If a product is sold out, will you get more stock?

Once a garment is out of stock we will not be restocking. Our styles & prints are limited to ensure exclusivity, so we try and stick to small runs on each garment.

We may repeat styles if they are loved by you, however they will be in a different print. Thats why we recommend you keep ahead of the game and subscribe to our newsletter, as well as follow our instagram & facebook sites so that you get a heads up on new stock arrivals.
