About Custom Design & Personal Styling
Why Custom Matters
Finding the perfect fit is tough. Most readymade stuff just doesn't sit right or misses that personal touch. I started Shyam Ji Tailors to fix that problem - you bring the idea, I stitch it to life.
How We Work Together
- Show me your inspiration, even if it’s just a screenshot or a doodle.
- We’ll sit and chat about what works best for your style and comfort. If I think a cut won’t flatter you, I’ll tell you upfront.
- Once it’s clear, I get to work. Whether it’s a made-to-measure party gown or a simple kurti, expect a fit that feels like it’s yours.
What I Stitch
- Indian & Ethnic Wear: Designer lehengas, personalised blouse design (yes, those tricky backless ones too), salwar kameez, Patiala suits, ghagras, kurtis.
- Indo-Western & Modern: Party gowns, Indo-western outfits, jumpsuits, skirts, all with a custom twist.
My Promise
Been in this line since 1985. For me, it’s not just stitching - it’s about making sure the outfit actually compliments you. Some outfits need extra attention to detail, and I’m honest if something won’t work for your body type. Quality comes first, every single time.
When you’re ready to stop searching and want to wear what you really love, I’m here.
