Local notes

Ordering from Schaumburg

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

Kurtas for the office park

If your office is business casual, a well-cut kurta fits right in. A short kurta with cigarette pants, its sleeves full for winter, or a co-ord with a buttoned placket, both look polished at a desk. Choose cambric or linen for spring and fall, and a lined khaddar kameez when the heating is on and the parking lot is icy.

Designs from a screenshot

Saw an outfit online or at a family wedding that you would love in your own size? Send a screenshot, a sketch or a written description through Send Your Design. We say what we can make from it, suggest anything that would suit the fabric better, and agree every detail in writing before cutting. Single pieces are welcome, so one kurta or one dress is a complete order.

Planning for the cold months

Northern Illinois winters are long, so if you want a warm suit for December, ask for a quote in early fall. With your own fabric, remember that it travels to Pakistan before production starts; with Fabric + Stitching, there is only the return trip. Either way, making takes 5 to 7 working days after full payment, and your quote covers shipping and any US import charges. The Chicago page and our USA overview cover the rest.

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
Can you stitch a suit I bought on Devon Avenue?

Yes, if the fabric suits the design and there is enough. Share photos first; once we confirm the fabric and arrangements, you mail it to Pakistan with tracking and an accurate customs declaration.

Can I pay by card?

Yes. Payment is made in full before work starts, by bank transfer, Wise or a card payment link, in US dollars, euros or pounds sterling, whichever you chose for your quote.
