Returns and Exchanges

At Nisi Kids, none of the dresses is a ready-made item taken off a shelf; each one is sewn individually to the measurements you give us. This makes returns and exchanges different from off-the-peg clothing. Below, we explain when you can ask for a return, an exchange or a repair, how to submit your request, how to send the item back and the time limits involved.

What made-to-measure means

In made-to-measure sewing, the fabric is cut to the measurements you give us.

Your dress is cut after the order is placed and sewn only to the measurements you have given. Because the fabric is cut to those measurements, the finished piece is not a standard item that would fit another child.

That is why, with made-to-measure items, the process works differently from sending back a dress that was sitting on a shelf. The most critical stage is the measurements, before sewing begins.

Why there is no right of withdrawal

The items you order online are sewn to the size you select and the measurements you enter when you order. They therefore fall within the goods prepared in line with the consumer's wishes or personal needs, as listed in Article 15 of the Distance Contracts Regulation, and the 14-day right of withdrawal does not apply to these orders. This is presented for your approval on the payment page before you order.

When a return or exchange is possible

If the dress has a sewing or workmanship fault, was damaged in transit, if the wrong item or size was sent to you, or if the dress was not sewn to the measurements you gave, you can ask for one of the following options under Article 11 of Consumer Protection Law No. 6502:

  • Free repair of the dress
  • Replacement with a new, fault-free dress
  • A reduction in the sale price
  • Termination of the contract and a refund of the price you paid

In these cases, we cover the shipping costs. Where a refund is approved, it is made via iyzico to the card you paid with; how long the amount takes to appear in your account may vary depending on your bank.

A poor fit caused by measurements given incorrectly is a different matter from a fault in the sewing. Even so, do write to us; let us talk openly about whether an alteration can save the dress.

How to submit a return request

When the dress reaches you, open the parcel carefully and check it without delay. Trying it early rather than waiting for the big day buys time if something needs to be put right.

  1. Fill in the formFill in the Return Request form: order number, item, reason for the request and your preferred solution
  2. Send the photosThe form gives you a request number; send us photos of the item and the fault, taken in daylight, on WhatsApp, quoting this number
  3. ReviewWe review your request and get in touch with you; if the item needs to be sent to the atelier, we let you know the address and how to send it

Please ask us before having the dress altered elsewhere; once a piece has been worked on, what we can do may be limited.

Why measurements matter so much

The measurements you enter when you order are the starting point for the sewing. From the moment they are settled, the fabric is cut to those measurements, and a step has been taken that is hard to undo.

So take your time when entering the measurements. If you are unsure about anything, take a photo of how you are holding the tape measure and send it to us on WhatsApp before you order, and we will check it together. If you later notice that you entered a measurement incorrectly, write to us straight away; if sewing has not yet started, it can usually be corrected.

This page explains how our returns and exchanges work in plain language. The binding terms are set out in the Distance Sales Agreement and the Preliminary Information Form; your rights under the consumer legislation in force remain unaffected.

FAQ

Common questions

If I do not like the dress, can I return it?

As the dresses are made to measure, to the measurements you give us, returns because you do not like the dress or have changed your mind (the 14-day right of withdrawal) do not apply. So we recommend asking us any questions about the design, size and measurements on WhatsApp before you order. For defective, damaged or wrongly sent items, your legal rights remain unaffected.

What happens if the dress is too tight or too loose?

Write to us and send photos. If the dress was not sewn to the measurements you gave, that is a defect; you can use the Return Request form to ask for a free repair, a replacement, a price reduction or a refund. If the measurements were given incorrectly, we talk openly about what is possible and explain your options.

Can I exchange it for a different size?

Because every dress is cut to one set of measurements, we do not work by swapping it for another size off the shelf. If the wrong size was sent to you, you are entitled to an exchange; fill in the Return Request form. In other cases, write to us and we will look together at whether an alteration can be made to the dress.

How do I submit a return request?

Fill in the Return Request form; you will be given a request number. Send us photos of the item and the fault on WhatsApp (+90 533 490 65 20), quoting this number, and we will review your request and get in touch with you.

I realised afterwards that I gave the wrong measurements, what should I do?

Write to us on WhatsApp straight away and quote your order number. If sewing has not yet started, it can usually be corrected. So if anything is on your mind after you order, do not wait.

If anything is unclear, write to us

Before you order, or after you receive the dress, ask us anything that is on your mind on WhatsApp. If a defective, damaged or wrong item has arrived, fill in the Return Request form.
