenswear. Skirts, jeans, shirts, cardigans, pullovers, bathing suits, beachwear, jewellery, bags, accessories – all of them can be found here. Their streetwear range is the trendiest! The line-up of the brand is a combination of household names such as Reebok, Nike, Fila and Koovs’ own merchant line, so there’s something for everyone here. This website can certainly be trusted for having the juice on the latest trends and putting your own look together!

Ewa Young

This brand, a favorite among young adults, offers limited but exclusive pieces of clothing. The designs are new and the fabrics are suitable for the weather in India. The tagline says,’ Handcrafted in India with love. Designed in the UK’. In terms of standing out from the crowd, while the limited range provides value, there is no return policy, so make sure you read all the terms and conditions. Co-ord sets, crop top sets, statement crop tops, tops and bottoms are included in the series.

Ajio

Another well-known website that offers enough to make you as picky as you want. Womenswear, accessories, bags and jewellery, along with merchandise is exclusively available on Ajio, from popular Indian and international brands. It is enticing to see Ajio’s own product line that includes everything from sarees, stoles, scarves, jeans, footwear, shirts and more. Personally, we love their Indie Picks section, but from their blogs, you can absolutely curate your own look or draw inspiration.
