Why You Only Need Two Measurements for a Thobe

When it comes to tailored clothing, most people expect a long list of measurements. Chest, waist, sleeve, shoulder — the process can feel overwhelming. At Anāqah, we’ve simplified everything. You only need two measurements to achieve a tailored thobe: your height and your UK shirt size.

The Problem with Traditional Tailoring

Traditional tailoring often requires 8–10 measurements. While this can work, it’s not always practical — especially for online orders. It can lead to mistakes, confusion, and inconsistent fits.

Our Solution: Smart Tailoring

At Anāqah, we’ve refined a system based on:
• Real tailoring data
• Standardised UK sizing
• Proportional fitting techniques

By combining your height (for length and proportions) and shirt size (for upper body fit), we can accurately tailor your thobe without the complexity.

Why It Works
• UK shirt size determines chest, shoulders, and sleeve proportions
• Height ensures correct thobe length and overall balance
• Our tailoring process adjusts all other measurements proportionally

The Result

A clean, tailored fit — without the hassle.

Conclusion

Tailoring doesn’t have to be complicated. With Anāqah, simplicity meets precision.
