Delhi's high-end shopping haven

Word to the wise: If you're keen to flex some serious plastic, register for the complementary 'hands free shopping services' and have your shopping bags carried by the bell boys.

Love it or hate it, DLF Emporio is New Delhi's glitziest mall. Ground zero for high fashion, big spenders flock here to buy up fabulous - if slightly predictable - luxury labels such as Armani, DKNY, Dior, Burberry, Versace and Jimmy Choo. Thankfully, some of India's top fashion houses have outlets here too; expect smart boutiques stocked with threads by Tarun Tahiliani, Rina Dhaka, Satya Paul and Manish Arora.

To match the high-end shopping there are plenty of good dining options at DLF. Between the casual cafes and terrace restaurants, re-fuelling is a cinch. Take a taxi/auto here from Chattarpur or Hauz Khaz metro stations.
