2) Pick up the phone and dial 763-323-9507
or 1-800-48-SATIN (72846) or email us during our business
hours Monday - Friday 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM Central Time.
Step
3) Someone from Customer Service will answer.
Tell them you'd like to order custom designed team performance
apparel from Satin Stitches®.
Step
4) Here's one of the scary steps! Our Customer
Service person will grill you about your answers in Step
1. Don't worry! - They won't bite and this will give us
(and maybe you) a much better idea of exactly what you want.
Step
5) We will ask you to send us something
on paper that resembles what you're now considering to have
custom designed: a picture, a sketch, a catalog page with
changes, or even a stick figure with your best first grade
rendition of your design. You will fax (a black & white
sketch) to us at 763.427.5039 or email (a .jpg file) to
us. You may download our body form sketch sheet.
Step
6) At this point, our fashion design team
will look over what you sent. We will recommend whatever
technical or artistic changes may be needed to make a workable,
producable, dazzling high fashion design. You will receive
a fully detailed sketch, with fabric & trim swatches,
for your approval or disapproval, or with changes. You will
also receive price options and discount opportunities at
this time.
Step
7) You may order a sample PRIOR to placing
your complete order IF TIME PERMITS. (There is a $200 SAMPLE
FEE that will be credited to your order invoice once your
order is placed.) OR as most of our customers do - place
your order based on the sketch and the pricing options and
discount opportunities which we provided. We always provide
a “First in Production” sample after your order
is placed.
Step
8) When your “First in Production”
sample is ready, it will be sent to you for your approval.
We will also send along our sizing samples in a similar
silhouette, to try on your team to pick the sizes you need.
Step
9) Once you have reviewed the sample, discussed
with us any needed changes and picked your sizes, you send
everything back to us so we can get working on your order.
Step
10) Now for the FUN part! Sit back and sip
an iced tea, knowing that your costumes will arrive when
you expect them, and looking and fitting exactly as you
imagined!
