ORDERS

How long does it take to process my order?

As all of our pieces are hand-crafted, hand made and hand embellished; production of your order can take up to 40 working days depending on the garment style. Some styles may be ready sooner depending on fabric, material and trim availability.

Please note this does not include weekend or bank holidays (our hard-working Artisans need days off us much as we all do). Once production of your order is complete and ready for dispatch, you will receive a confirmation email along with your tracking details.

Our dedication to a slower pace of production is a principle at the heart of Khanum’s, to ensure both our signature finish, but also to deliver on our promise to create purposeful garments which are to be treasured for a lifetime. Some things in life are worth waiting for, and our customers agree that a piece of Khanum’s creation is certainly one of them!

Can you produce my order in time for a requested date?

We want all our customers to be able to feel empowered by a Khanum’s garment on their special occasion, which is why we will do our upmost to ensure you receive your order by your requested date. You are always welcome to contact us before placing your order to discuss availability and production time frames in order for us to do our best to meet your requested date.

My size isn’t available on your site, do you offer custom orders?

Khanum’s is built upon the essence of bespoke craftmanship, so if your size isn't available on our site, we are more than happy to create a custom order for you. Orders can be customised on elements such as length, size or colour for an additional fee (up to 30%). Please note all orders can take us 35-45 working days, but we promise you that the wait is worth it. All custom orders are non-refundable or exchangeable.

Can I amend or cancel my order?

Cancellation requests are required within 6 hours of placing an order. Please note, we only purchase materials and start production once your order has been placed. We require notification as soon as possible ahead of production so we are not wasting materials. We are happy to take amendments such as adding to your order at any time. For both queries, please contact orders@khanums.co with your order number and request.

What packaging do you use?

Khanum’s pieces are perfectly gift-wrapped the moment they leave our workshop. Packaged in our signature dust bags or suit carriers (garment depending), we wrap every purchase in bespoke tissue paper within our gorgeous white boxes and will include a thank you card if you have provided a message. As well as looking good, we ensure our packaging equally does good by exclusively using recycled materials that are FCA approved.
