Leeds · England
Leeds is a student city and a big working city at once, with the University of Leeds and Leeds Beckett close to the centre and offices all around the station. That makes it a place for everyday pieces that work hard: a kurta for a seminar, a co-ord for the office, a simple suit for a weekend with family. The Gilded Seam makes them to your measurements in Pakistan and delivers them to your Leeds address.
InspirationLocal notes
Sizes, customs rules and sending fabric from the UK: ordering from the UK.
For lectures, labs and long library days, simple cuts in hard-wearing cotton or cambric outlast delicate lawn. A straight kurta that stops mid-thigh, with side slits deep enough to sit and climb stairs comfortably, works with jeans, straight trousers or a matching shalwar. If you want pockets, say so in your notes, and a plain kurta without embroidery keeps things simple.
Not everything needs to be a three-piece suit. A two-piece co-ord, a kurta with tailored trousers, or a simple made-to-measure dress all fit a Leeds office wardrobe and layer under a coat for the walk from the station. See custom stitching for the pieces we make.
Whether your fabric came from a shop in Harehills, from Leeds Road in Bradford or from a brand’s UK website, contact us with photos through the quote form before you post it. We confirm it is suitable and enough for your design, and how to send it to Pakistan; the finished outfit then comes to you separately. If you would rather not shop for fabric at all, Fabric + Stitching means we supply it.
Custom stitching · Custom design · Leeds
Custom stitching in Leeds usually means a queue at a stall in Kirkgate Market or a tailor in Harehills who is busy until after Eid. If you would rather not wait, there is another way to get custom dresses in Leeds made to your own measurements. Send us the design, we make it in Pakistan, and a courier brings it to your door, whether you live near the university or out in Roundhay.
The photos below are a place to begin. A Pakistani suit can become a two-piece for the office, a dress can lose its sleeves or gain them, and an abaya can be made in nida, crepe or chiffon in any colour. Got a Pinterest board instead? Send us your own design and say which details matter most. The quote lists every detail and the total in pounds, and nothing is cut until you approve it.
