Orders
We are a made-to-order brand and make every garment fresh upon receiving an order and then ship it. At present our delivery timeline is 20-23 business days. Ideally, we process all orders within the promised time. However, there may be a little delay sometimes since Buna follows a predominantly hand-intensive production cycle which is slow in nature and includes hand weaving of the textiles on traditional pitlooms, hand block printing, hand embroideries and hand finishing. These processes can occasionally go through unforeseen delays due to the human factor.
We aim to bring the rich heritage crafts of India with a contemporary twist to your doorstep. Our bespoke apparel line is based on environmentally sustainable practices. We want to bring you the finest handcrafted garments from India and at the same time ensure that in doing so, we do the least harm to our planet.
Once your order is shipped, the shipping company usually takes around 3-4 days to deliver international orders depending on location and around 1-4 days for domestic orders.
Our sincere aim is to stand by the timeline offered on the website. Feel free to question us at care@bunastudio.com or WhatsApp us on +91 9310164266.

Yes, you can change the size or the dress within the first 3 days after placing an order. Please write to us at care@bunastudio.com or WhatsApp us on +91 9310164266 to request change of dress or size.
Please note after an order is placed on the online store, a customer can ask for cancellation, refund and customisation/changes within first 3 days. Buna is a designer label and works on a ‘made to order’ model, which means we make every garment fresh upon receiving an order and do not stock it beforehand. Once an order goes into production, customisation or cancellation/refund is not possible. From the textile weaving to the final stitch in a garment, our production is labour and hand intensive; which means that orders already underway cannot be altered.
To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging and must be returned within 7 working days after delivery. This is applicable for all domestic (within India) returns. Please note that for our international customers, returns are not always possible due to logistic issues. We would suggest you to go through our entire return and refund policy here - https://www.bunastudio.com/policies/refund-policy.

PAYMENTS
We use Razorpay Secure to process domestic and international payments on our website. If the gateway does not respond or shows as payment failed, you can get in touch with us on care@bunastudio.com. You can also try using another debit/credit card. Often payments fail due to the following reasons:
a. Card issuing bank sending the decline code. This means that the bank which has issued your debit/credit card is not validating the payment. You can get in touch with your bank on their phone banking helpline and request them to allow the payment to go through.
b. Authentication failure. Please check that you feed in correct authentication values (numeric, alphabetic or alphanumeric) when intimated from your bank while attempting the payment.
c. International bank networking failure. Sometimes international payments fail because the card issuing bank declines it for being an overseas payment. You can get in touch with your bank on their phone banking helpline and request them to allow the payment to go through.
d. Card is not approved for international payments. If you are attempting the payment from outside India and the payment is failing, please check that your card is valid for making international payments. You can activate the same either by calling the phone banking helpline of your bank or through the bank’s internet banking or mobile banking.

FABRIC AND CARE
Every Buna garment is accompanied with a wash-care tag, kindly follow the instructions on the tag. Below are some general wash care guidelines:
Hand wash all Buna garments separately in cold water using very mild detergent and put them for drying inside out in shade. You can gently rub the fabric while washing. For ironing either use a steam iron or iron them on low heat on the reverse side.
Garments in silk, silk blend, merino wool, linen and organza come with a dry-clean only tag due to the delicate nature of the fibres. Garments with hand embellishments should also be dry-cleaned. Always air these garments after dry-cleaning to get rid of any odour. You can use eco-friendly dry-cleaning. There are two dry-cleaning options that are considered eco-friendly - wet cleaning and liquid carbon dioxide cleaning. Both of them do not use toxic chemicals in the cleaning process.
All our garments are made out of pre-washed fabrics and consequently shrinkage is not possible. Please do not use harsh detergents (like starch, bleach, stain removers, etc) on any Buna garments while washing or otherwise.
Please note that any subtle imperfections or irregularities in the weave, texture and colours of Buna garments are a natural outcome of handcrafted, hand block printed or handmade textiles and not a defect. Unique weaving and block print markings and imperfections are a result of the handmade process and show the makers touch making each piece unique.
COLORS
The colors seen in the image on the website may vary from the actual product due to different screen resolutions and displays. Dark colors may look lighter in direct sunlight. Please also note that any subtle variations or imperfections in the colors of hand block printed garments are a natural outcome of handcrafted textiles and not a defect. Hand block printed garments are produced through manual processes and the color is also created by artisans manually. These colors are also affected by the prevailing weather conditions where they are printed. Consequently, subtle variations in the color are a natural outcome of hand block printed garments.
