The Gilded Seam: Custom Women’s Stitching

Buffalo, New York · United States

Made-to-measure clothing delivered to Buffalo, New York

Buffalo is famous for lake-effect snow off Lake Erie, and anyone who has lived through a Buffalo January knows a thin lawn suit will not do. The Gilded Seam makes salwar kameez, kurtas and co-ords to your measurements in Pakistan, in fabrics that make sense for Western New York, and ships them to your address in the city, Amherst or the rest of Erie County.

  • Made in Pakistan
  • Minimum order: one suit
  • Quote in EUR, USD or GBP

Local notes

Ordering from Buffalo, New York

Sizes, customs rules and sending fabric from the USA: ordering from the USA.

Snow season dressing

From late fall, a winter suit has to cope with snowbanks, heated buildings and plenty of time in a parka. Karandi and khaddar are the warm choices, and a lining helps the kameez slide over thermals. Cigarette pants tuck neatly into snow boots, while straight pants sit over them. Mention on the form if you wear a thermal layer, so your measurements allow for it.

Summer by the lake

Summers here are warm and often pleasant, cooled by breezes off the lake, so lawn and cambric come back out for a few good months. An unlined kurta with elbow sleeves suits a day at Canalside or a weekend trip to Niagara Falls. Students at the University at Buffalo may want one of each: a warm kameez for the North Campus winter and a light kurta for May.

How ordering works from Western New York

Everything is arranged online through the USA quote form. If you want to use a suit you already own, Stitching Only means shipping it to Pakistan once we have confirmed it, by a tracked service, with the contents declared honestly. If not, we supply the fabric. Your quote is in USD, EUR or GBP and includes delivery to your door and any import charges. See the USA page for more.
