The Art of Tailoring: Perfecting the Traditional Kurta Fit

A quintessential element of Indian ethnic wear for men, kurta has been cherished for its elegance, comfort, and versatility for decades. Embodying the rich cultural heritage of India, it is a garment that transcends generations and has stood the test of time. Kurta’s appeal is not just in the intricate and attractive designs but also in the perfect fit. Just like a well-fitted suit, a well-fitted kurta can elevate one’s look, no matter the occasion.  

And that is why, a seemingly simple-looking garment which is listed as one of the most common Indian traditional men’s clothing — kurta — undergoes a complex design and execution process that requires precision and attention to detail.

Stage 1: Crafting the perfect fit

The journey of creating a bespoke piece of Indian ethnic wear for men begins with precise measurements. The fit of a kurta is crucial in ensuring comfort and style. At Prestige The Man Store, our craftsmen take precise measurements of the wearer’s body, with close attention to the shoulders, chest, waist, and hips. We believe clothes are an external manifestation of oneself and so should accentuate the best parts of the wearer’s personality. Hence, getting the right fit is the first step in that journey. A good kurta should look like it’s made for you and at PTMS, we strive for such precision.

Stage 2: Finding the right fabric

When it comes to determining a certain look that reflects the wearer and complements the occasion that it is made for, a primary step is finding the right fabric. From style to comfort, a lot depends on the choice of fabric making this step highly crucial.

Once the measurements are taken, our talented team of craftsmen choose the most appropriate fabric that lends the garment its distinct style and comfort. From cotton, silk, linen to velvet, jacquard, etc., we have a vast collection of fabrics to choose from for any occasion. A popular choice is linen and cotton kurtas that are lightweight, breathable and comfortable to daily wear and silk for occasions.

Stage 3: Delving into designing

Once the appropriate fabric is decided, the next step in the garment creation process is designing and embellishments. Be it simple lines, embroidered geometrical patterns or intricate zari work, the designs and embellishments are decided based on the wearer’s preferences and the occasion.  Our craftsmen, from talented tailors to weavers, all work together to create a unique design the complements the fabric and enhances the entire look of the kurta.

Stage 4: Crafting a bespoke Kurta
