Please kindly take note of the following details regarding our alteration services.
We currently offer alteration services exclusively for dresses, jumpsuits and full-length pants. The service is limited to length shortening and does not include tapering, waist adjustments, or other modifications at this time.
• Lead time:
The estimated turnaround time for alterations is up to 7 working days. Our team will notify you once your item is ready for collection.
• Length variation:
As all alterations are done manually, there may be a slight deviation of ±1cm in the final length. We take every precaution to ensure accuracy, but minor differences may occur.
• No exchange or return:
Once an item has been altered, it will no longer be eligible for exchange or return. We recommend double-checking your desired length with our staff before confirming the alteration.
Thank you for your understanding and support as we work towards providing a better fit and longer wear for your favourite pieces.
