The panjabi is the heart of a Bangladeshi man's wardrobe — for Eid, weddings, Pohela Boishakh, or just looking sharp. I'm a personal shopper in Dhaka: I go to the brand outlets and boutiques myself, check the fabric and fit, send you photos before I buy, and ship it safely to your door. Living abroad shouldn't mean settling for the wrong size from a website that never replies.
If you search for a panjabi to buy from outside Bangladesh, almost every result is either a local Dhaka store that only delivers inside the country, a brand site that is confusing to order from abroad, or a marketplace listing where you are trusting a single photo. You can't feel the fabric, you can't check the real size, and if it arrives wrong, sending it back from another continent is rarely worth it.
I work differently. You tell me the occasion, the look, and your measurements. I go to the real shops in Dhaka — Aarong, boutique designers, and trusted markets — look at the actual garments, check the stitching and the fit against your sizes, and send you clear photos before you pay a taka. You pick the one you love, I buy it at the real shop price, and I ship it carefully to your door. Product cost, my flat fee, packaging, and shipping are all listed separately — never a hidden markup.
Shopping for the whole family? See my buy a saree from Bangladesh page for the women in your life, or my gifts from Bangladesh page — and just ask if you want a coordinated Eid or wedding order.
This is where most online panjabi orders go wrong. Bangladeshi sizing is not the same as US, UK, or EU sizing, and it changes from brand to brand — a "large" in one shop can fit like a "medium" in another. Buying blind is a gamble, and a panjabi that doesn't fit is an expensive disappointment for an Eid morning.
So before I buy, I get it right. Send me your chest, shoulder, length, and sleeve measurements, or simply tell me the size of a panjabi or shirt that already fits you well. I measure the actual garment in the shop, compare it to your numbers, and tell you honestly whether it will fit. For weddings or Eid, where fit really matters, I can arrange simple local tailoring or alterations before it ships — far cheaper and faster than fixing it in your own country.
When you ask for a brand like Aarong or a particular boutique, you deserve the real thing — not a copy from an unknown seller. Before I buy, and before I ship, I check:
The same honesty runs through my real-vs-machine Jamdani guide — worth a read if you want a Jamdani-cotton panjabi and care about authenticity.
A panjabi is light fabric — easy to pack and hard to damage — so it ships affordably and arrives well. I fold it carefully, wrap it against moisture, and send it with full tracking.
| Carrier | Speed | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| DHL / FedEx / UPS Express | 5-10 days | Eid and wedding orders with a deadline |
| Bangladesh Post EMS | 10-20 days | Non-urgent orders, to save on cost |
Because it's clothing, most panjabi orders stay well within personal-use customs limits — but rules differ by destination. Check your country: USA, UK, Canada, Australia, Europe, Middle East. For how duty works in general, see my 2026 customs duty guide.
Eid and wedding season are the busiest times in Dhaka's panjabi shops, and the best boutique designs sell out early. If you have a date to dress for, message me as far ahead as you can — ideally two to three weeks before you need it in hand. That gives time to find the right piece, send you photos to choose from, handle any alterations, and ship by express courier with room to spare. Leave it to the last week and the choice shrinks and the shipping costs more.

You always get an itemized quote with nothing added later: the real shop price of the panjabi, my flat service fee, packaging, and the courier cost — each shown separately. The panjabi itself ranges widely by fabric and work: a simple cotton panjabi is inexpensive, a fine hand-embroidered or silk piece for a wedding costs more. Because panjabis are light, shipping stays affordable, especially if you add a few items to one parcel. Tell me what you're after and I'll send a free, no-obligation quote within 24 hours. No upfront fee, no surprises.
Yes. Tell me what you want — a brand like Aarong, a boutique design, a Jamdani-cotton panjabi, a colour, or a photo of a style you like — plus your size or measurements. I go to the shops and markets in Dhaka in person, hand-pick the right piece, send you clear photos before I buy, and ship it to your door with full tracking. You see the real price plus a clear, separate service fee before you pay anything.
Bangladeshi panjabi sizing is not the same as US or UK sizing, and it varies brand to brand, so send me your chest, shoulder, length and sleeve measurements, or the size of a panjabi or shirt that already fits you well. I check the actual garment's measurements in the shop, compare them to yours, and tell you honestly if it will fit before you pay. For weddings or Eid where fit really matters, I can also arrange simple local tailoring or alterations.
Everyday cotton panjabis, semi-formal and slim-fit styles, hand-embroidered and boutique designer panjabis, Jamdani-cotton and silk-cotton panjabis, and formal silk panjabis with zari or karchupi work for weddings and Eid. I can also source matching pyjama bottoms, koti (waistcoats), and children's panjabis so a father and son can match. Tell me the occasion and budget and I'll find the right tier.
Yes. I shop the real brand outlets and trusted boutiques in Dhaka in person, so you get a genuine piece, not a copy from an unknown seller. I send you photos of the actual garment, the label, and the price tag where there is one, so you can see exactly what you are getting. If a design you want is sold out, I will tell you honestly and suggest the closest genuine alternative rather than substitute something without asking.
