Deadlines

1. We will do our best endeavors to meet deadlines if you inform us about them at the initial consultation and provided you co-operate fully in terms of making decisions quickly and making yourself the groups members (as in Bridesmaids) available for fittings. However, unless it is stated explicitly in the contract, time shall not be of the essence in performance.

3.  Where a weight loss plan, pregnancy or illness / recovery is a factor, please let us know. Weight loss programs MUST stop when the fittings begin. Any major changes after this time will potentially mean your custom garment will no longer fit you at all – in this case you will be asked to pay for a replacement garment IN ADDITION to your original order.

4. For the purposes of measuring accurately, clients should be prepared to remove outer garments. Measuring over opaque tights and a close-fitting t-shirt combined with a supportive bra is acceptable.

Appointments

We see clients on an appointment basis only. We reserve the right to refuse, door knocking for an emergency service without prior appointment being booked.

Appointments for fittings last approximately 45 minutes per person / garment from the appointment time. Longer appointments may apply for the fitting of multiple garment orders and will be made as appropriate. Many fittings take under 30 minutes.

We will be able to see a maximum of 2 to 3 members at each appointment to help us concentrate on each client and the details accurately.

5. Please email at least 48 hours in advance to cancel appointments. Missed or late appointments will incur extra charges.

6. Under 18’s. A parent or guardian must accompany with the child at all times. A dressmaker’s premises in not the safest place for young children. Hence, no extra children should be brought to the appointment unless there is an additional person to solely care for the child / children.

7. When fitting or measuring adults, only the client and the dressmaker are to be present. There may also be another dressmaker or assistant / trainee present as well. All other accompanying persons will be asked to wait outside the room in the waiting area. If more than 1 person accompanying the client, only the client and another accompanied member will be able to attend the premises. The rest of the members will be requested to wait outside the premises. Please do not bring children to any fittings unless you have an additional adult to look after them while getting fitted or the fittings are for the child themselves. You will be asked to reschedule your fitting if you ignore this request. Contact us in advance if you have a special need to bring children along as we will need to be able to see if we are able to do it at a timing when we can have a staff member to attend to the children while we complete our appointment with you. A child’s safety is always our priority and to keep to it, we surely need to have one of the staff free without appointments to take care of them.

PATTERNS & MATERIALS

1. Where you supply patterns or materials, it is your responsibility to ensure that they are fit for the intended purpose. We reserve the right to refuse to work with unsuitable materials but if a client insists on using the fabrics we suggest not to, we are not liable for any problems incurring as a result of unsuitable materials being used, should the project proceed.
