Custom stitching becomes confusing when you’re not clear about fabrics, designs, measurements, stitching charges or how to get the best value for your money.

To help with all these and more, we’ve launched the TailorBoutiques blog to simplify the entire custom-tailoring journey for our clients.

TailorBoutiques is a doorstep tailoring service for ladies & gents customised wear that is transparent and guidance-oriented.

Our blog reflects this aspect of our brand. It contains useful and practical stitching-related information that helps you make informed choices before we cut your fabric.

The blog is a product of the team at TailorBoutiques including our in-house karigars and designers. Therefore, all information is practical and based on rich, hands-on tailoring experience.

It’s a breath of fresh air after encountering so much recycled or generic content on the internet.

So, what’s there to explore on the blog? Read on.

Design Ideas & Inspiration: Choose the right designs & silhouettes

Our guides give you an in-depth idea of different cuts, silhouettes, necklines etc. in relation to your body type & the occasion.

We’ve written extensively on:

  • Different types of blouse designs for sarees & lehengas

  • Lehenga & indo-western designs and trends

  • Anarkali or kurti, which one to choose

  • Sherwani & jodhpuri / bandhgalas for men

  • Festive wear & daily wear ideas

  • Smart wear ideas for men to elevate their office-wear game

Fabric Selection & Care: Invest in quality fabrics that look great

The right fabric goes a long way in deciding how a piece of clothing would look and wear.

Investing in a good fabric also ensures that the final product stays beautiful over time.

Choosing the wrong one could negate the impact of the best of cuts and stitching.

On the blog, we’ve written about:

  • How to understand the drape and weight of fabrics and what it means

  • How to tell good quality fabric from poor quality before you buy

  • Cotton or linen, which one to pick for office-wear?

  • Silk or chiffon/georgette, which one to buy for a festive occasion?

  • How to prevent shrinkage or colour fading

  • When to get clothes dry-cleaned & how often you should get zari items cleaned

Measurement Tips: Getting an Accurate Fit at Home

Poor or incorrect measurements are one of the major reasons custom-stitched clothes fail to fit right.

That’s why we’ve written about:

  • How to take body measurements at home, what to wear while measuring, mistakes to avoid etc.

  • What to do if your weight or body-shape has changed?

How do we at TailorBoutiques make your experience of getting stitched at home comparable, or even better, to stitching at a shop?

Our own unique 6-step measurement process helps us understand key points for each type of clothing to ensure your clothes fit as they’re supposed to.

Stitching Price Guides: What Actually Affects the Cost

While the base rate for custom-stitched outfits at TailorBoutiques starts at an attractive rate of ₹999 onwards, several other factors affect the final stitching charges.

These include the kind of fabric you’re using, the amount of fabric, additional elements like embroidery or embellishment, handwork, lining, piping, canvas, etc.

Our blog contains comprehensive and transparent stitching rate lists for:

  • Corporate uniforms, useful for schools and other organisations that need to order in bulk

  • Women’s wear, lehengas, saree blouses, indo-westerns, kurtis, salwar suits, western-wear etc.

  • Men’s wear, sherwanis, jodhpuris, western-wear etc.

Alteration and Garment Care Tips

  • Should you get your outfit altered or restitched, how do you decide?

  • How to fix fitting issues in stitched clothes?

  • How to store bridal wear?

  • Can you transform your old saree into something trendy?

We encourage our clients to explore the TailorBoutiques blog before choosing to get something stitched with us.

It’ll help you understand our thought process better and make your own decisions with confidence.
