Commissions
If you like my work, why not commission me to make something custom and completely unique for you?
Have as little or as much input as you like!
I know not everyone's a designer and I'd be happy to work with you to turn your concept into a concrete idea.
Costumes for everyone!
I make costumes
for every
size and shape,
no exceptions.
Inspiration from any source!
I can work from photos, fashion plates, sketches or even fabrics that you've found.
Queries are free!
There's no need to go ahead with an order if you decide against it or the price wasn't what you were expecting.
How to go about commissioning me:
Step 1: Message me
Commissions start with a casual conversation through my email or social media regarding what you would like. After a couple of questions, I can give you a quote and you can decide whether not you want to go ahead with the order.
Step 2: Payment
I usually do custom orders through paypal as I can easily write out an invoice and send it to you so you have a record of the payment. You do not need a paypal account and all I need is your email to send the invoice to. I put my terms and conditions at the bottom of every invoice, or you can also find them below.
Once I have received your payment, I will purchase any fabric needed, ask for relevant measurements and let you know when I start making your product.
Step 3: Making
This is the most time-consuming part! I often have multiple orders on at any given time so please feel free to message me for updates. Otherwise, I will message you when I've finished your product or if I need your input on any design decisions. If you have told me that you need your product by a certain date I will make sure to get it done by then with time for shipping.
Step 4: Shipping
Unless we have discussed otherwise, I will send your parcel through Royal Mail with a tracking number that I will share with you. I often include a note, so if you are buying for someone else please let me know their name and I can include it in the parcel.
Step 5: Enjoy!
Fingers crossed the product you receive is what you were expecting and fits you well. If you would like to leave me a review for my website you can either message me or fill in the form at the bottom of the page! If you are unhappy with your product in any way you can reach out to me and we can come to an amiable arrangement.
Terms and Conditions
Payment
Payment must be sent upon receiving this invoice, unless an alternate arrangement has been discussed beforehand. I will not start working on your order until payment has been received as I need to cover costs for fabric and ensure you are committed to commissioning me.
Processing Time
I try to complete every order within a two month time frame from when the order was first placed, unless a completion date has been given. If you have not already discussed an end date with me and need your product within a certain time frame, please contact me in the same way that you placed the order and make me aware.
Alterations
If you are not happy with the fit of your product then I will gladly alter it for you. Unfortunately return postage must be paid by the customer but I will not ask any extra for the cost it takes to send back to you. Please contact me if you would like me to alter an item for you.
Exchanges
Due to the custom nature of my products, I can not offer exchanges. The only exception to this would be my ‘standard’ size range, for example my Victorian or Regency corsets, which I can swap for a smaller size if desired. Return postage must be paid by the customer and time must be allowed for the new corset to be made.
Returns
If you are really not happy with your product and would not be satisfied with an alteration or exchange, reach out to me and I can issue you a refund. Returning the product you are unhappy with would be appreciated, but not necessary for me to issue you a refund.
Cancellations
I will only accept cancellations within the first 24 hours upon your payment of the invoice. If you contact me within that time frame I can issue you a refund.
