Local notes

Ordering from Naperville

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

A commuter’s winter wardrobe

A January morning on a station platform is serious cold, so start with warmth. A lined khaddar or marina suit with full sleeves, a kameez that falls below the knee and slim pants that tuck into boots will see you through. For the office once you arrive, a cambric kurta in a calm color layers neatly under a coat. Our Chicago page has more on winters near the lake.

A suit from Devon Avenue or online

If you bought an unstitched suit on a trip to Devon Avenue or ordered one online, Stitching Only turns it into a finished outfit. Send daylight photos first; we confirm the fabric suits your design, that there is enough of it and how to send it, before you mail anything to Pakistan. The finished outfit then comes back to Naperville as a separate shipment.

Summer on the Riverwalk, Eid and Diwali

Summers are warm and can be humid, so lawn kurtas with three-quarter sleeves come into their own for evenings by the river or a weekend gathering. For Eid, Diwali parties or a wedding as a guest, a long kameez with detailed embroidery and a contrasting dupatta looks dressed up without being heavy.

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
Do you have a store in the western suburbs?

No. There is no store, studio or measuring service in Illinois. You order online, your measurements are agreed in writing, and the outfit is made in Pakistan and shipped to your door.

Can I order several outfits for Eid at once?

Yes. List each outfit in one inquiry, and the written quote covers all of them, along with shipping and any US import charges. Production is 5 to 7 working days from full payment, so give us your date early.
