Khamis Mushait · Saudi Arabia

We make women’s abayas, dresses and suits to the measurements you send, stitch them in Pakistan and courier them to your home in Khamis Mushait.

Local notes

Ordering from Khamis Mushait

Sizes, customs rules and sending fabric from Saudi Arabia: ordering from Saudi Arabia.

Fabric with a bit of weight

Lawn can feel thin here once the sun goes down. Cambric and linen are good everyday weights, crepe makes an abaya that drapes well and holds a little warmth, and a lining adds a layer on damp days. In winter, karandi or marina makes a kameez you will actually reach for. Sleeves to the wrist and a generous dupatta help in every season.

Evening dresses and graduation abayas

For a family celebration, a long evening dress can be made with full sleeves, a higher neckline and a lining, with embroidery at the neckline or hem through fancy work. For a graduation, a black abaya with an embroidered cuff or a coloured lining is simple to plan in. Send a picture of what you have in mind and we start from that.

Abha and the rest of Asir

Our Abha page has more on dressing for the highlands. Ordering works the same anywhere in the region: measure at home with the size guide, then fill in the Saudi Arabia quote form.

Your dream design, made real

Khamis Mushait shares the cool Asir air with Abha next door, and an evening out can call for a layer even in summer. That is worth remembering when you plan an abaya or a dress. Instead of arranging your week around a ladies tailor in Khamis Mushait, send us a picture and your measurements: we make the piece in Pakistan and send it to your home by courier.

Pick a design from the photos below and tell us what to change: a crepe abaya instead of chiffon, a lined evening dress, a graduation abaya with embroidery on the sleeves, a longer hem to sit over heels. Or start from nothing and send your own design, even a quick sketch. You see the fabric, every measurement and the full price in a written quote, and we cut only after you say yes.

Custom abayas · Khamis Mushait

Abayas made to measure, delivered to Khamis Mushait

We make abayas to measure for Khamis Mushait, from a plain black everyday abaya to a dressier one for Eid. Each is cut in Pakistan to your body measurements, or to those of an abaya you already own, and couriered to you; you order online or on WhatsApp, in English or Arabic.

In the cooler Asir air, crepe is a comfortable choice for most of the year, and chiffon over an inner layer works for evenings. Collection designs start from £80 with a matching scarf, any design can be made in any colour, and your quote includes delivery and any duty and VAT.
