Most of the fabrics I use are deadstock, end of rolls and sourced locally. It’s important to me to make use of the excess produced from commercial textile manufacturing. Other fabrics are from a retailer who stocks materials made by energy-renewable mills and are OEKO Tex certified.

The loose weave of linen’s composition means it can wear and change over time. I'd be happy to advise you on how to repair or alter your own garments if you get in touch, or you could support your local tailor or dry cleaner by using their services to repair your garment. Visible mends are very beautiful and adds character to cherished clothing.

Natural fibres will gradually wear through use and washing. As a result, the material will become softer and more absorbent. Naturally prone to creasing, linen has a character which means it’ll never quite appear ‘perfect’. Worn best on warm days as the qualities of this fabric make it cooler and the weave allows ease of movement and entry of air.

I advise that you wash your garments at no higher than 30 degrees, wash dark colours separately and avoid drying in direct sun as exposure to sunlight can cause the colours to fade gradually.

Ahead of placing your order please bear in mind that some of my garments are ready to ship, some are on pre-order and some are made to order. Please check information in the product description before placing your order.

We are not able to mark items as a 'gift' or of 'low commercial value’ as it is illegal to do so.

I only accept returns within 7 days of your item arriving, please get in touch to organise a return. Please ensure all items are returned with original tags and in original condition as if the item is deemed as ‘worn’ or in unsatisfactory condition, you will not be entitled to a refund

— I am happy to offer store credit, or if you would like to exchange your item for another item in stock, I can offer this but additional shipping charges will apply.

— Shipping charges are non-refundable unless your garment is faulty in which case you will be refunded in full. To process a return or exchange, please email us at return@bug-clothing.co.uk

International returns / European returns:

Please note all international and European orders are considered final sale once shipped and are not eligible for a refund or exchange. This is due to taxes/customs duties that may arise during the return process/shipping the items back to us. If you have any questions about this please feel free to get in touch

— No returns or exchanges on sale items - these sales are final

Please shop mindfully, try not to order many items to ‘try and see’ and send back. I’m very happy to send additional photos and measurements to help you with your purchase. Care and energy goes into packaging up your orders.

I ask that you cancel your order within 24 hours from purchase, this is because I may have already begun to process it
