I love the
outfits in your gallery. However, I want small changes made, like long sleeves
instead of short, longer blouse to cover my midriff, etc. is it possible?
Yes, all special requests are accommodated. While most changes are free of cost,
any substantial changes resulting in extra cost for us may result in a marginal
change in price. Details of ALL Changes/ Special Instructions MUST be repeated
via email after order.
We have recently had cases, where the customer has expected his/her order to be
executed, incorporating changes suggested by customer via email, weeks even
months before actual date of order. We will NOT check email history before
executing an order. If no email containing Special Instructions / Changes is
received AFTER order is placed, order will be executed without any changes.
My outfit
is not the exact shade of cream as the outfit shown on your site ?
Please be aware that actual color may differ slightly from that shown. While the
essential color will remain the same, that is pastel pink will be pastel pink
and turquoise will be turquoise, the actual shade may differ. Minor differences
in exact shade of color differ due to lighting differences, individual
photographer styles, film development differences, scanner differences and
individual pc monitor color settings.

CLOTHING
CARE
COTTON
is water-absorbent. Whites can be bleached lightly, but not treated, printed or
colored cottons. Before washing vegetable dyed cotton, test for colorfastness by
wetting a small corner to see if it bleeds. Soak in cold or tepid water, dry in
shade and iron with hot steam.
KNITS
are made from looped fibres and can absorb air and water. Wash in cold water and
dry flat. Iron on low heat and store folded on broad hangers.
LACE
is an intricate pattern made of synthetic or natural yarns, sometimes stitched
onto a base. It can stretch and lose shape if handled poorly. Dry-cleaning is
reccomended. Hand-wash at home with a sponge soaked in mild solution of liquid
soap and lukewarm water. Spread the lace flat and blot clean. Never bleach.
Ironing not reccomended.
WOOL
has high elasticity, is flame resistant and has high moisture absorbing quality.
Wool should be professionally cleaned. If you must wash at home, use a mild
liquid detergent and dry it flat. It can be steam pressed at very low
temperatures, however some wools like angora shrink easily so ironing is best
avoided.
