FAQs

HOW DOES THE MADE TO ORDER PROCESS WORK?

Made to Order items are fixed designs, which will be produced after an order is placed. Typically, a made to order style will be produced and ready to ship in 1-2 weeks. 

WHERE ARE YOUR GARMENTS MADE?

All items are completely designed and handmade in house.

 

IS YOUR BRAND ETHICAL & SUSTAINABLE?

I try to be as ethical and sustainable as possible. Every single stock item and made-to-order item is designed and handmade by me at my studio in Columbia, SC.  I only hold a small batch of stock items and made-to-order items are made once it has actually been ordered. I do this in order to reduce any unnecessary waste and also to be able to cater to any shape or size. All fabrics are sourced by me in the USA and Canada. If you order a garment from Anton & Maxine it is professionally tailored and designed, made with care and very limited in number.

WHAT PAYMENT METHODS DOES ANTON & MAXINE ACCEPT?

We accept payment by credit card via Squarespace.

WHAT COUNTRIES DOES ANTON & MAXINE CURRENTLY SHIP TO?

I currently only ship to the US. More countries are planned in the future.

WHAT IS YOUR SHIPPING TIME?

For stock products I will ship your order within 1 to 3 business days. For made to order products, I will ship your order within 1-2 weeks. Actual transit times may vary. 

WILL I PAY TAX, FEES, OR ANY DUTIES ON MY ORDER?

Yes, customers pay sales tax. This will be added to your order at check out.

Orders refused at the point of delivery will incur return shipping charges as well as a restocking fee equivalent to the duties and taxes levied upon the original shipment. We are required by law to list directly on the package the full retail value of items ordered. On rare occasions, customs agents may delay the delivery of, open, and/or examine the contents of packages at their discretion. For more information on customs fees and procedures, please contact your local customs office. 

WHAT IS YOUR RETURN POLICY?

For stock products, exchanges are accepted for a different size of the same style only. Return shipping fees are the responsibility of the customer.

For an item to be eligible for exchange:

    It must be unused, unworn, unwashed, and undamaged.

 It must have all original tags attached.

Due to the nature of our made to order styles, all sales are final. 

If you receive a defective or damaged item and you contact us immediately. In the unlikely event that you are unhappy with your purchase, feel free to get in touch with us so we can help you find a solution by emailing antonandmaxine@gmail.com
