Stitching Only for Hong Kong

You supply an unstitched suit or fabric, and we cut, stitch and finish it to your measurements.

Sizes, delivery and sending fabric from Hong Kong: ordering from Hong Kong.

Cloth by the metre from Sham Shui Po

Sham Shui Po’s fabric streets are where many people in Hong Kong buy cloth, sold by the metre or the yard rather than as a ready-cut three-piece. That is fine for a kurta, co-ord or dress, but you need to buy enough length for your design, and width makes a big difference. Before buying, read our notes on fabric widths, or send us the design and we tell you roughly what to look for.

Unstitched suits from Pakistan, bought on a trip or sent by family, are simpler: the kameez, trouser and dupatta pieces are already there, and we check them against your design.

Posting from Hong Kong

Photograph each piece in daylight with its length and width, and wait for our confirmation of suitability, quantity and how to send it before posting. You arrange the courier from Hong Kong. Pack the fabric in a sealed bag inside a sturdy envelope, describe it accurately on the customs declaration as fabric, and keep the receipt and tracking number.

Making starts once your fabric reaches us and your quote is paid, and takes 5 to 7 working days. The outfit then comes back to you as a separate shipment, with its delivery and any import charges in your quote. The general Stitching Only page has more.

FAQ

Stitching Only questions

Can I send fabric for more than one outfit together?

Yes. Photograph and label each piece, list the outfits on one request, and we confirm all of them before you post a single parcel.

Do I pay for posting my fabric to Pakistan?

Yes. That first shipment is arranged and paid for by you, unless your quote says otherwise. Delivery of the finished outfit back to Hong Kong is in your quote.
