Your order

Our in-stock bridesmaids and bridal dresses will arrive either by standard delivery (2-5 working days), or next day delivery to any UK Mainland address (order by 11am, excludes weekends and bank holidays). Click here to read more on our online shipping and delivery policy.

Evri are currently experiencing delays so some parcels shipped in December may be late, please click here for more details.

Sometimes these little tinkers go AWOL so firstly check your junk and if its not there then contact us on Hello@WeAreRewritten.com and we can get this re-sent to you.

Returns and exchanges

Click here to read our full returns policy, it makes for fascinating reading.

Please select exchange in the returns portal and choose your new item. This will be shipped out when we receive the original item back to us.

 

We pride ourselves on our quality and check every dress before shipping it out to you but we are human and sometimes things do get occasionally missed. However, if you do receive a faulty item, please let us know immediately via hello@wearerewritten.com and we will get a new dress sent out as soon as possible.

Unfortunately not ladies. When purchasing a Rewritten dress via one of our beloved stockists, they are non refundable unless faulty but exchanges may be possible.  Please get in touch directly with the store you bought your dress from to discuss any returns/exchange queries you may have.

Returns coming from outside of the UK are shipped using DHL and are charged at £10 per shipment. There are no duties to pay so no need to worry about hidden charges!

Depending on location returns from outside the UK might take up to two weeks to arrive with us.

Planning

We place new orders every 4-6 weeks with our workshops. Email us if you are after a particular style/size and we can update you on when it's coming back in. Our styles available on pre-order will have shipping dates next to the 'buy it now' button.

Sure! We are happy to send you swatches of any colour or fabric you’re interested in. Just select which ones you would like here and check out with your address details and we will pop them in the post for you via 2nd class royal mail (we send out swatches weekly), free of charge. Because we are nice like that.

As we hold stock of the majority of our styles you should be able to receive your order straight away. If we are out of stock on your size or you have ordered a pre order piece then it can take up to three months to receive your dresses. Our made-to-order dresses take 10-16 weeks to be made.

Sizing, fit and style

We've all been there and understand the panic that sets in when you find out one of your best girls is pregnant. Luckily we get this a lot, so much so we have even written a blog post about it - check it out here. If you have already bought from us and need an exchange then drop us an email and we will see what we can do.

We do not offer an in-house alterations service but are more than happy to recommend a list of trusted seamstresses in the Greater London area. Drop us an email on Hello@WeAreRewritten.com for a full list.

We are constantly looking at new colours and styles to add to our collections so any suggestions are welcome and if enough people ask for it we will listen!

Unfortunately we cannot do one off bespoke colour orders.

We dye all of our fabric to our colour specifications and there is a small chance that the colour will vary slightly from different dye lots. Rest assured, we always try to colour match as closely as we can, but sometimes that is not always possible.

The majority of our dresses are made from a polyester fibre crepe de chine which feels just flipping amazing to wear and has a beautiful weight and movement. We have just introduced a silky satin to our collection as well which is just darn beautiful.

All of our collection is hand designed by co-founder Fran and sampled here in London. Our collection is crafted in both our London and Asian workshops.

There is a cheeky little hole in the side of your dress, which you can thread one of the waist ties through and wrap around to tie with the opposite waist tie in a bow. Click here for our series of how to style videos including our Florence dress.

Your sash can be tied in a couple of ways – either double around the body by placing the centre seam of the sash at the centre front of your dress or jumpsuit and wrapping around the body once, finishing with a knot at the side front; or single wrapped round and finished in a bow at the side front or centre back.

Appointments and trying on

You can find a list of stockists as well as information on how to book in to see us at our London and Manchester showrooms here. Both locations are by appointment only and are all sorts of brilliant fun.

We charge £15 for 1 hour appointments and £20 for 1.5 hour appointments which is non-refundable against any purchases. You have exclusive use of the showroom and drinks are provided. You can even let us know in advance what kind of music you would like to listen to, how nice is that?

We recommend your bridesmaids come prepared with appropriate underwear, a strapless bra, some heeled shoes and their best smiles.

For up to 4 bridesmaids we offer hour long appointments, for 5 plus it is an hour and a half. We don't have an indoor waiting area and our appointments are back-to-back so please try to arrive at the correct time, if you arrive early there is nowhere to wait inside!

We have samples of every style in every size that style comes in, ranging from an 8-26. We also have samples of each of our colours but we don't have every style available in every colour and size to try, if we did we would have over 600 dresses on our rail!

We advise booking your Saturday appointment 2-3 months in advance and late night appointments 1 month in advance to avoid disappointment.

If the day you would like to book for is greyed out and you can't click on it then I am afraid it means we are fully booked and have no availability.

Care

We wrap all of our dresses with care but try as we might to stop it, they can move around in transit. Our dresses can be steamed using a hand steamer, a good selection of which are available to buy online from £20. For our full care guide click here.

You can machine wash our entire bridesmaids collection on a low 30 degree wash. Store your dress hanging to avoid creases, steam instead of iron where possible and keep away from sharp objects to avoid snagging the fabric. Also, have you ever thought about hemming your dress to a midi to make it more wearable?
