Ordering from Strasbourg
Sizes, customs rules and sending fabric from France: ordering from France.
Winter is the long season
Strasbourg is colder in winter than Paris, with frosty mornings and the occasional snowfall, and December fills the old town with its famous Christmas market. Khaddar, karandi or marina with full sleeves, and a lining where the fabric is thin, are worth having. For a winter evening, a calf-length kameez with a band collar in velvet or karandi looks dressy and keeps the cold out. Summers can be properly warm, and then lawn and linen take over.
Institutions, students and Petite France
For meetings in the European Quarter, a plain kurta in cotton silk or cambric with straight trousers is as polished as a suit. Students at the Université de Strasbourg often want something easy for the tram and the library, like a short kurti over jeans. A co-ord is pleasant for a stroll along the canals of Petite France on a spring afternoon.
Ordering from Alsace
Even though Germany is just over the bridge at Kehl, an order for your Strasbourg address is a French one, so pick France on the quote form. The written quote covers delivery, TVA and EU customs duty, and the France page explains the rules. For fancy work on a winter outfit, say which level you want when you ask for a quote.
