From Portugal

Fabric + Stitching for Portugal

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

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

Telling us what you want to wear

Describe the feel and the season rather than worrying about fabric names. For a Lisbon or Algarve summer, light lawn or voile is usually right; cambric gives a little more body for spring and autumn; and for the long, damp winters of the north, karandi or khaddar with a lining keeps you warm. Chiffon suits Eid evenings and dinners. Tell us the colours you like and whether the dupatta and trousers should match or contrast.

We share photos and descriptions of the fabric we propose with your quote. There are no free samples, and fabric is only supplied as part of an outfit we make, never sold on its own.

One parcel and one quote

Because the fabric is sourced and stitched in Pakistan, you skip the trip to the CTT counter and the customs form for an outgoing parcel. Your written quote covers the fabric, the stitching, delivery to Portugal and any IVA, EU duty or courier fees, in euros, US dollars or pounds as you choose.

When this route suits you best

It is the easier choice for a first order, for anyone far from the South Asian shops of Lisbon, and for outfits where the dupatta and trousers need to work together; matching dupatta and trouser colours has ideas. It pairs well with customising one of our designs, and the Portugal page covers delivery.
