FALGUNI SHANE PEAСОСК
When Falguni and Shane Peacock decided to open their flagship store at upmarket Banjara Hills in Hyderabad, they relied on Gauri Khan's inimitable ability to walk the fine line between luxury and ostentation. Ivory steps lead into an elegant foyer where classical details, such as marble flooring and wall moulding, are offset by glamorous gold accents. "We want customers to be greeted by a concierge to give them a luxury hotellike experience," Gauri explains. Further along, a glittering chandelier -a Gauri Khan signature-presides over the bridalwear section without upstaging the couture. The trial area is larger than life with a gilt-edged mirror for the bride-to-be and plush, oversized seating for her entourage. The ready-to-wear line gets a dedicated space next to the main store where gilded clothes racks are dotted with playful peacock-green drawers and trunks.

Ballard Estate, the business district where Dubash House lies, built in the Edwardian neoclassical style and Tahiliani spent his childhood years only a few streets away.
