Formal wear at The Raymond Shop | Hyderabad

What you see - There are 17 exclusive Raymond Stores in Hyderabad, one of which is located on Road No 1, Banjara Hills within the MidTown building complex opposite Vengal Rao Park. The store is done up aesthetically in beige and glass interiors with wall to wall shelves stocked with suiting fabrics of every quality and some of the best ready-to-wear men’s clothing available in the country. Following the trend of luxury brand stores, the store, like any other Raymond outlet is designed so that customers do not have to depend on shopping assistants to show them fabrics. The shelves are open to customer assessment making it easier and faster for them to make a choice. That is not to say that there are no assistants in the store. The shop assistants are friendly, courteous and very helpful.

What you get – The USP of every Raymond Store is the sheer variety of stitching fabrics available. Shirt materials in mercerized cotton and various cotton blends are there in every conceivable colour, print and style. The same goes for trouser fabric. Suit materials at Raymond stores are made of the best wool and worsted blends. The fabrics are lightweight and yet provide just the right amount of warmth for the Indian climate. 
The ready to wear brands available here include Raymond – the textile division of the brand, Manzoni - a luxury range selling shirts and ties, Color Plus - a premium range brand well known for casual clothes, Park Avenue – one of the best brands in readymade formal clothing for men and Parx – the bard of choice for semi-formal cottons and denims.  A newer entry called Notting Hill, aimed at young working professionals, is also catching up.
The store offers complete wardrobe solution for men. Shirts, jackets, suits, trousers, ties, belts, handkerchiefs and even socks can be availed at the stores. Moreover, the store has its own expert tailors who are adept at stitching all kinds of menswear. Customers can buy fabrics at the store and get the tailors to stitch the clothes in the latest cuts, designs and fits.     
The pricing of the clothes is a bit on the higher side with shirts starting Rs. 999 onwards, trousers starting around Rs. 1200 and jackets from Rs. 3000. However, given that the quality of clothing is truly outstanding, the cost is a small price to pay. 
 
Our verdict – Shopping at the Raymond Store is an experience in luxury. Customers never feel pressurised to buy anything and they are given all the time they want to browse and select clothes.  The store offers gift cards in any denomination with the minimum value being Rs. 100. Member ship cards for regular customers are also available. There is parking facility available within the complex and nearby too.
