I have this great idea for a gown and wondered if you would make it?
I do occasionally take commissions. However, that's expensive for you if I accept it. I never charge less than 10k lindens, and depending on what it is and who you are, I may not give you a full perm item either.
I do not do modern items that may be taken from modern designers such as Dior, Laggerfield, Chanel, etc. There are all kinds of legal issues with such actions.

FAQ # 7 - Delivery Issues
I bought a gown, and it delivered, but parts are missing!
Most often it is your viewer, plain and simple. At the current time I use LL's 1.23 Viewer when I design and package gowns. I have a strict checklist of what goes into a package, and I promise it went out of my vendor server with all parts intact. I've been doing this whole vendor delivery thing for 2 years, and it's rarely an issue on my end.
Now, if you're using any third party viewer, you'll need to contact that maker about the issues. I can issue you another gown, and I have done so in the past with proof of purchase. Just drop me a notecard with when you bought the garment and what happened, and I'll deal with it accordingly.
However, if you're using the same viewer, you'll probably end up having the same results. I do not know why some viewers eat parts of gowns!
I do not replace parts of gowns if you bought the garment from someone who resold it via yard sale or what have you. I have a list of those who have bought my gowns. If it was gifted to you, then give me the name of the original buyer to check, as well as the date.

FAQ # 6 - Changing perms for an individual
Can you change the perms on your gowns just for me? I have an unusual avatar size and I NEEED it to be copy/mod!
No, I really won't. I do understand that everyone sees themselves in SL differently, including sizes. I applaud those who like to be different, but the perms were set as they are for a reason. The resizing scripts really do work, whether you like them or not. Some ladies don't like them, but that doesn't stop the scripts from working.
I've come across this comment many times, and in the end it comes down to this: If you cannot live with the perms that I allow on my clothing, please don't upset yourself about it. I recommend you find another clothing maker who has perms that better suit your needs.

FAQ # 5 - Renting shops
Do you have affiliate vendors? Would you like too rent space in our great mall? Are you interested in renting a shop?
Thank you so much for asking, however at this time I am not looking for new store locations nor do I authorize resellers of my goods.
Individual resale of previously purchased GWD - Curious Seamstress items are not under my control.

FAQ # 4 - Where did you get . . .
Where did you get that . .. .
Everything in the ad shots that you see is usually listed in the thank you note card that comes with the gown. Frankly, I cannot remember every bit of hair, skin or jewelry I've used over the last three years. That's why I put it in the note cards! READ them, they're helpful and sometimes even informative and interesting!
Sometimes items are not available any longer. I've started coming across that more and more often, and so I no longer include landmarks. However, I do tell you who made something and were I got it at the time.
IMing and asking me won't help you either. I'll just refer you back to the note card that comes with the gown in the ad you like. Yes, you will have to buy the gown to find out!

FAQ # 3 - About permissions
In Second Life there are things called permissions or perms. All Curious Seamstress garments are No copy, No modify, Transfer. This was done because I don't wish anyone buying a garment of mine, then changing the textures or design around and claiming I did it. It has happened to me before, which is why the perms are now set as they are on all Curious Seamstress clothing.
How can I make a skirt fit then?
I have resizing scripts in all skirts. It's a simple matter of clicking on the skirt and using the blue menu that will pop up. You can either resize individual prims or the whole skirt at once. I've played with it, it works, I swear!

FAQ # 2 - Garment colors
Can I get this gown in another color?
No, this is a sticking point for me. I do not recolor gowns based on real world clothing. These are the original work of some long dead, often unrecognized seamstress. I want you as the customer to see what this person made with great skill. If the color of a garment doesn't suit you, then please don't buy it.
But Kembri, this is a virtual world, anything goes!
To that I say (with a smile), then change your avatar to better suit the garment!

FAQ # 1 - Undergarments
Do you sell undergarments separately?
No, I do not. When I first started making gowns I decided to make a complete package. That meant undergarments as well as the outer garments that everyone gets to see. I don't sell the undergarments separately at this time. I won't say I'll never do it, but I have no plans to do so. I consider the undergarments as an additional treat for my customers.
