By trading on this site/paying an invoice, you agree to the following conditions automatically. Therefore, we recommend that you read through the terms and conditions before you buy from www.indiebridelondon.co.uk.
Booking an appointment
Our showroom is open by appointment only. The appointments last for 1 hour. It is advisable to book your appointment as early as possible to secure a time convenient for you.
You can book your appointment on our website where you can see all the available time slots and choose the best one for you. You can leave a message on the booking form if you are looking for a particular item or want to leave us a message about your appointment. We sometimes lend sample dresses to photo shoots so if you are interested in a particular style, please notify us.
We charge £15 for all the trial appointments. The first appointment fee is redeemable against any purchase over £100. The second appointment and onwards are non-refundable.
We have a 24 hour cancellation policy. Any appointments that are not cancelled within 24 hours before the appointment, are non-refundable. You must cancel your appointment by calling us on +44207 7353270.
How to order
The easiest way to order is through our website. Simply browse the collection, make your choices and pay online through our secure server. You are also more than welcome to come and see us in our London studio.
We accept payment online by Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro and PayPal.
If you wish, you can pay in two instalments. When we receive the first payment, we will order materials for the item. The second and final instalment is due in one month after the first one. We will put the order in production calendar once we have received the full payment. We require full payment before we start any work on the item.
Sizing
All dresses, tops and skirts ordered online are made-to-order in UK sizes 8-16 or S-XL. They are not custom-made according to your measurements. This means they might require some alterations to fit perfectly. Alterations are not included on the price in our standard size items, they are billed separately.
For sizing information, we suggest you check our size chart, located also as a tab on each item in our shop area and in the footer menu. Please note, the measurements are not garment measurements but body measurements.
If you are between sizes, we suggest you order the larger size when the sizing is 8-16 and the smaller size when the sizing is S-XL. Indiebride London is not responsible for inaccurate size ordering, or an incorrect size due to a customers change in size during dress production.
Alternatively, if you have a change to come for fitting in our showroom in London we can make the dress according to your measurements. This will be an additional £450. The item will then be made according to the measurements taken in our showroom. If the dress doesn’t fit nicely because the customer’s measurements have changed Indiebride London is not responsible for altering the dress free of charge but an additional alteration fee is charged.
If you have visited our showroom in London and have tried on our samples, please be aware that the showroom samples have been tried on multiple times, dry cleaned and they have been displayed on a hanger so some stretching of the fabric might have taken place, which will sometimes slightly change the fit of the sample dress and the size of them might not be accurate anymore. The fabrics of the sample dresses will also appear softer as this is due to dry cleaning and natural softening of the fabrics.

Bespoke dresses
You can combine two or more of our existing styles or design your own dress with our help. All bespoke dresses require a consultation in our London studio. Bespoke dresses must be paid in full before we start any work on them. Please read the invoice as this will form a contract between ourselves and the customer and will explain what the price includes.
The dress design is decided beforehand and can’t be changed after the dress production has started. All fit alterations to the dress must be communicated during the fitting. If we have already made the changes to customer’s dress according to what was agreed on the fitting and the customer wants to change something again, this will be billed separately. Bespoke dress prices start from £2000 and they are automatically made according to your measurements. All bespoke dresses are non-refundable.
