The Gilded Seam: Custom Women’s Stitching

Graz · Austria

Made-to-measure clothing delivered to Graz

Graz, the capital of Styria, is a student city at heart: several universities, a red-roofed old town along the Mur and the Uhrturm clock tower looking down from the Schlossberg. If you want a kurta or kameez that fits you properly and suits a busy week, The Gilded Seam makes it to your measurements in Pakistan and delivers it to your address in Graz. Nothing is done in person here; it is all arranged online and in writing.

Local notes

Ordering from Graz

Sizes, customs rules and sending fabric from Austria: ordering from Austria.

Lecture halls and labs

Between the University of Graz, the technical university and the medical university, a lot of the city’s week is spent in seminar rooms, labs and libraries. Comfortable, washable pieces matter: a mid-thigh cambric kurta with elbow sleeves and cigarette trousers, or a short kurti over jeans for the climb up the Schlossberg steps. If one of our designs catches your eye but you want full sleeves or a lining, customise it.

South of the Alps

Graz lies south-east of the main Alpine ridge, and its summers are warm, sometimes hot, so lawn and linen do most of the work from June to September. Winters still turn cold and damp along the river, and a lined khaddar kameez with room for a layer underneath is worth ordering before November. For Eid, a lightly embroidered three-piece in a soft colour works well at home or at a family dinner.

Your fabric or ours

If you already have an unstitched suit, send us daylight photos before posting anything, so we can confirm the fabric suits your design and that there is enough. Once we have agreed how to send it, post it to Pakistan with tracking and an honest description on the customs form. If you would rather not post anything, Fabric + Stitching means we supply the fabric. Either way, delivery and any import charges are in your quote; the Austria page explains them.

Two ways to order

Our fabric, or yours

Both are made to your measurements in Pakistan. The minimum order is one suit, and we don’t offer free samples.

  • Fabric + Stitching

    We supply the agreed fabric and make your outfit to your measurements. One parcel: the finished outfit shipped to you.

    • Fabric agreed with you before cutting

    • No need to send anything
  • Stitching Only

    You supply suitable fabric, such as an unstitched suit, and we cut, stitch and finish it.

    • Confirm suitability and quantity before sending
    • Minimum order one suit

FAQ

Graz questions

Also in Austria

Is there a shop in Graz where I can see your work?

No. We have no shop, studio or measuring service in Graz or anywhere in Austria. We share photos and descriptions with your quote, and the outfit is made in Pakistan and shipped to you.

Can I pay as a student in euros?

Yes. Customers in Austria choose euros, US dollars or pounds sterling, and the written quote is issued in that currency. The order is paid in full before we start.
