A good tailor is hard to find. The best ones can sew up magic and give you custom-fitted clothes that fit perfectly, which are a rarity and we don’t blame you if you don’t want to share your favourite Master’s name. But we are not like that. We love to share, and so, here, we give you a list of boutiques and neighbourhood tailors who do a stellar job of putting together salwar suits, blouses, dresses, and pants. You can thank us now!
8 Best Tailors In Bangalore For All Your Stitching and Customisation Needs
Here's A List Of Best Tailors In Bangalore
Ajaz Ladies Tailor, Commercial Street
Head here to get perfectly fitting blouses for every occasion — from simple cuts to ones with fancy bead, embroidery, and stonework (he’ll whip out his iPad and show you all the designs you can choose from). Also, their gorgeously put-together lehengas. We once spotted one with different kinds of lace, and we couldn’t take our eyes off it. You will have to get your own fabric. You can even source trinkets from the nearby Surya Emporium to jazz up your blouse. If there is an occasion that you need the blouse for, then make sure you give it to him at least 15 days ahead. And a couple of days before delivery, call him and let him know when you’ll be dropping by so that you can get your blouse in time.
