Some orders may have special terms and conditions, and a copy will be issued to you via email. Please ensure you keep these documents for your records.

BRIDESMAIDS OR BULK ORDERS

  • If you’re planning to order dresses for your bridesmaids or need multiple units of the same dress, we highly recommend reaching out to us before completing your purchase.
  • Ordering all dresses at once is crucial to maintain consistent colour and size availability, especially considering that certain styles may be discontinued in the future. This ensures your bridal party’s attire will be matching.

 

OUR FABRICS

  • We offer items that may feature new and unique fabric styles, and if you have any doubts about a specific item or the fabric used, please reach out to us via email before completing your purchase.
  • Sequin items may experience sequin loss, which is a normal occurrence and not considered a fault.
  • Glitter-covered items are generously packed with extra glitter to maximise sparkle. When opening these items, do so over a plastic bag to catch any loose glitter. Again, any glitter loss is considered normal and not a fault.
  • Some dresses may incorporate sequin or embroidery appliques, and since each one is hand-placed, they will be unique and may be aligned differently compared to the image shown on our website. This variation is due to the handmade nature of these styles and is not considered a fault.
  • In rare instances, some loose threads may appear during the production of an item. Please note that any item with a loose thread is not considered faulty.
