The Gilded Seam: Custom Women’s Stitching

Jacksonville · United States

Made-to-measure clothing delivered to Jacksonville

Jacksonville spreads along the St. Johns River out to the Atlantic beaches, and its weather is more varied than South Florida’s: steamy summers, but winters with real cool spells. The Gilded Seam makes women’s salwar kameez, kurtas, co-ords and Western pieces to your measurements in Pakistan and ships them anywhere in Duval, Clay or St. Johns County.

Local notes

Ordering from Jacksonville

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

A wardrobe for two seasons

From May to October, lawn and voile carry most outfits, with a cotton lining only where the print is pale. North Florida winters, though, can bring frosty mornings, so a lined cambric or linen kameez with full sleeves is worth having. If you want one suit that does both, choose a mid-weight cotton and pair it with a warmer shawl in January.

Navy families and moving house

With Naval Air Station Jacksonville and Naval Station Mayport in the area, plenty of households here know what it is to pack up and move. Ordering made to measure online keeps your measurements, design and quote in writing, so a later order works the same way wherever you are next, and we ship worldwide.

Getting started

Start with the quote form. Choose Stitching Only if you have an unstitched suit to send, once we have confirmed it from your photos, or Fabric + Stitching if you would rather we supply it. For classes at the University of North Florida or a downtown office, a short kurta set or a relaxed co-ord makes a sensible starting point, and if you start from one of our designs you can change the sleeves or length to suit.

Two ways to order

Our fabric, or yours

Both are made to your measurements in Pakistan. The minimum order is one suit, and we don’t offer free samples.

  • Fabric + Stitching

    We supply the agreed fabric and make your outfit to your measurements. One parcel: the finished outfit shipped to you.

    • Fabric agreed with you before cutting
    • Minimum order one suit
    • No need to send anything
  • Stitching Only

    You supply suitable fabric, such as an unstitched suit, and we cut, stitch and finish it.

    • Two shipping stages: your fabric to us in Pakistan, then the outfit to you
    • Confirm suitability and quantity before sending
    • Minimum order one suit
If I send my own fabric, when does making start?

Once your fabric has reached us in Pakistan and your quote is paid in full; production then takes 5 to 7 working days. Because the fabric and the finished outfit travel separately, start early if you have a date in mind.

Is there anywhere in Jacksonville to try the outfit on?

No. We have no store or studio in Florida and offer no try-ons. Your measurements and every design detail are agreed in writing before cutting, and the outfit is shipped straight to you.
