What you girls may be doing wrong is giving dresses during either eid or shaadi season. That is the time when darzees are very busy and hire karigars that are not very trained. If instead of giving him 10 jaRas at one time, you get two done chances are that only 2 will be screwed. Why dont you girls buy ready made designer stuff from boutiques?

My ammi used to get a kurta shalwar suit made for me every eid, even if I was not at home, from a darzee that had been sewing my clothes since I was very young. He still manages to screw each and every kurta, sometimes it is the sleeves other times it is too baggy same goes with the shalwar, too long, too short.

Now my mother just buys me ready made suits. She now has to work on the shade, I have three shalwar kurtas of exactly the same color.

I was only there for a week so I had no choice but to give a whole bunch of suits at one time. I tried giving them to different tailors (four different ones this time) and all four screwed them up.

Ready made suits are too small on me.
