Mannequin Tailoring Workshop

Afghanistan

My name is Sitara Ikrami, and I am from Kunduz Province, Afghanistan. I have completed up to grade 14 and have seven years of experience in tailoring and fashion design. Although I have been in the field for years, I officially launched my tailoring workshop just one year ago, driven purely by my personal passion and vision. I founded Mannequin Tailoring Workshop to turn my dream into reality. Our shop is located near Cinema Street, across from the provincial building, Kocha Mabes, and today we proudly operate with a talented team of 20 staff members. My motivation comes from within, and every part of this business reflects the effort I have put into becoming a designer. We offer a wide range of tailored products including bridal dresses, formal gowns, leather embroidery, beadwork, Kurti and pants sets, and custom clothing for children and men, all based on client requests. I am a professional fashion designer and pattern maker, having studied under Iranian fashion instructors during my time in Iran. While I do not have a physical storefront for direct sales at the moment, I regularly receive custom orders from clients in Germany, Turkey, Moscow, and several provinces across Afghanistan. By joining Aseel, I hope to showcase my work to a global audience and continue growing a business that blends culture, fashion, and empowerment. Thank you for supporting Mannequin Tailoring Workshop — where every design begins with purpose and ends in elegance.
