FAQ

To adhere to San Francisco's Shelter-in-Place order due to Covid-19, we've made some updates to our process and policies. See how it applies to you here.

If you did not receive an Order Confirmation email and you are certain that you entered a valid email address during checkout, you may want to check your SPAM mailbox first. If you did not reach an Order Confirmation/Status page after checkout, there is a high likelihood that your order was not processed. Before you place a new order, contact us to confirm whether or not the first order went through. We recommend creating an account with us so that you can log in to keep track of your orders.

For any orders that haven’t been processed, you can make changes to your order by going to your confirmation email and scroll down to where it says 'EDIT OR CANCEL YOUR ORDER'. As long as the order hasn't been processed, you can make any necessary changes there.

Information you can and should change:

- Item(s) ordered
- Shipping address
- Contact information

Kindly note that this process will automatically cancel your original order and create a new one.

While our international prices do take into account your country's standard currency conversion, we also include shipping charges in the final price, so there's no extra shipping charge at checkout for international customers. We've negotiated the best possible expedited shipping prices so our international customers can have fast delivery and feel like you're shopping locally. Kindly note, while there are no extra shipping charges, customs duties and taxes are set by the country to which you're shipping, so there may be additional customs charges at checkout depending on your shipping location.

Final Sale means the item cannot be returned or exchanged. Please kindly note that Final Sale items are sold as is, and may have minor defects or discrepancies, and are non-returnable. All sale items are Final. Returned Final Sale items will not be accepted, and customers are responsible for shipping it back or the item may be discarded.

- Items purchased using a promotion code or other discount aren't eligible for a price adjustment unless you used only a free shipping discount.
- "Final Sale" items are not eligible for a price adjustment.
- Price adjustments for online purchases cannot be made in store.

To request a price adjustment, contact us within 14 days of your order. Make sure you include your order ID (found in your order confirmation email).

ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS

Most of our Kimono Robes come in "One Size", with easy-to-adjust removable wrap sash and tie closures. Our Curve Collection offers plus size fitting. For all of our robes, you can review detailed measurements on each product page for individual fit. Having your exact measurements is the best way to determine how well the kimonos will fit. If you have specific questions about the fit of an item, please contact us.

We recommend either steaming or ironing the fabric inside out on warm setting with a white towel over the kimono. Avoid holding the steamer or iron in one spot for too long to prevent scorching.

Laundering instructions are listed on each kimono robe's product page, as well as on the robes themselves, so please be sure to check the details for specific instructions. Here is the general guideline for some of our kimono robes:

• For our Silk Handpainted Collection, we recommend dry cleaning to ensure that the fabric and paint are preserved as perfectly as possible. Hand washing is not recommended as there is a possibility the silk will lose its color.
• Our Silk Printed Collection is best maintained through dry cleaning to protect the silk fabric. Hand washing might affect the coloring of the kimono robe, therefore is not recommended.
• Our Washable Silk Collection should be placed inside a delicates laundry bag to be machine washed in cold water on a gentle/delicate cycle and either hung or tumble dried on gentle/cold air cycle. However, the best laundering method to maintain the integrity of the silk fabric and color intensity is still through dry cleaning.
• Our Charmeuse Collection can either be hand-washed cold or placed kimono robe inside a delicates laundry bag and machine washed cold in gentle/delicate cycle, then hung dry or tumble dried on gentle/cold air cycle. Dry cleaning is always best for fabric preservation.
• Our In Lieu of Silk Collection is best maintained with TLC. Dry cleaning is our recommendation for this material to retain its breathable, lightweight durability.
