Fabric and stitching in Germany

A good Pakistani lawn or khaddar is not always easy to find in German shops, and buying cloth by eye from a website is a gamble. With Fabric + Stitching, the fabric question is ours to solve: you describe what you want, we propose a suitable fabric with photos and a description, and once you agree, we cut and stitch the whole outfit in Pakistan and send it to your address in Germany.

  • Made in Pakistan, shipped to Germany
  • 5 to 7 working days to make, plus shipping
  • Quote in EUR, USD or GBP

From Germany

Fabric + Stitching for Germany

We supply the agreed fabric and make the whole outfit, so nothing has to be posted to us.

Sizes, delivery and sending fabric from Germany: ordering from Germany.

Fabrics for a German year

Germany swings further between seasons than Britain or the Netherlands, so the fabric matters. Lawn is for July heat in Cologne or Mannheim; cambric covers spring, autumn and heated offices; linen suits relaxed co-ords. For winters in Berlin, Leipzig or Munich, khaddar, karandi and marina hold warmth, and velvet makes a winter Eid outfit feel special. Tell us where and when you will wear the outfit, and we suggest accordingly.

One parcel instead of two

Because the fabric is already with us in Pakistan, there is no first shipment to arrange, no Zollinhaltserklärung to fill in and no wait for your fabric to arrive. Making takes 5 to 7 working days once your quote is approved and paid in full, and then a single parcel travels to you. German customs clear it on arrival, and its import VAT (Einfuhrumsatzsteuer), any customs duty and courier fees are already in your quote. The Germany page explains the EU rules behind that.

Seeing the fabric before you agree

We do not send free samples. Instead, your quote comes with photos and a description of the proposed fabric, its weight and feel, and you can ask questions before approving. Colours shift on screens, so if you need a shade to match a dupatta or shoes you already own, send a photo of them in daylight. We supply cloth only as part of an outfit we make; it is never sent uncut. The general Fabric + Stitching page has more.

How it works

Fabric + Stitching step by step

  1. 01

    Tell us what you want

    Send your design or pick one of ours, and describe the fabric you would like, for example lawn, cotton or chiffon. We tell you what we can source for your design.

  2. 02

    We source and show you the fabric

    We share photos and descriptions of the fabric with your quote. There are no free samples, and nothing is cut until the fabric is agreed.

  3. 03

    Approve, pay and we make it

    Your written quote includes the fabric, the stitching, delivery and any import charges. Once it is paid in full, we make the outfit in 5 to 7 working days.

  4. 04

    One parcel to your door

    Fabric and stitching both happen in Pakistan, so the finished outfit reaches you in one shipment.

  • Single pieces welcome

    One outfit is enough. No minimum bundle.

  • Full payment in advance

    You pay once you’ve approved your quote, before we cut anything.

  • 5 to 7 working days to make

    Production time only. Shipping is added on top.

  • Delivered worldwide

    Delivery and import charges are included in your quote.

Can I buy the cloth to take to a Schneiderin in Germany?

No. We supply cloth only as part of an outfit we cut and stitch for you, under Fabric + Stitching.

If I cancel, what happens to the fabric cost?

If you cancel a paid order before cutting starts, you are refunded minus the cost of any fabric already bought for your order. Once cutting has started, there is no refund.
