Custom Process and Pricing
At Allons•y, our goal is to be transparent about the cost of labor, materials, and design so that you know what you're paying for every step of the way. Because Allons•y specializes in custom work, we cannot provide an exact quote until after a free consultation.
One of a Kind Creations
Price will vary depending on complexity of design, materials, and timeline of the order. 50% deposit is due upon receipt of invoice, and remaining 50% balance is due at completion of garment.
What it is: A one-of-a-kind look designed just for you.
How it works: We will start together from scratch to envision and create your look. Here are the steps you can expect from the Allons•y process (please note: this may vary from individual to individual, depending on the project).
1. Written Communication: After contacting Allons•y, expect to communicate via email to discuss idea, inspiration, timeline, etc. to determine if the project is a good fit.
2. Video Consultation, Quote, and Deposit: Allons•y meets with you via video to discuss the concept, fabric, embellishments, garment components, and to provide an estimated price range. Allons•y will then provide a concept sketch and itemized quote. An initial 50% deposit is due at this time.
3. Design and Construction Process: Allons•y will provide a detailed rendering of the final garment concept, accompanied by fabric swatches. A current measurement sheet will be taken, and the initial muslin development will be begin. Expect multiple fittings depending on the complexity of the garment.
4. Garment Completion: Once the final garment is completed and has had a final fitting, the 50% balance will be due. Enjoy wearing your new Allons•y look!
Customize an Allons•y Look
Price will vary depending on complexity of original design and level of customization. 50% deposit is due upon receipt of invoice, and remaining 50% balance is due at completion of garment.
What it is: If you love a preexisting Allons•y design and want to make it your own, this is for you! Work with Allons•y to Customize color, textile, detailing, and even proportions of a full Allons•y look or separates.
How It works: Contact Allons•y referencing the specific garment that has caught your eye, as well as the potential customizations that you'd like. After a brief video or email consultation, Allons•y will provide you with a quote, at which point a 50% deposit will be due. The remaining 50% balance will be due at the completion of the garment.
Considerations: A fitting may be required for a customized Allons•y look, depending on the complexity of the original garment, which will affect the final price. Designer retains the right to refuse certain customizations and recommend a fully custom look if requests deviate too much from the original design.
Reimaginings
Price will vary depending on complexity of original design, materials, and complexity of redesign.
50% deposit is due upon receipt of invoice, and remaining 50% balance is due at completion of garment.
What it is: Allons•y loves sustainability, and redesigning a preexisting garment is a wonderful way to embrace eco-friendly fashion. Whether originally an Allons•y or another brand, we can customize and reimagine a garment to make it unique and new again! Reimaginings can be as simple as changing the way a garment fits your body, or as complex as transforming a wedding gown into a mini dress and beyond.
How It Works: Contact Allons•y with images of your garment, and a brief description of what you have in mind. If your request seems like a good fit for Allons•y, we will schedule a video consultation to discuss ideas further. You will then receive a quote, at which time a 50% deposit is due. depending on the complexity of the redesign, Allons•y will provide a concept sketch as part of the ongoing design process. Fittings will likely be required, and will impact the cost of the redesign. Once the garment is complete, the remaining 50% balance will be due.
Considerations: Customer will be responsible for transporting the original garment to Allons•y, unless you reside in the same local area. Depending on the complexity of the redesign, we may need to inspect your garment in-person prior to providing a quote, as the internal construction of a garment will affect the labor required.
