Once the package is shipped, Daplittlevogue is not responsible for giving refunds or replacing packages due to late shipment drop off. Please note: We do our absolute best to ensure that packages are shipped within a timely manner. It is extremely important that you do NOT reserve a start date (first day of rental – as your actual shoot date.) It is always best that your actual shoot date be set for the 2nd or 3rd day after your start date selected.

We can NOT guarantee any ship time/date as Shipping is out of our control once the package has been sent out for shipping. We unfortunately can NOT control lost packages, delayed packages, late arrival times.

2. Stuck zippers or damaged zippers: This would be caused by not fitting the garment properly. A stuck or ripped zipper is when the zipper itself is bent or damaged beyond repair- Or zipper comes fully off the track- OR can be caused by aggressive pulling/improperly pulling.

3. Any item(s) that come back with major rips to the tulle or fabric. It is important that you do not use our gowns around sharp objects (trees, sticks, limbs, cars, anything that could rip or heavily damage the fabric).

4. Excessive stains (Grass, mud, water, oil, makeup.)

5. Any item(s) returned with excessive grass inside the dress, sticks from lack of removal, twigs, leaves, metal objects (It is vital that you remove ANY AND ALL objects collected underneath a gown before return shipping) In the case of grass it is best to use a lent roller.

6. Any damage caused by animals (dander, animal hair, rips caused by animals to the fabric) – we suggest that animals are NOT used with our gowns as our gowns are made with expensive fabrics that can be torn. Also we do not suggest animal usage as the next rentee may be allergic to that specific type of animal. Animals leave behind dander even after being cleaned.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

Because we use fabrics that are delicate in nature and are very pricey- we ask that you please follow the guidelines below. We truly want you to enjoy our garments / item/s but please do so with love and care.

REFRAIN from any drinks/food/body makeup, body makeup/spray tanning when using our item(s). PLEASE refrain from spray tanning day before or DAY OF event. Spray tanning solutions stain the satin of the bodice and can NOT be removed/cleaned. Body makeup is also prohibited when renting our item/s. Body make up also is very hard to clean/remove from the bodice. PLEASE DO NOT WEAR ITEM/S WHILE HAVING HAIR AND MAKEUP DONE. BEST SUGGESTION IS TO WEAR A BUTTON UP, A HOODIE, OR A MAKEUP CAPE during these times to help you from messing up hair/makeup.

REFRAIN from USE of our garments in or near water or mud or sharp objects (trees, rocks, concrete seats, snow etc)! PLEASE pick the garments up when walking on the sidewalk, walking around grease. Should you want to shoot our item/s on or near water/beaches, snow etc it is best to prop the child on a box, or use towels underneath or a clear shower curtain in order to keep the garment from laying directly on the wet or muddy surface.

REFRAIN from excessive play (running, jumping) in order to prevent unpreventable rips and tears. Please watch small children – as some of our item/s have small delicate pieces that could be a choking hazard.

REFRAIN from IRONING OR STEAM machine use on our item(s). Should you need to remove wrinkles we recommend a professional steaming system OR hanging item(s) in a bathroom with hot shower running. By hanging the item(s) in a hot room-this will help allow the wrinkles to fall. We also suggest fluffing the item out, and letting hang 1 day prior to use.

REFRAIN from using our gowns with animals unless we give you permission.

REFRAIN from DRY CLEANING OR CLEANING.

1. Please pick up the skirting if renting a dress. This helps to keep the underneath of the skirting from picking up any dirt/grease/grass stains etc. It is important to lift the skirt of the dress from the sides-or pick up from the floor and lift up to carry.

2. Please be sure our gowns have all grass, sticks, etc removed from the dresses before return shipping. Tulle tends to accumulate these items when outside. So please use a lent roller to remove ALL grass from underneath the gowns. Please be sure you inspect underneath for sticks and other outside debris that can be caught underneath the garment.

3. Please be cautious of where and how you sit. We ask that you lift the garment off of the floor and try to tuck under your buttocks in most cases in order to keep the skirting safe from tearing on nails/hooks etc.

4. You must utilize a towel/sheet/shower curtain to cover any chairs, benches before sitting in the gown 

We want you to enjoy our rentals. But, it is very important that you understand our agreement. We want our gowns to be enjoyed by everyone and in order to do so these rules and terms are in place so that each rentee can have a pleasant experience.

Return of item(s) and Extensions:

You agree to return the item(s) to Daplittlevogue  on or before the return date for the item(s) which is identified on the invoice for your order. In some cases an extension is possible. For an extension please email takidaayuk@daplittlevogue.com provided that any extension provided is subject to other orders for that item(s) and is available only upon pre-payment of the additional Rental Fee applicable to that product for the period of time of the extension.

Late Fees.

If you return the item(s) late or fail to return item(s) at all, a late fee of seventy dollars ($70.00) will be charged to the payment card you used to pay the Rental Fee or to any other payment system included in your account information; this includes PAYPAL. For every day that you are late returning the item(s) you will be sent a bill and you agree to pay such late fees, up to an amount not to exceed 200% of the retail value or market value, as determined at B+L’s discretion, plus applicable sales tax (plus the Rental Fee). The late fee is payable for each order of item(s) that is not returned when due, NOT towards each item(s) that is the subject of the order that is late.

Most importantly, if you have not returned the item(s) within fourteen (14) days after the return date for the item(s), this late return will be considered a non-return. daplittlevogue will then invoice/charge the maximum late fee set forth, less any late fees that you have already paid, plus applicable sales tax.

Payment of 200% Retail Value or Market Value.

Should you be charged an amount equal to 200% of the retail value or market value and you still possess the item(s), the item(s) are then considered yours to keep, though without any future refund, or return of any kind.

You as purchaser agree that daplittlevogue will charge and you shall pay, for the price for additional cleaning fees, repairs or replacement of item(s), as determined to daplittlevogue  discretion, up to 200% of the retail value or market value for the product.  This includes damages incurred during shipment of item(s) being returned to Daplittlevogue.

DAMAGES

Use of  Dapllitlevogue  RENTAL ITEM(S)

In the OFF chance that there may be damages to any rental item(s) upon opening shipment- please report those immediately. We do our best to check all item(s) prior to shipping but there are on rare occurrences we may miss prior damages. Should damages be sustained through cutting open the shipment box- you bare responsibility for that. It is important to use caution if using scissors or box cutter. It is crucial that you do NOT run scissors or a box cutter directly over the middle/center of the box. Items tend to shift during shipping and therefore the dress or other items can be pushed up against the middle of the box.

Upon purchase you agree and are responsible for the care of Daplittlevogue item(s) and you agree to treat each item(s) rented with great care. Daplittlevogueproducts are meant to be used and worn in limited capacity. This includes: photo shoots, special events, etc. You as the purchaser bare responsibility for loss of item(s), destruction or damage to the item(s) due to “disappearance”, theft, fire, major stains or any other cause.

Daplittlevogue considers normal wear and tear to encompass: MINOR stains (this includes smudges, small water marks) small snags in the fabric (this includes a pull of the threading)

Wholesale and resale 

We do not wholesale any of our gowns. Anyone caught buying and selling for profit without proper authorization will be in violation of our terms and agreement through purchasing new or used items. You will be banned from future purchases through our company. 

At Daplittlevogue we believe all reselling of our gowns be at buyers costs with no additional fees added in. All items should be properly noted what damages are noticeable or otherwise and exact costs paid. Anyone who profits will be subject to further fees owed to designer.
