India's Good Earth
If you're headed to India, then one of your just about mandatory buys should be fabric of any and all types. Good Earth's flagship store, in Mumbai's Raghuvanshi Mills compound, fills its 20,000 square feet with rugs, tablecloths, and curtains, but also dishes, flatware, beauty products, and just about anything else gifty and colorful (it is India, after all). Founded by the socialite Anita Lal, the store thoughtfully includes a wine and snack bar for those who are able to think about curtains only after having had a couple of belts. In addition to the main store, there are also two branches in New Delhi.
