Pro Tip from Our Master Tailors
If you prefer a looser fit, distinct pleats in your shalwar, or wish to add styling details like cuffs, plackets, and elaborate collars, it's always safer to order an extra half meter (0.5m) of fabric. Most of our standard cuts come in 4.5 meters which is generous enough for most designs.
