Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the deal with your sweatshirt dresses (*hereon referred to as a SRESS)?
Ah, the million-dollar question! Our Sresses are not just your average cozy wear; they’re stylish, eco-friendly, and made from upcycled materials! Think of them as the superheroes of your wardrobe—saving the planet one fashionable outfit at a time. (Cape not included, but you’ll feel like a hero!)
Why aren’t prices listed
Here at Re-KDC, we believe that each piece of clothing is like a snowflake—no two are alike! Our pricing is as individual as your grandma’s secret cookie recipe, tailored to fit the vision you have in mind for your fabulous new sress.
So, what does that mean for you? Well, it means that when you come to us with YOUR creative ideas, YOUR budget (and maybe a few wild dreams), we’ll work together to make that vision a reality. You will receive an email walking you through the entire process and then make YOUR decision from there! Think of us as your fashion fairy godparents, waving our magic wands to conjure up the perfect piece just for you! (Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo, anyone?)
Can I send you a “base” sweatshirt?
Even though we have some thrifted items on had, we do prefer this! After we get to a finalized master plan and final payment is received, you will receive a pre-paid shipping label to send us your goods! With a sweatshirt you provide, we know the sweatshirt is one you already love. We just need a few provided measurements so we can ensure you don’t lose the comfort of your fave hoodie (or crewneck!) Please note: we recommend a sweatshirt type material for your base, we have found that sweaters can be dramatic and thinner materials don’t hang as nicely with added fabric 😅.
How do I care for my eco-chic Sress?
Great question! Treat your sress like a delicate flower—gentle washing is key! We recommend cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid the tumble dryer (it’s a bit too wild for our sresses) and hang it up to dry. Your sress will thank you with a twirl! It may need a gentle iron after the wash, patchwork is made with different types of fabric, so the care can vary. You will be informed ahead of time.
Speaking of fabric, how in the world do I pick?
The world is your canvas and you have the paintbrush, my friend, but, it can definitely get overwhelming. We have an ever changing inventory of fabrics on hand and receive new ones monthly (local donations and bargains on Facebook Marketplace). Tell us what you’re looking for and we can pull some ideas for you, but the more clear your vision, the faster we can get to making it! Try visiting your local fabric store and you’ll find your choices are limitless. Even better, grab what you love, give it a wash and send it to us with your “base” sweatshirt. and we will return your remaining fabric with your custom Sress, but we always welcome donations!
Can I return or exchange my unique piece?
We totally get it—sometimes things just don’t fit right (like that time you tried to squeeze into your high school jeans). If you need to return or exchange, just check our return policy for the nitty-gritty details. We want you to rock your dress, not wrestle with it!
Are your dresses really one-of-a-kind?
You bet your bottom dollar they are! Each dress is crafted from upcycled materials, which means no two pieces are exactly alike. It’s like having a pet unicorn—totally unique and fabulous! (Just don’t try to ride it.)
How long will it take for my dress to arrive?
Patience is a virtue, my friend! Typically, your stylish new Sress will arrive within 2-4 weeks of final approval of piece. But if you’re in a hurry (like a kid on Christmas morning), feel free to check our shipping policy for more details. We promise it’ll be worth the wait!
Do you ship internationally?
Absolutely! We love spreading the eco-friendly love across the globe. Just remember, international shipping may take a bit longer and does carry an extra fee (think of it as a scenic route). So, pack your bags and get ready to strut your stuff worldwide!
