Terms and Conditions

General Information:

THREADS BY DEB LLC (Threads) will not work on your garment until you have read and agreed to the following terms and conditions:

1. General: These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) constitute the entire understanding and agreement between the Customer and Threads relating to the purchase of the garment alterations described on the invoice (the “Services”) and supersedes and replaces any and all prior agreements, whether written or oral, that may exist between them with respect thereto. These Terms may be amended only in writing signed by the Customer and Threads.

2. Services and Charges: Threads will provide and charge only for services agreed upon by the Customer and Threads.

3. Rush fee: Any alterations requested, whether additional or for the first time, will be charged a rush fee if requested within fourteen (14) days of the Customer’s wear date. The rush fee for all garments is one hundred dollars ($100.00).

 

 

Fittings:

1. Acceptance- Threads will begin to perform the Services only upon receiving an agreement of acceptance of these terms from the Customer for the Services as well as a Good Faith Deposit.

2. Good Faith Deposit- A good faith deposit of $100 for bridal gowns and formalwear (Prom, Bridesmaid's and Mother's Dresses) will be collected at the time of scheduling our consultation and will be deducted from the total cost of alterations. Should alterations cost less than the deposit, a refund will be issued at the time of pick up. If it is determined at the initial fitting that the deposit exceeds the total cost of alterations, a lesser amount of deposit will be required.

3. Measurements- Services provided are based on the measurements provided at the time of Customer’s first fitting. Any measurements set forth on the invoice shall be conclusive evidence of the Customer’s measurements at the time of first fitting. Any changes in a Customer’s measurements or change in shoes/heel height resulting in a change of services that were agreed upon at the first fitting may result in additional or different Services to be performed and will be subject to additional charges.

4. Customization- Any customization in the design of a garment is based on information provided by Customer. Customizations made outside the original seams are at the Customer’s own risk. Customer acknowledges that altering a dress is a deliberate modification to the dress and not all alterations can be undone. Some garments may be unalterable or unalterable in certain areas. Some requested customizations may not be technically feasible or may be considered high risk and Threads cannot be held liable for changes to the dress if the Customer chooses to proceed with them. Customer will be charged for additional fabric, beads, straps, sleeves, etc. purchased on their behalf and understand risk and responsibility for such is assumed by Customer.

5. Design Changes- Any Customer requested changes in the design after the initial fitting and which result in different or additional services to be performed shall be subject to additional charges.

6. Any additional appointments requested by the Customer outside the standard 2 fittings may incur a $25 appointment fee. This includes appointments for refittings, change of mind, appointments to try accessories, etc.

7. Steaming, Pressing and Spot Cleaning: A final pressing and steaming of the garment may be included in the alterations price. Spot cleaning is included to remove alteration markings that occurred during the altering of a garment. We exercise the utmost care in handling garments entrusted to us and use processes best suited to the nature and condition of the garment, nevertheless, we cannot assume responsibility for inherent weaknesses or defects in materials that are not readily apparent before processing. Threads is not responsible for cleaning of any markings, soil, or odors present on the garment prior to the garment being brought to Threads or incurred after the point of pick-up. There is no long-term warranty for gown preservation. Cleaning risks are assumed by the Customer alone.
    

Completion, Pick Up, and Storage:

1. Completion of Services: Upon completion of the Services agreed upon between the Customer and Threads, payment in full shall be due. Receipt of such garments will constitute acceptance and satisfaction with the Services provided by Threads as well as acknowledgement that the garment is deemed to be in satisfactory condition. Such an acceptance will occur with the removal of the garment from Threads’s premises by Customer or Customer’s representative, the issuance of an invoice, and payment in full.

2. Pick up and Storage: Threads will notify the Customer when the garment is complete and a pick-up time will be determined. All accounts must be paid in full before Customer’s garment/s may be removed from the premises. If a Customer’s garment is not picked up by the wedding date supplied by the Customer to Threads, a fee may be assessed and billed to the Customer commencing on the proposed wedding date in addition to any other rights and remedies Threads may have at law or hereunder. Completed garments not picked up within 6 months of wedding date may be donated to charity. If Customer is unable to pick up the Customer’s garments, it is the Customer’s responsibility to notify Threads and provide the name of the person who is authorized to do so. Once garments are removed from the premises, the Customer bears all risk of loss and damage as to such garments.

 

Satisfaction and Event Cancellation:

1. Satisfaction/Dissatisfaction: Threads will make every effort within reason to satisfy Customers. Threads will work collaboratively with the Customer to determine the number of fittings needed in order to complete the work on the garment. If at any time before the final fitting and release of the garment, Threads and the Customer determine the work is not being performed in a satisfactory manner and/or Threads is unable to complete the work on the garment, Threads will return the garment to the Customer. The Customer will be responsible for paying for services completed on the garment and accept their garment in the unfinished state.

2. Cancelled Event: If the Customer's event in which they are to wear the garment altered by Threads is cancelled, it is the Customer's responsibility to notify Threads in a timely manner. The garment must be picked up by the original date provided by the Customer to Threads and paid in full. If a Customer’s garment is not picked up by the wedding date supplied by the Customer to Threads, a fee may be assessed and billed to the Customer commencing on the proposed wedding date in addition to any other rights and remedies Threads may have at law or hereunder.
