7weven's Service to Global Charities
As part of your business with us, we are proud to tell you that 10% of our profits from every transaction will be donated to one of the following charities of your choice.
As global citizens, we are perceptive of the ongoing challenges that every community is facing. That’s why we decided to take the initiative and support the hardworking charities that are fighting hard to bring about positive change in every aspect of our lives.
How does it work? Well, we will do all the work. All you have to do is simply go about your transaction and before you proceed to checkout, simply select from one of the charities or causes of your choice (or if you’d like, we can pick one for you). Once the transaction is complete, we will make the necessary arrangements to send the donation on your behalf at the end of every month.

Why bespoke clothing?
Finding the perfect fit with off-the-rack clothes can be difficult at times. Most of us are aware of how troublesome it can be to roam through crowded stores and try on multiple items until finding something that fits reasonably well. Alterations to off-the-rack clothing is an option that is available, but the alteration bill can drastically increase the total cost of the item.
Custom clothing can potentially help solve this issue. 7weven’s trained professional fashion designers and tailors focus on the individuals’ specific requirements including the fabric, style and other personal custom requirements (e.g., style of neckline and sleeves length of a dress/top) in order to ensure that our clients receive clothes that are truly made just for them!
