When shopping for Eastern wear online, especially for special occasions like weddings or major events, one question comes up time and time again: should you go custom or choose something pre-designed?
At Yayarar, we specialise in both custom-designed pieces and what we like to call ready-designed wear — and we’re here to help you choose the best option for your unique needs.
What is Custom-Made Eastern Wear?
Custom-designed outfits are made entirely from scratch, tailored down to the tiniest detail. From the colour of the thread, the shade of the sequins, the embroidery patterns, the fabric type, and even the cut and fit. This is haute couture- completely one of one.
Who is custom wear perfect for?
Brides or grooms with highly specific style preferences
Those recreating designer or runway looks
Plus-size clients who need a flawless fit
Clients seeking absolute exclusivity. We never replicate a custom piece
Our custom bridal and groom outfits are hand-beaded, hand-stitched, and crafted with intricate detail. The process typically takes 2 to 3 months because it’s nothing short of wearable art. Our prices for custom designs range from R17,000 to R47,000 depending on complexity - our most exclusive creation to date.
If you want a sherwani that mirrors the bride’s embroidery, or a lehenga that matches your exact dream Pinterest board, this is the route for you.
Pop us a mail on info@yayararsa.com and let's get the conversation going.
What About Our "Ready-to-Wear" (AKA Ready-Designed) Range?
We use the term ready-designed because while these styles are already designed, they are not off-the-rack. Once you order, they’re still stitched to your measurements- meaning you still receive an outfit that's perfectly tailored to your body. No need for alterations, and no extra tailoring cost.
Why go ready-designed?
You want a beautiful, luxe outfit with a shorter turnaround time
You want premium style without the full custom price
You're looking for a pre-designed look that’s still unique
These pieces range between R9,000 and R15,000 and include national delivery. And just like our custom range- we only sell one of each design. So you’re still getting exclusivity.
The Perfect In-Between: Custom-Inspired, Fabric-Driven Styles
Not every client wants to start from scratch, and not everyone wants a set design. That’s where our third option comes in- send us your inspiration pics, and we’ll bring the vision to life using exclusive pre-beaded fabrics available in our studio.
This is a smart way to get a designer look with more flexibility and a quicker delivery. These styles typically range from R6,000 to R11,000, depending on fabric choice and detail. Please reach out on info@yayararsa.com for an actual quote based on what you would like :)
