From England to Islamabad: Seeking Blazers, Shalwar Kameez & Custom Engravings for a Wedding!

Twin Cities

Hey everyone!

I’m M22 British Pakistani, and I’ll be visiting Islamabad next month for my sister’s wedding. I’ve left my shopping a bit last minute, so I’m looking for some local recommendations.

1.	I’m searching for a good place in Islamabad or Rawalpindi known for quality blazers, something with peak lapels, just to wear over my shalwar kameez. I’m not looking for a full suit, just the blazer.
2.	I’d love to know about places that do custom engravings on shalwar kameez cuffs, like adding my initials. I usually get this done in the UK, but I’m not sure how common it is in Pakistan, so any suggestions would be amazing!
3.	I’m also looking for recommendations for high quality shalwar kameez. I’ve heard Bonanza and J. are good options, but I’d love to know what others recommend.
4.	Lastly, I’m looking for skilled tailors in the area. I’ve tried a few before but was disappointed, so any recommendations for great tailors would be super helpful.

Thanks so much for your help!
