The Gilded Seam: Custom Women’s Stitching

Burnaby · Canada

Made-to-measure clothing delivered to Burnaby

Burnaby sits between Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, with Metrotown at its heart and Simon Fraser University on top of Burnaby Mountain, often in the clouds. The Gilded Seam makes women’s clothing to your measurements in Pakistan and couriers it to your Burnaby home, so you can order without hunting for a tailor.

Local notes

Ordering from Burnaby

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

Up the mountain, into the fog

Students at SFU know the hilltop campus can be colder and wetter than the city below. A kurta in cambric with full sleeves and a light lining copes well, and a mid-thigh length works with jeans and boots. BCIT students in labs and workshops may prefer a shorter kurta and no dupatta at all.

If you have a picture of something you love, send it as a custom design and we make it to your measurements.

Weekends by Deer Lake and Metrotown

For a summer walk around Deer Lake or a family dinner, a lawn suit or a linen co-ord is relaxed and cool. For the wetter months, choose a fabric that does not mind a shower, and ask for straight trousers so the hems stay out of puddles. Shopping at Metrotown on a rainy Saturday is easier in a kurta that layers under a waterproof jacket, so a slimmer sleeve helps, and darker colours hide splashes from the bus stop.

Measurements go on the quote form in centimetres or inches; our size guide shows where to measure, and our Canada page covers delivery and payment.

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
    • Minimum order one suit
    • No need to send anything
  • Stitching Only

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

    • Two shipping stages: your fabric to us in Pakistan, then the outfit to you
    • Confirm suitability and quantity before sending
    • Minimum order one suit
Can I order just a dress, not a suit?

Yes. We make Western pieces too, such as dresses, skirts, tops and trousers, and one piece is a normal order.

When is my outfit made?

Once your quote is approved and paid in full, production takes 5 to 7 working days, or from when your fabric reaches us with Stitching Only. Courier time comes after.
