Local notes

Ordering from Virginia Beach

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

Dressing for the oceanfront

Summer along the boardwalk is hot and humid, with wind off the water. Lawn and light cotton breathe easily, and an unlined kurta with elbow sleeves suits an evening walk. A straight kurta over cigarette pants is easier in the breeze than a long, full flare, and a cotton dupatta stays put better than a slippery chiffon one. Winters are mild by East Coast standards, so a cambric or linen suit with a light lining covers most cool months.

Ordering if you might move soon

If you are a military family expecting a move, order with that in mind. Your first inquiry only needs your city, not your full address, which is taken when the order goes ahead. Give us any dates that matter, such as Eid or a move, and choose Fabric + Stitching if you do not want to ship your own fabric to Pakistan in the middle of packing boxes.

Your measurements, our quote

Measure at home in inches, using the size guide, and enter the numbers on the USA quote form. The written quote, in US dollars, euros or pounds sterling, covers the outfit, delivery and any import charges, and is paid in full before work starts. Making takes 5 to 7 working days, and shipping time is added. More on ordering from the US is on our USA page.

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.
