How to Order a Custom Jalabiya or Kaftan in Sharjah: Step-by-Step Guide

Ordering a custom jalabiya, kaftan, maghribi or soube at Amirat Al Khaleej takes six steps, from a shop visit to delivery at your door. Most custom orders are ready in 10 to 14 working days, and rush orders can be ready in 48 hours.

  1. Visit the shop or message us

    Come to our shop on Abdullah Bin Salam Street, near Darwish Mosque, Al Mujarrah, Sharjah. We are open Saturday to Thursday, 8 AM to 12 PM and 4 PM to 11 PM, and closed on Friday.

    Can't visit? Send reference photos on WhatsApp to +971 56 722 6191. Our team speaks Arabic, Hindi, Urdu and Bengali.

  2. Decide: readymade or custom

    Browse the readymade collection first. If a piece fits and you love it, you can take it home the same day. If you want something different, we start a custom order.

  3. Choose your design

    Pick a style from our catalogue, show us a photo, or describe your idea. Together we agree the neckline, sleeve shape, length, and where embroidery or stones go.

  4. Choose your fabric

    Touch and compare fabrics in the shop. We help you match the fabric weight to the occasion and the season. You can also bring your own fabric. Our fabric guide explains the options.

  5. Choose your stones and embroidery

    Select the stone type, colour and size, and how much of the garment they cover – a light neckline only, or full panels. You see the price before we start. Our stone work guide shows what each option looks like.

  6. Measurements, making, fitting and delivery

    We take your full measurements, or you send them using our measurement guide. Our workshop cuts, stitches and finishes the piece. You try it on and we adjust anything needed. Then collect it from the shop, or we deliver to your door anywhere in the UAE.
