Leuven · Belgium

Made-to-measure clothing delivered to Leuven

Leuven is a university town above all: its university was founded in 1425, and students and researchers from all over the world fill its libraries, labs and the long row of cafés on the Oude Markt. It is Dutch-speaking and a short train ride from Brussels. The Gilded Seam makes women’s clothing to your measurements in Pakistan and delivers it to Leuven; you order online, and every detail is confirmed in writing.

Local notes

Ordering from Leuven

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

Campus by bike

Most of Leuven moves by bicycle, so clothes need to cope with a saddle and a chain. A short kurti over jeans, or a kurta with side slits set for cycling and trousers that are narrow at the ankle, works well. Wide-leg trousers look lovely but catch on a chain, so if you start from one of our designs and cycle every day, ask for straight or cigarette trousers through customisation.

International students, Flemish weather

If you have come to Leuven to study from somewhere warmer, the Belgian winter can be a surprise: grey, damp and chilly from November to March. Khaddar or a lined cambric kameez with full sleeves helps, with enough ease for a jumper underneath. Summers are mild, and lawn is pleasant from June. For a graduation, a defence or an Eid dinner with friends, a lightly embroidered kurta looks smart without being heavy.
