Textiles and Fabric at Mangaldas Market

The wholesale cloth market at Kalbadevi, named for Sir Mangaldas Nathubhoy (1832–1890), cotton merchant and head of the Kapol Bania community. Hundreds of shops selling fabric by the metre — cotton, silk, linen, georgette, dress material and dupattas — to tailors, boutiques and traders across India.

Mangaldas is where Mumbai buys cloth by the metre. The shops are numbered, the lanes are narrow, and the stock runs from block-printed cotton and handloom to pure silk, linen, georgette and chiffon, with dress material and dupattas in the lanes behind. Tailors, boutiques and traders from across India buy here; so does anyone getting a wedding outfit made.

The houses below were named in editorial fabric guides with their shop numbers. There are several hundred more; the way to use the market is to walk the lanes with a sample and ask.
