How buying works
Add to your bag and pay through Receivly by card or bank transfer. Lagos delivery in two days by our own rider, other cities in three.
Every couture piece is cut to you. Book a first fitting; the deposit comes off the garment and the balance is paid in two parts.
If a ready-to-wear piece needs a nip at the waist or a shorter hem, we do it free for twelve months.
Sizes
Our size finder reads three measurements and tells you which size to order, or whether a fitting will serve you better.
Open the size finderLagos orders placed before 2pm leave the next morning. Abuja, Port Harcourt and Enugu take two to three days. International orders ship by courier within five working days.
Unworn ready-to-wear can be exchanged within 14 days. Couture and bridal are made for you, so they are not returnable, which is why we fit three times.
We hold UK 8 to 16 for most pieces and cut UK 6, 18, 20 and 22 to order within a week.
