I like what you've done with a design, but for my personal taste I have a couple of things I would alter...

Customising designs and orders is what I'm all about! Feel free to email me with your thoughts at the above email.

If I make a custom order, will it cost me any more than the original garment?

How many changes are made to the design, and/or how much more complicated the design becomes, will affect whether the cost is different. These are all things that can be discussed via email when you enquire over design changes. Making to a custom fit, rather than design changes, costs no extra.

I often find it difficult to find clothes that fit properly, can you make my order to custom measurements?

Sure can! Just remember to include your Bust/Chest, Waist and Hip measurements when you order or enquire.

I'm an international customer, can you still make a custom piece to fit me?

But of course! Just remember to include your measurements, and we'll be away laughing!

So I've ordered a custom piece, how long do I wait for it to be finished?

For the slower periods, I would allow up to a week for the construction side of things (excluding payment clearance and shipping), just incase there is some outsourced work to be completed on the garment. For busier times, I would allow 2-3 weeks for the construction to be completed. Custom pieces need to have the time invested to make sure the finished garment is perfect for you, and is something that you will love for years to come.

Is there a shop where I can go and buy devel men and women?

Unfortunatly there are no phsyical locations with devel men and women stocked in them. All the products can be viewed on my product pages, and orders need to be made via the Rita Sue webstore. Devel men and women is, however, available at various hot rod, tattoo and cultural events throughout the year in NZ, so keep an eye on my events page, or subscribe to my newsletter to find out if you'll be at the same events. And come say hi, it would be great to meet you!

I will be looking at stocking retailers in the future, so if you are a retailer and are interested in my designs for your store, feel free to contact me at the above email address.

I'm in a band/club/group, and am interested in dressing more than just myself in your designs, can you cater to us? And I already have an idea of what we want...

Custom orders excite me to no end, and I embrace them as such. Working close with band, clubs and other groups is something that I would like to increase the frequency of. Feel free to contact me at the above email and we can discuss what you're after. To view some of the work I've already done, check out the King Cannons photos in my gallery, and check out the story in my blog.

I care about human rights, do you produce your garments in a factory that exploits their workers?

Absolutely not! As it stands, I construct every garment myself, except for the women's T'Alternatives (t-shirts), which were produced in a knitwear factory here in Auckland, NZ. Any outsourced work is completed here in Auckland, and I have personally visited every factory/location and seen for myself that the workers are treated fairly. I also care about these world issues, and would never buy into exploiting people to make more money.
