The Gilded Seam: Custom Women’s Stitching

Limerick · Ireland

Made-to-measure clothing delivered to Limerick

Limerick sits on the River Shannon in the mid-west, with Georgian streets in the centre, a large university campus at Castletroy and the mild, damp weather of the region. The Gilded Seam makes salwar kameez, kurtas and co-ords to your own measurements in Pakistan and delivers them to your address in Limerick. There is no shop or measuring service in the city; everything is agreed online and in writing.

Local notes

Ordering from Limerick

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

Everyday wear for the mid-west

Limerick’s weather is mild, often wet and sometimes windy along the Shannon. Cambric and cotton blends suit most of the year, a lined kameez or khaddar helps from October to March, and lawn is best kept for summer. If you walk or cycle to work or out to the campus, mention it: slightly fuller trousers make a real difference, and our trouser styles guide compares the cuts.

Study, work and family gatherings

The University of Limerick, Mary Immaculate College and the Technological University of the Shannon bring students and staff from many countries, and a straight kurta with trousers works for lectures and office days alike. For Eid or a dawat with family, an embroidered cambric or jamawar kameez with a warm shawl suits any season. Eid moves earlier each year, so tell us your date and plan backwards with the Eid outfit timeline.

Ordering from Limerick

With Stitching Only, you send photos of your unstitched suit, and once we have confirmed the fabric, the quantity and the arrangements, you post it to Pakistan by a tracked service with an accurate customs declaration. That is the first of two separate shipping stages; the second brings the finished outfit to your address in Limerick. With Fabric + Stitching, we supply the fabric and nothing leaves Ireland.

Ireland is in the EU, where VAT applies to all imported goods and a temporary flat EU customs duty now applies to low-value parcels from outside the EU, and the Ireland page explains the rules. Your quote includes delivery and those charges, so there is nothing extra to pay when your parcel arrives. Cork and Galway order the same way; request a quote when you are ready.
