Description
· Most of the garments are preloved; therefore each is checked and described as accurately as possible, however occasionally we may unintentionally miss something. Should this be the case let us know.
· Please bear in mind that if you are buying a vintage or second-hand Item you should expect some degree of wear. Occasionally these may need washing before wearing - should this be the case it will say so in the details. Some items can be hand washed in cold water separately however many of these do not have washing instructions. If this is the case, then dry cleaning is recommended particularly if heavily embellished or pure silks.
· The reproduction of colours is as accurate as the photographic and production process will reasonably allow.
Measurements
· All sizes are measured in inches and converted to cm (these are rounded down).
· To gauge if an item will fit we recommend that you check the measurements provided against your own current garments if unsure.
· The sizes quoted i.e. 10, 12 etc. are given just an approximation so that it gives you guideline - it is not a definitive size.

General
· Any props / accessories shown in the pictures are not included in the sale unless otherwise stated.
· Beading / embroidery - All noticeable defects are noted in the listing however as many of the garments are extensively embellished with beadwork / sequins etc. you may find that the odd couple have come away. This is not necessarily a defect; it is a result of the type of work on the garment. Unless it is very noticeable, it will not be mentioned in the description.
· Occasionally outfits may have a smell of paraffin, which is due to the process used to dry clean garments after embroidery. This smell will evaporate once the garment has been removed from packing.
