Journal – DrapeLayers

1. Made-to-Order Production

Each garment is cut, sewn, and finished specifically for your order. Production begins shortly after your purchase is confirmed.

This made-to-order model helps us avoid overproduction and maintain the integrity of our craft.
Before shipping, every piece undergoes a detailed quality control process, including:

Verification of fabric, construction, and finishing
Measurement checks against order specifications
Photographic documentation prior to packaging

Once production has started, orders cannot be cancelled or modified.

2. Returns & Right of Withdrawal

Due to the made-to-order nature of our garments, returns and exchanges are not guaranteed.

However, return requests may be submitted within 14 days of delivery, provided that:

The item is unworn, unwashed, and unaltered
The item is returned in its original condition
The request is approved by Drape Layers

All return requests are reviewed individually and approved on a case-by-case basis.
Approval is not automatic.

If a return is approved:

Return shipping costs will be deducted from the refund
Any original shipping fees are non-refundable

We strongly recommend contacting us for sizing or fit guidance before placing your order.

3. Order Accuracy

Please review your order carefully before confirming.
Once production begins, changes to size, fabric, or specifications cannot be guaranteed.

If you believe you have made an error shortly after placing your order, contact us immediately at contact@drapelayers.com. We will do our best to assist before production starts, but changes are not assured.

4. Defective or Incorrect Items

In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or incorrect, please contact us within 5 days of delivery at contact@drapelayers.com, including:

Your order number
A brief description of the issue
Clear photos of the item and packaging

Each case is reviewed individually. Where appropriate, we will arrange a repair, replacement, or refund.

5. Refunds

Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method or, where applicable, store credit, only after the item has been received and inspected.

Please note:

Processing times depend on your bank or payment provider
We do not offer discounts as an alternative to returns

6. Non-Returnable Items

The following items cannot be returned or refunded:

Made-to-order garments or accessories (unless approved as outlined above)

Each piece undergoes a detailed quality control process prior to dispatch, including verification of measurements, construction, and finishing

Once production has started, orders cannot be cancelled or modified.

6. Delivery Responsibility & Risk

Once an order has been handed over to the courier, ownership and risk transfer to the customer.

If a parcel is marked as delivered but not received, the customer must contact the courier directly using the tracking information provided.

While we are happy to assist with communication where possible, Drape Layers is not responsible for delays, loss, theft, or damage occurring after transfer to the delivery carrier.

We recommend reviewing local customs regulations prior to placing an order.
