The situation

What do Fashion, Tailoring & Boutiques need from a website?

Kenyan fashion sells through pictures. Customers discover a boutique on Instagram or TikTok, message on WhatsApp to ask about sizes, and then want to know how to pay and how long delivery to their town will take. A website turns that scattered chat into a proper shop window with a gallery, size guide, prices and checkout.

Tailoring is a big part of this story. KNBS's 2016 MSME survey found that making clothing was the largest manufacturing activity among small businesses, well ahead of food processing and furniture. Many of those tailors and designers now take custom orders, from kitenge outfits to school uniforms and wedding wear, and need a way to collect measurements and deposits without confusion.

We build fashion and tailoring websites that showcase collections, take custom order requests with measurements and accept M-Pesa payments through an online store. Your boutique's hosting includes free SSL, and email on your own domain makes bulk orders from schools and companies easier to handle.

Common problems

What usually goes wrong?

Sales stuck in DMs

Customers ask the same price and size questions in Instagram and WhatsApp messages, and orders get lost between chats.

Custom orders without clear records

Measurements written on paper or sent as voice notes lead to remakes, disputes and delayed fittings.

An audience you do not own

An algorithm change or a hacked account can wipe out the following you spent years building.

Questions

Fashion, Tailoring & Boutiques: questions answered

How do I sell clothes online in Kenya?
Start with a website that has an online store, clear product photos, sizes, delivery charges and M-Pesa checkout. Then share product links on Instagram, TikTok and WhatsApp so followers land directly on the item they saw. Keeping orders on your own site gives you a record of every sale and every customer.
Can a tailor take custom orders through a website?
Yes. A custom order form can collect measurements, fabric choices, reference photos and the date the outfit is needed. You review each request, confirm the price and take a deposit. Having measurements saved in writing reduces mistakes and makes repeat orders for the same client much quicker to handle.
Is a website better than just using Instagram?
Instagram is excellent for discovery, but you do not control it. A website lets customers see full collections, sizes and prices without messaging you, it can appear in Google searches for boutiques in your town, and it stays online even if a social account is restricted. Most growing fashion brands use both together.
How do boutiques handle delivery to other towns?
Most boutiques list delivery charges by region or courier, such as a flat rate within their own town and a higher rate for upcountry parcels. Showing those charges at checkout avoids surprises. Your website can also explain how long custom pieces take, so customers order early enough for weddings and events.
Can schools and companies place bulk uniform orders online?
We can add a dedicated enquiry page for schools, churches and companies that need uniforms or branded clothing in quantity. It collects sizes, quantities and deadlines, and you reply with a formal quotation from your business email address, which looks far more professional than quoting from a personal Gmail account.
Will lots of product photos slow my website down?
Large photos can slow a site on mobile data, so we compress images and size them for phones before they go live. That keeps galleries sharp while pages still load quickly for shoppers browsing on a matatu or during a lunch break, which is when many fashion purchases actually happen.
