Custom Order Policies
Placing Order and Payment:
Custom orders generally last between 6 and 10 weeks to complete. Seller does not guarantee the availability of rush production. However, in limited cases, rush production and delivery within 3 weeks will be subject to an additional fee of $ 1,000.00 per garment.
A 50% deposit of quoted price is required to receive a customized sketch and fabric samples. Garment production will begin after approval of the sketch and fabric samples, and after receiving buyer’s measurements.
Following approval, alterations or additions to the initial design are subject to additional charges and must be paid at the time of alteration or addition. Payment in full is required to obtain finished garment possession.
Measurements and Fittings:
For local orders, Petra can measure in person at her studio. Long distance clients will receive instructions on how to correctly measure. Please follow the instructions carefully as incorrect measurement can result in wrong size of the garment and additional charges to correct the issues.
