WhatsApp concierge for Abu Dhabi, UAE
Worldwide Delivery / GCC
Abu Dhabi tends to do its Indian occasion shopping the long way, with a drive up to Meena Bazaar in Bur Dubai, an afternoon on the rails, and an alteration promised in a hurry. We take the drive out of it. Every saree, kaftan and set is cut and hand embellished to order in our UAE atelier, one emirate away, then couriered to your door. The capital keeps a professional calendar, so these pieces are worn to hotel ballroom receptions, formal dinners and long evenings at home. Four to six weeks in the making, then a day or two on the road.
Nothing is sitting in a warehouse. Every piece is cut and hand-finished after you order, which also means it can be customized to you: sizing, blouse, sleeves, drape. Everything below is confirmed for the UAE before it leaves the atelier.
How it works
No forms and no waiting on email. One conversation with one person, from the first question to the day the box arrives.

Sizing, blouse measurements, colour in daylight and the landed cost to Abu Dhabi, all agreed before your piece is cut.
Hand-made to order in 4 to 6 weeks. Then 1 to 2 business days by tracked courier inside the UAE. Steamed, boxed and tracked to your door.
The edit
Hand-embellished and made in small runs. Everything on this page is made to order for Abu Dhabi on the terms above.
Dressed for the calendar
We advise around the GCC season, so the piece you order suits the room you are walking into. Tell us the date early and we will be honest about the making time.
Cut for hotel ballroom receptions and banquet hall evenings, with beadwork built to hold up under bright indoor light. Often paired with a second function up the road in Dubai the following night, so we plan for two evenings, not one.
Cut for evenings hosted at home and in private function rooms. Order autumn pieces by early September so nothing is being chased in October.
The energy sector, finance and diplomatic circuits fill the calendar with dinners where the dress code is quiet but exacting. The kaftan line is cut for that register: restrained hand work, easy to wear seated.
