Speaking on the development, Amar Nagaram, CEO, Myntra, said, 

"It is truly exhilarating to witness such a thumping start to our Big Fashion Festival, which has been nothing short of incredible and has surpassed our expectations in every regard. We are confident of this momentum continuing over the next seven days.”

Myntra said the beauty and personal care category topped the charts, with over 190 percent growth on day one of the event as compared to the previous year, followed by accessories and sports apparel, which clocked 80 percent and 75 percent growth, respectively.

"Shopping patterns, particularly the basket size, indicates people’s keenness and zeal for shopping this festive season, coming as it does after a harsh second wave of the pandemic that has now seemingly subsided, bringing with it the hope and positivity that the festive season is set to usher," Myntra said in a statement.

Metro cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, and Tier II and III locations, including Bhubaneswar, Jalandhar, Aizawl, Ajmer, Silcharhi, Bikaner, and Panchkula, led the show on day one, the company said.
