A Truly Special Experience at Barakaa Collections
My wife and I visited several stores on Devon Ave and in the Chicago suburbs while shopping for my brother’s wedding, and unfortunately, we were met with price gouging and unfair treatment—likely because I didn’t speak the language fluently and my wife isn’t of Indo/Pak descent.
But then we found Barakaa Collections in Lombard, and everything changed.
Mohamed and Meenu Anwar, the shop owners, welcomed us like family. Not only did they offer fair and honest pricing, but they took the time to understand our style and needs, helping us choose stunning outfits that truly stood out at the wedding events.
One evening, we stopped by after work, hungry and asking for restaurant recommendations. Instead, they invited us in and served us delicious home-cooked food. Who does that? Mohamed and Meenu did—and it meant the world to us.
Their kindness, integrity, and genuine care have earned our trust completely. If you're looking for beautiful clothing and accessories for men, women, or kids—and want to be treated with respect and warmth—Barakaa Collections is the place to go.

Her suggestions for my daughter, who’s 14 years old, and picky were right on!! She was so patient with us. She gave us very special pricing and helped us accessorize and gave us a gift. I highly recommend this store. They have beautiful attire, and ohhhhh the accessories!! I wish I had more events to go to. Because I would definitely love to spend money in this establishment. It feels like family when you’re there. THANK YOU SO MUCH for making this such a...
Read moreThank goodness for Meenu and Barakaa Collections! I had an evening party to attend with the expectation that guests wear traditional Indian clothing. Intimidated by the sari, Meenu patiently and encouragingly offered beautiful alternatives that were on trend and comfortable for me. I’m taller than the average female so most clothing fits short in arm length and inseam. Meenu solved the problem by recommending I go up to a larger size, and then her tailor could customize it without sacrificing the longer length. A couple of days later, I picked up my salwar kameez, and it me perfectly. I received multiple compliments on my Barakaa Collections outfit while I was at the...
