5 Tips For Buying Eid Clothes At The Bazaar So That It Doesn't Waste Time

JAKARTA - Approaching Lebaran, visiting Muslim fashion bazaars has become commonplace for many people. In addition to offering many choices, bazaars also often provide a more affordable price compared to boutiques or online stores.

However, without careful planning, shopping for Eid clothes at the bazaar can be a tiring experience and even break the bag without realizing it.

In this case, Eras Praghita, Head Creative of Rendezvouz Modest Market, shared tips for shopping for Eid clothes at the bazaar to be more effective and fun.

Bazars are usually crowded with visitors in the afternoon until the evening. Coming early allows us to shop more casually, without having to crowd or wait long when we want to make a transaction.

Generally, the Eid clothes bazaar in the capital city opens at malls and follows the operating hours of shopping centers. Like the Rendezouz Modest Market which was held from 12 to 23 March 2025 at Aeon Mall Tanjung Barat, South Jakarta, this bazaar is open from 10.00 to 22.00 WIB.

"Come here early in the morning, in the afternoon before the evening is crowded. So that when shopping we are more comfortable," Eras said when met by media crews in Jakarta, recently.

When coming to the bazaar, wear comfortable clothes. The outfits when shopping also need to be taken into account so that it is easier for us to move to hit hundreds of people who also shop at the same place.

"Just wear clothes that are comfortable, because usually the Eid clothes bazaar is crowded with visitors. Choose clothes made from cotton or with a silhouette so that the body still feels comfortable when walking from one outlet to another," he said.

In this digital era, many outlets in the bazaar provide non-cash payment options. This method will make it easier and faster for transactions so that they don't queue for too long.

With non-cash payments, we can make transactions faster without having to bother counting the refunds or looking for ATMs around the bazaar location.

Before leaving for the bazaar, make sure you already know how to buy clothes in a style like.

"What kind of style do you want to buy? Make sure you're home before leaving," suggested Eras.

With careful planning, we are not easily tempted by the many choices in the bazaar. To make it easier, we can check the social media accounts of fashion brands that we want to buy.

Make sure the desired collection is available, as well as check the size that matches. This is important because in a crowded bazaar, trying one by one clothes may not be possible.

As much as possible avoid visiting outlets if you just want to take a look around so that the bags don't get boncos. Ensuring the collection of Eid clothes to outlets that you want to buy while in the bazaar, we can directly visit the planned outlets.

This method also includes our efforts to be more mindful when shopping and avoiding unnecessary impulsive purchases.
