Umm Salal · Qatar
Umm Salal lies just north of Doha along Al Shamal Road, a municipality of villas, farms and family neighbourhoods around Umm Salal Mohammed and Umm Salal Ali, where the old Barzan Towers still stand. Most errands here mean getting in the car, and a tailor is one more. We make women’s clothing and abayas to your measurements in Pakistan and courier them to your home, with the design agreed in writing before anything is cut.
InspirationLocal notes
Sizes, customs rules and sending fabric from Qatar: ordering from Qatar.
Family homes here fill up for Ramadan evenings and Eid, and the women of the house often want new outfits at the same time. Put everyone on one request, each with her own measurements, and we quote the pieces together. For hosting at home, a custom jalabiya with embroidery at the neckline and cuffs is comfortable for a long evening; please note that we make women’s clothing only.
Ramadan and Eid move every year, so give us your date on the form. Making takes 5 to 7 working days after approval and payment, and courier time is added after that.
Away from the sea, summer heat is drier but no gentler, so loose cuts in breathable cotton matter. A lawn kameez with full sleeves keeps the sun off without trapping heat. When winter nights turn cool, especially out at the farm, a kameez in marina or linen with a lining feels warmer without being heavy.
Measure at home with our size guide and send your design on the Qatar quote form. If you do not want to post any fabric, Fabric + Stitching means we source it in Pakistan and only the finished outfit travels. Your quote is in US dollars, euros or pounds and includes delivery and any import charges.
Custom stitching · Custom design · Umm Salal
For a family in Umm Salal, a new abaya often means a drive down Al Shamal Road and then a wait at a tailor in Umm Salal or in Doha. You can order from home instead. Send a picture of the abaya, jalabiya or frock you want, add your measurements, and we stitch it in Pakistan and courier it to your villa, whether it is in Umm Salal Mohammed or Umm Salal Ali.
Choose an abaya from the photos below, then tell us what you would change: deeper sleeves, a closed front, a different colour or lighter embroidery. The frocks and suits can be adjusted in the same way for Eid visits and family gatherings, and our Eid abayas show some of the more festive shapes. We put each choice and the full price in a written quote, and cut only after you approve it.
