General questions

 

The Item I want is out of stock, when will it be restocked?


We do a restock 4 times a year. Although dates differ, the stock is normally available for purchase in March, June, September and November. If you are curious about a specific item please reach our to our customer love team via email (customercare@catherinedeane.com) and they will be able to help you out.

 

 

The item I would like to buy isn't available in my size, can I order a different size and have it altered to my size?


We do a restock of products ever 3 months, but you're more than welcome to purchase a different size. Sadly if you purchase an item that is smaller than your size, this cannot be made bigger. If you were to purchase a size bigger than your current size, the rule of thumb is to only go 2 sizes larger as the alterations could get costly, with the pattern not turning out as intended.

 

Where to buy from?


You can either order online directly from us, Book a Virtual Appointment with our stylist or find a stockist near you.
