What is Customizing?
Sizing up hips or bust, cutting to fit petite
or tall, or shortening a length is customizing and usually adds $60 to
the cost of a garment.
Restyling refers to adjustments such as adding sleeves
to a sleeveless style or changing the cut of a skirt on a
dress. This is a longer process and the price will increase
accordingly. There will be an hourly charge for my time.
A phone consultation and approval process is important to
ensure you are happy with the style and accept the costs
involved. If the changes are substantial, a toile (test)
garment may be mailed to you for your approval.
The final garment may take 2 to 12 weeks dependent on the
style involved and your sizing and our schedule at the time
(our average time is 3 weeks).
Sizing and Measurements
For mail order, I will advise you as to which measurements
I require for your particular style garment. Measuring will
take approximately 20 - 30 minutes. It is advisable to have
someone capable to help you. Mistakes can be upsetting and
costly. Giving me your 'usual' dress size is not adequate,
since most stores/designers have their own ideas as to sizing.
I work from 'your' body measurements for the best results. For more information about sizing and how to measure your
body, CLICK HERE.
Custom design/fit service
Available at my studio in Millbrae, California. Please CONTACT ME for
specific directions. For more information
about this service, please CLICK HERE.
Alterations/adjustments
It is possible to mail the garment back for adjustments.
There would be an hourly charge for labor. We can discuss this
before I start.
