Darzi

Born in that city, she grew up in Matheran Pedestrian Hill Station, where she and her sister apprenticed with the local darzi (tailor). ❋ Unknown (2009)

The darzi loaded her up with several kameezes and dupattas that needed repair or embellishing, which Nazia took gratefully. ❋ AMJED QAMAR (2008)

Horror of horrors, luxe brands found themselves coexisting cheek and jowl with the darzi and the paanwala, almost-and had to exit earlier than planned. ❋ Unknown (2010)

The tradesmen like lohar, tarkhan (carpenter), nai (barber) and darzi (tailor) traditionally working in the villages since centuries - mostly paid in the form of grain at the end of each rabi and kharif seasons - are no more pursuing their vocations. ❋ Unknown (2008)

I wasn’t sure what to say, since they were both awake, but I remembered that you really only go out to get the sewing, so that’s what I told them, that you went to the darzi. ❋ AMJED QAMAR (2008)

Nazia glanced at Seema and answered in a rush, Yes, but it’s almost too much with Seema baji’s work, the other house on the street, and the sewing from the darzi. ❋ AMJED QAMAR (2008)

“Why didn’t you tell me you were going to the darzi?” ❋ AMJED QAMAR (2008)

"[oh] [your such a] darzi" ❋ TO THE MAX (2005)
