The Gilded Seam: Custom Women’s Stitching

Rennes · France

Made-to-measure clothing delivered to Rennes

Rennes, the capital of Brittany, is a student city with two universities, half-timbered houses in the old centre and a busy Saturday market on the Place des Lices. Its weather is famously drizzly, though rarely harsh. The Gilded Seam makes kurtas, co-ords and suits to your measurements in Pakistan and ships them to Rennes, with the whole order arranged online.

Local notes

Ordering from Rennes

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

A student wardrobe

Between lectures, the library and a bike or the metro, what works is short, washable and comfortable. A cotton kurti over jeans, a straight kurta with narrow trousers that stay clear of the bike chain, or a plain co-ord are easy to live in, and university and campus outfits has more. A single kurta is a perfectly normal order.

Dressing for Breton rain

Rain in Rennes tends to be light and frequent rather than heavy, and temperatures are mild for most of the year. Mid-weight cambric is the everyday choice, a lined kameez or khaddar helps in the colder months, and a darker print hides splashes. On a dry summer day in the Parc du Thabor, lawn is a pleasure.

Your own design

Saw a kurta you liked on someone at a party, or saved a screenshot? With custom design, you send the picture with notes on the neckline, sleeves and length, and we tell you what we can make and agree every detail in writing. The France page explains how delivery and import charges are included in your quote.
