Shipping Time Frames

Since every piece is custom made one by one, by hand, to each customers specific measurements, height and color requested, and due to the high demand of our product, orders typically take 3-5 weeks to make. Can not guarantee delivery sooner than 5 weeks for standard shipping (all depends on amount of rush orders). If you need a deadline secured you can elect to place a RUSH ORDER and receive your piece by a deadline (details below) Please allow 4-5 days shipping time due to COVID-19, usually (2-3 days)

    Wholesale

    I see your pictures on several boutiques do you do wholesale?

    We are the one and ONLY shop who sells these original designs. Unfortunately since China keeps making cheap, low quality replicas of our designs and is illegally using our copyrighted images. We can not sell wholesale at this time due to the large quantity of fraudulent vendors. The designer, Kimi Kouture, is the model and designer in all of our images and any boutique using our images is breaking the law and will be pursed to the furthest extent of the law.
