ALTERATIONS AND OVERDYES

We want to address any issues you might be having with your garment as eco-friendly as possible, so basic alterations and overdyes are free if the Returns Request Form is submitted within 7 days of the post marked receiving date. We will only need to charge you for the cost of return shipping from our studio back to you and you will be responsible for shipping garment to us. Please keep in mind that we offer custom clothing (not tailored) that requires the body to be present. For this type of adjustment, we recommend that you establish a relationship with a local tailor (most dry cleaners).

Items purchased from our Sale Page are not eligible for free alterations and overdyes but we can do them for a fee.

If it is past our 7 day deadline or your item was purchased from our SALE PAGE or ONE OF A KIND PAGE we charge $30 per overdye or hemming.

ALTERATIONS

We offer basic alterations such as hemming. We no longer have the time to take on more in depth tailoring such as taking in as pinned or design changes, we recommend a local tailor (most Dry Cleaners) for this level of alteration.  Please review our Size ChartFabric Size Recommendations, and Length Charts carefully before placing your order, as we are not able to make garments bigger or add length later. If a simple alteration is all you need a local tailor can probably take care of this for less than the round trip shipping cost to have us do it. For price comparison this is typically about $28-$40 total for shipping both ways if your in the U.S.

OVERDYES

If you are not crazy about the color you originally picked we offer overdyes. This is also a great option for a garment refresh. Please double check which overdye colors are POSSIBLE for your original color choice before making your selection on the form. Over-dyeing your garment with another color will create a unique color that combines the first color as a base tone to the new overdye color. Garments that have been stained or washed with wax based detergents can produce variations in the way the fiber will take the dye.

ALTERATIONS and OVERDYES will be added to our production cycle so please allow 2-4 weeks plus shipping time for alterations to be processed. If you need things quicker or require tailoring please contact a local tailor.

You will still be responsible for return shipping and the shipping cost to send garment back to you from the studio. Please wait to receive our assessment before sending garment(s) back to our studio.  We will provide you with paperwork to include with your garment(s) and instructions for sending garment(s) back to us.  Please allow 1-3 business days for our assessment response. Please note that our Main Office is closed Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
