Hanover · Germany
Made-to-measure clothing delivered to Hanover
Hanover (Hannover) is the capital of Lower Saxony and host of some of the world’s biggest trade fairs, with the Maschsee in the middle of the city and the baroque Herrenhausen Gardens on its edge. If you want a kameez, kurta or co-ord cut for those long fair days and everything around them, The Gilded Seam makes it to your measurements in Pakistan and delivers it to your Hanover address. There is nowhere in the city to visit or be measured; the order happens online and in writing.

Ordering from Hanover
Sizes, customs rules and sending fabric from Germany: ordering from Germany.
Clothes that survive a trade-fair week
If you work the Messe, you know the routine: early trains, hours on your feet and halls that are warm inside while it is cold outside. A knee-length straight kurta in a crease-resistant cotton blend, with cigarette trousers and pockets for a phone and badge, handles it well. A band collar keeps it neat under a lanyard, and if you start from one of our designs, customisation lets you change the trousers, sleeves or length. Our travel-friendly kurtas guide has more ideas.
Northern weather, mild but changeable
Hanover’s climate is a mix of maritime and continental: winters are cool and grey with occasional frost, summers pleasant rather than hot. A lined cambric kameez is the workhorse for much of the year, khaddar comes out for the coldest weeks, and lawn suits a summer evening walk around the Maschsee. Students at Leibniz University often prefer a short kurti in cotton that copes with a bike ride.

FAQ
Hanover questions
Can a work kurta have pockets?
Yes. Ask for side seam pockets in your notes, and they are shown in the design we agree with you in writing before cutting.
Can I order before a fair and have it ready in time?
Tell us your date when you enquire. Making takes 5 to 7 working days from payment, but shipping time varies, so we cannot promise a delivery date and it is wise to order early.
