The Gilded Seam: Custom Women’s Stitching

Brescia · Italy

Made-to-measure clothing delivered to Brescia

Brescia and its province are home to one of the largest Pakistani communities in Italy, so unstitched suits for Eid, dawats and everyday wear are familiar to many families here. They may come back in a suitcase from Pakistan or arrive from an online order; the harder part can be finding someone nearby who cuts a kameez the way you want it. We stitch them to your measurements in Pakistan and deliver the finished outfits to you in Brescia.

Ordering from Brescia

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

Eid, dawats and family gatherings

Eid often means more than one outfit: something embroidered for the first morning, and something lighter for the visiting that follows. You can order several outfits at once; tell us on the quote form how many there are and whose measurements each one is for. If you, your sisters and your mother want coordinated outfits, send each person’s measurements and the details can be matched across the set.

Casual party wear for dinners and dawats is welcome too, from a lightly embroidered kameez to a smart co-ord.

Your suits from home, cut to your measurements

Pakistani lawn, cambric, khaddar and embroidered sets are exactly what Stitching Only is for. Before sending anything, contact us with photos so we can confirm the fabric and quantity. The suits then travel to Pakistan by a tracked service with an accurate customs declaration, and the finished outfits reach Brescia as a separate shipment.

Brescia lies at the foot of the Alps, with cold winters and hot summers, so it is worth planning both: a lawn suit for July, and a khaddar or karandi suit with full sleeves for January. Our winter fabrics guide compares the warmer options.

Measurements and the written quote

Measure at home in centimetres with the size guide, or in inches if that is the tape you have, and put each person’s name against their numbers. Your written quote then sets out production time and includes delivery to Brescia and any import charges, such as IVA and the EU’s flat duty on low-value parcels, so there is nothing extra to pay when your parcel arrives.

Two ways to order

Our fabric, or yours

Both are made to your measurements in Pakistan. The minimum order is one suit, and we don’t offer free samples.

  • Fabric + Stitching

    We supply the agreed fabric and make your outfit to your measurements. One parcel: the finished outfit shipped to you.

    • Fabric agreed with you before cutting
    • Minimum order one suit
    • No need to send anything
  • Stitching Only

    You supply suitable fabric, such as an unstitched suit, and we cut, stitch and finish it.

    • Two shipping stages: your fabric to us in Pakistan, then the outfit to you
    • Confirm suitability and quantity before sending
    • Minimum order one suit
Can I send several suits from Brescia in one parcel?

Yes, once we have confirmed them with you. Put a note with each suit saying whose measurements it is for and which design was agreed, and list every piece on the customs declaration. Photographing everything before it goes in the box also helps.

Do you visit Brescia to take measurements?

No. There are no visits, shops or measuring appointments in Italy. Measurements taken at home with the size guide give us what we need, and everything is agreed with you in writing before cutting.
