CLEAR PRICING, CLEAR EXPECTATIONS

What the Set Price Means

The price shown on each design page is the base price for that specific design and the inclusions described in its listing. Each listing should clearly state whether the price includes the garment only, a coordinating belt or collar, a headpiece, accessories, fittings, or other components.

Shipping is calculated separately. Specialty materials, client-requested changes, rush production, complex sizing adjustments, and international delivery may require an additional quote.
MATERIAL AVAILABILITY

The approved material plan protects the design direction.

Traditional and natural materials vary in availability. The listed price applies to the approved material plan for the design. If a requested material is unavailable or significantly changes in cost, Urban Islander Designs will contact the client with an appropriate alternative or revised quote before production begins.

Shipping is calculated separately.
