Local notes

Ordering from Stamford, Connecticut

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

Office kurtas for Fairfield County

Business casual here tends toward clean lines and quiet colors. A short straight kurta with cigarette pants fits that well, made with full sleeves or a knee length for a more formal look, and customizing one of our designs is one route to it. A band collar looks crisp under a blazer.

The Sound in January and July

Coastal Connecticut is a little gentler than inland New England, but January still brings snow and raw wind off the water. Karandi or a lined khaddar keeps you warm while you wait on the platform. Summers are humid, so for July we suggest lawn or cambric, unlined, with elbow sleeves.

Ordering from Stamford

Everything happens online. You send your measurements in inches on the USA quote form, choose whether we supply the fabric or you send your own, and agree every detail in writing before cutting. With Fabric + Stitching, photos and descriptions of the fabric come with your quote; there are no free samples. Production takes 5 to 7 working days once you have approved and paid, and shipping time is added on top. More on ordering is on our USA page.

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 showroom in Connecticut?

No. There is no showroom, store or tailor of ours anywhere in Connecticut or the rest of the US. The outfit is made in Pakistan, and nobody measures you in person.

Can I order a Western dress as well?

Yes. We make Western pieces such as dresses, skirts, tops and pants to measure, as well as salwar kameez and kurtas.

How do I pay?

In full and in advance, by bank transfer, Wise or a card payment link, in US dollars, euros or pounds sterling, whichever you chose for your quote.
