Alterations & Exchanges

Requests may be available for costume exchange only, and an exchange may not be possible due to vendor supply. Requests can be made through this form, where you will also find detailed instructions regarding costume exchanges.

Costume Exchange Policy

Elevation Dance Studio will consider costume exchange requests based on vendor availability. All exchange requests must be submitted within one (1) week of the original costume distribution date. Requests received after this deadline cannot be accommodated.

Costumes must be returned directly from the parent to the vendor in their original packaging and in new, unworn condition with all tags attached. The dancer/parent is responsible for all return shipping costs.

Because EDS orders costumes from multiple vendors, each supplier has its own exchange policies. The parent is responsible for any vendor-imposed exchange, restocking, handling, or shipping fees.

Important Information

• Costume exchanges are subject to vendor inventory and cannot be guaranteed.
• Most costume vendors do not provide prepaid return labels. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the dancer/parent.
• In many cases, vendors charge EDS for the replacement costume before issuing credit for the returned item. If the original costume is not returned to the vendor, the replacement costume will not be considered an exchange. The full replacement costume cost, along with any applicable vendor fees, will be charged to your EDS account.
• Exchanges requested after the one-week deadline cannot be processed.
