Alterations and Care
There is no Renter-Renter shipping.
All rented items are shipped from our studio directly to you and are returned to us for cleaning, inspection and any necessary TLC. Cleaning each outfit between uses is not only a legal requirement to keep you safe, it is important to the ongoing upkeep of our inventory and profoundly affects the next renter's experience.
To ensure the perfect fit, we will undertake any minor alterations for you ahead of shipping, at no extra cost. There is no reason for you to use any type of glue or pin, so please do not!
