To correct an uneven or drooping daman hem on kalidar kurtas from Kapra.pk, hang the stitched garment on a padded hanger for 24 hours to let diagonal bias seams stretch. Then re-mark hem distance evenly from the floor using a chalk ruler before trimming.
Flared kalidar panels and A-line kurtas cut along the bias drape under gravity, causing side corners or center backs to droop unevenly. Allowing the garment to drop before leveling ensures crisp horizontal daman symmetry.
Key Specifications & Decision Matrix
| Kameez Silhouette | Fabric Cut Angle | Expected Bias Drop | Resting Period | Finishing Method |

Recommended Step-by-Step Procedure
1. Suspend Garment on Hanger
Place the stitched kurta on a firm hanger in a clean closet space for 24 hours. The gravity allows all bias-cut kali panels to stretch completely.
2. Measure From Floor Upward
Put the kurta on a dress form or individual wearing heels. Use a measuring tape from the floor up to mark a consistent parallel daman level.
3. Trim Excess and Finish with Facing Patti
Cut along the corrected chalk line and finish the daman with a clean 1.5-inch matching fabric facing patti to weight the hem cleanly.

Frequently Asked Questions (Ahem Sawalat)
Why do darzi-stitched kalidar frocks sag at the sides?
Any fabric cut diagonal to the weave (bias) relaxes and stretches under its own weight over time. Professional tailors always let bias garments drop before final hemming.
