Bristol · England
Made-to-measure clothing delivered to Bristol
Bristol is a city of steep streets, damp winters and a great deal of cycling, and the clothes that work here have to cope with all three. The Gilded Seam makes women’s clothing to your measurements in Pakistan and ships it to any Bristol address, from Easton and Bedminster to Clifton and Fishponds. You arrange everything online, and the outfit arrives ready to wear.

Ordering from Bristol
Sizes, customs rules and sending fabric from the UK: ordering from the UK.
Dressing for the hills
Climbing Park Street, or the terraces up to Totterdown, in a long, narrow kameez is hard work. An A-line kameez, or a knee-length one rather than calf length, gives your legs room, and straight or wide-leg trousers are easier on a bike than a slim churidar. Tell us how you get around in your notes. Our pages on hemlines and the A-line kameez show the options.
Students at Bristol and UWE
If you are studying at the University of Bristol or at UWE’s Frenchay campus with nobody around to hold the tape, our guide to measuring yourself without help walks you through it. A single kurta is a perfectly good first order, because single pieces are accepted. Your quote is in pounds and is paid in full by bank transfer, Wise or a card payment link before cutting.
Fabrics for a wet city
The West Country is wetter than the south east, so think about fabrics that cope with a soaked bus stop. Cambric and cotton are easy to wash and dry, khaddar keeps you warm through the winter, and lawn is for the summer weeks. With Fabric + Stitching we source a fabric that suits the season and share photos with your quote. More on ordering from Britain is on our UK page.
