Amidst the Mediterranean fruity aromas of Figue's namesake candles, customers were personally styled by Maithili Ahluwalia herself while being offered wine and Pellegrino by handsome black-clad servers. Crunchy chickpeas, nuts, fruit, and an arrangement of cheese were presented for guests as they shopped Bungalow 8's vibrant, yet ethereal designs, colorful scarves, and chunky accessories. Inspired by traditional Mumbai fashion with a modern twist, Bungalow 8's pieces fit flawlessly into Figue's aesthetic. As the ultimate in boho-chic, Figue's embellished military jackets, vibrant Mochlla bags, and shell-trimmed dresses took shoppers to a paradise far away from the corner of Elizabeth and Houston.
