Taking measurements — the first step to a thobe that suits you

Your measurements at Ramada Al-Raqi Tailoring are always taken by a specialist tailor, and we keep them for your future orders. From outside Jeddah you can send your measurements electronically.

Two ways to take measurements

  • At the branch

    A specialist tailor measures you and carries out what you want: wide or slim, short or long.
  • Electronically, from outside Jeddah

    Send your measurements on WhatsApp and we arrange the order and shipping.

Tips before measuring

  • Tell the tailor the cut you want: wide or slim, short or long.
  • If you have a thobe whose size suits you, bring it — it is a useful reference.
  • Your measurements are kept with us, so you do not need to be measured again with each order.

Questions about measurements

Do you keep my measurements?

Yes, we keep them for your future orders.

Do I have to come to the branch?

No, those outside Jeddah can send their measurements electronically.

Do you tailor from my own fabric?

Yes, we tailor from the branch’s fabric or from yours. If the thobe needs altering later and the fabric came from outside the shop, we ask you for an extra piece of the same type and model.
