The making of a suit

Many hands. One suit.

From the first drawn motif to the final fit, follow the craftsmanship behind a Sozni hand-embroidered Kashmiri suit.

  1. Fabric

    Fabric selected

    Fine fabric is carefully selected as the foundation for each suit.

  2. Colour

    Threads meet colour

    The Rangrez dyes the threads in the colours chosen for the design.

  3. Sketch

    Drawn by the Naqash

    The Naqash sketches the pattern, shaping the motifs that will adorn the suit.

  4. Trace

    Traced onto fabric

    The pattern is carefully traced onto the fabric, creating a guide for the needlework.

  5. Handwork

    Embroidered by hand

    Kashmiri artisans follow the traced pattern with fine needlework, building each motif stitch by stitch.

  6. Finish

    Washed and pressed

    After the embroidery is complete, the fabric is washed and pressed before tailoring or preparation as an unstitched suit.

  7. Tailoring

    Finished for your fit

    For stitched orders, our in-house tailors cut and line the suit to your chosen size or measurements. Unstitched orders are prepared as fabric.

  8. Presentation

    Checked and wrapped

    The embroidery and finish are checked before your suit is packed with a complimentary hand-embroidered Kashmiri bag.

Our Family Archive

A 150-Year Family Legacy

Our Great-Grandfather

Peerzada Saif-Ud-Din

Our great-grandfather began working with Kashmir’s master craftsmen around 150 years ago, beginning a family relationship with Kashmiri craft that continues to this day.

Our Grand Father & his brothers

Peerzada Bashir-Ud-Din

Our grandfather, together with his brothers, carried the family’s work beyond Kashmir. They travelled across India, including Allahabad and Varanasi, introducing Kashmiri craftsmanship to customers far beyond the Valley and building relationships across the country.

Our Father & his brother

Peerzada Naseer Ahmad

Our father and his brother worked alongside our grandfather from the ground up, helping shape every part of the business. They expanded manufacturing, built a strong wholesale presence in the local Kashmiri market, and established the family business as a trusted and respected name in Kashmir.

Fourth Generation

Noumaan & Hamees

Today, the fourth generation carries the family’s work forward through KashmKari. Building on the relationships, craftsmanship and knowledge passed down through our family, we are taking Kashmiri craft directly to customers around the world while continuing to work with artisans here in Kashmir.
