Fehumaa Tailors Alterations, made to measure and uniforms, on Iskandharu Magu since 2011

Dhivehi dress and kasabu work

The traditional dress made properly, with hand worked kasabu, from 900 rufiyaa for the making.

The Dhivehi dress, made in the ladies section, in your cloth or in cloth we help you choose.

Making is from 900 rufiyaa. The kasabu neckline is quoted on its own, from 1,400 for a simple band to 4,500 for a wide worked collar, because it is hand work and the price is hours rather than material. Two people in this shop do it, and in the weeks before Eid they are both booked.

What we will tell you honestly is which parts are hand work and which are not. A machine worked neckline is a perfectly good thing and it costs a quarter of the price, and a shop that charges you for hand work and gives you machine work is common enough that you should ask. Ask us and you will be shown the difference in the shop.

Five to six weeks for a dress with worked kasabu, and longer if you want it for Eid, because everybody wants it for Eid.
