Ordering from Hartford, Connecticut
Sizes, customs rules and sending fabric from the USA: ordering from the USA.
Workwear that lasts a long day downtown
For an office day, a kurta in cambric or a cotton blend keeps its shape from the morning meeting to the drive home. A straight cut to the knee, a round or band neckline and straight pants make a quiet, polished set. If you like one of our designs as a base, customizing a design lets you change the sleeves, length and pants without starting from scratch.
Connecticut River valley weather
Inland Connecticut gets properly cold and snowy in winter and hot, humid spells in summer. From December, karandi or marina with a lining makes sense under a heavy coat; by June, lawn and light cotton are back. Students at Trinity College or the University of Hartford in West Hartford may want both: a warm kameez for winter mornings and an easy lawn kurta for the end of the spring semester.
Your own suit, or our fabric
If you already own an unstitched suit, Stitching Only works once we have seen photos and confirmed the fabric and quantity. You then ship it to Pakistan yourself, by a tracked service with an honest customs declaration. If you would rather not, we supply the fabric. Start on the USA quote form, or read the USA page first.
