We do not sell via the Internet because a high percentage of garments sold in this way are returned.
As we would have no control over such garments once they leave us (they may get damaged or even have been worn) we could not then offer them for sale in our shop.
We do offer a personal service. We can advise you on the best outfits for your special occasion; you can try on your choices with the matching shoes, handbag and hat.
We will fit the outfit on you and if necessary have it altered perfectly for you. This is your special day and we want to help make it special. This we cannot do for Internet sales.
