Atlanta · United States
Atlanta summers are long, hot and heavy with humidity, and the warm weather often runs from spring well into fall. That makes fabric the first decision for any outfit here. The Gilded Seam stitches women’s salwar kameez, kurtas and co-ords to your measurements in Pakistan and ships them to you anywhere in metro Atlanta, from Decatur to the northern suburbs.
InspirationLocal notes
Sizes, customs rules and sending fabric from the USA: ordering from the USA.
Lawn, voile and fine cotton breathe in a way that polyester blends never will, and a white chikankari kurta is hard to beat on a humid afternoon. Ask for a little ease through the body, and a lining only where pale lawn would otherwise be sheer. For the short winter, cambric or linen is usually enough. Our guide to summer outfits for hot weather has more ideas.
Unstitched suits from the Indian and Pakistani shops around Decatur and Norcross, or from brands you order online, can be made up with Stitching Only. Photograph each piece and add your measurements in inches on the quote form; we confirm the fabric, the quantity and how to send it before you ship anything. Then send it to Pakistan by a tracked international service and declare the contents accurately on the customs form. The finished outfit comes back to Georgia as a separate shipment.
Students at Georgia Tech, Emory and Georgia State need clothes that survive a long day and plenty of washing: cotton kurtas over straight pants, and co-ords that go from class to dinner. For weekend dawats and summer gatherings, a lightly embroidered lawn suit keeps you cool while still looking dressed up.

FAQ
Also in United States
Lawn is the lightest and coolest, followed by voile and fine cotton. Keep embellishment light for everyday wear, and choose a cotton lining over a synthetic one, which traps heat.
Yes. Choose Fabric + Stitching, tell us the color and occasion, and the fabric is agreed with you in writing before cutting. Only the finished outfit then travels to Atlanta.
No. There are no in-person appointments or try-ons anywhere in the US; everything is made in Pakistan. Careful measurements, or a kameez that already sits well on you, are agreed in writing before cutting.
