FAQs

Everything you need to know before you order.

Height customisation

How does height customisation work? +
When you place an order, you enter your height. We cut your garment to that length during production — not as a hem adjustment after the fact. The silhouette, drape, and proportions all fall exactly where they should for your body.
Is it available on all products? +
Yes. Every piece in our collection is made to your height at no extra charge.
Will my order take longer because it's customised? +
No. Our standard production and delivery timelines already account for customisation. No extra wait.
What if I have an unusual proportion or specific request? +
Write to us at houseofsolaura@gmail.com before ordering. We handle specific requests on a case-by-case basis and will always try to accommodate.

Fabrics

What fabrics does House of Solaura use? +
Only natural fabrics — primarily linen and cotton. No polyester, no viscose, no synthetic blends. Every fabric is chosen for how it performs in Indian weather: breathable, skin-friendly, and built to last.
Why only natural fabrics? +
Synthetic fabrics trap heat, hold moisture, and often contain chemical residues that irritate skin. Natural fabrics breathe, wick moisture, and improve with every wash. We manufacture at export level — using anything less would defeat the point.
Will the fabric shrink after washing? +
Linen and cotton can have minimal shrinkage on the first wash, which is accounted for in our sizing. Wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C and line dry in shade to maintain fit and colour.
How do I care for my Solaura pieces? +
Gentle machine wash at 30°C, mild detergent, no fabric softener, line dry in shade. Avoid direct sunlight when drying. Iron on medium heat while slightly damp for a crisp finish. Full care instructions are included with every order.

Sizing & fit

How do I find my size? +
We recommend going by your body measurements rather than your usual size label — sizing varies between brands. Each product page has a size guide. If you're unsure, email us before ordering.
Do your clothes fit both petite and tall frames? +
Yes — that's the whole point. Height customisation means the length is adjusted for your frame, whether you're 4'10" or 6'0". The garment fits as intended regardless of your height.
What if my size isn't listed? +
Reach out to us at houseofsolaura@gmail.com. We accommodate custom size requests where possible.

Orders & delivery

How long does delivery take? +
Standard delivery across India is 5–7 business days from the date of dispatch. You'll receive a tracking link once your order ships.
Can I cancel or change my order? +
Cancellations are accepted within 24 hours of placing the order. After that, production begins and cancellations are not possible. Write to us immediately at houseofsolaura@gmail.com if you need to cancel.
Do you ship internationally? +
Not currently. We're focused on India for now. International shipping is on our roadmap — follow us on Instagram @houseofsolaura to be notified when it's available.

Returns & exchanges

What is your exchange policy? +
We offer exchanges within 7 days of delivery. Contact us at houseofsolaura@gmail.com within that window with your order details and reason for exchange.
Do you offer refunds? +
We don't offer cash refunds. For genuine manufacturing defects or quality issues, we will exchange the piece or issue store credit. We stand behind the quality of everything we make.
What if my order arrives damaged or defective? +
Contact us within 7 days of delivery with photos and, if possible, an unboxing video. We'll arrange a replacement at no cost. Return shipping for quality issues is covered by us.
Can I exchange a height-customised piece? +
Customised pieces are made specifically for you, so standard size-based exchanges don't apply. However, if there is a manufacturing defect or we made an error in the customisation, we will fix it — contact us and we'll sort it out.

Payments

What payment methods do you accept? +
All major credit and debit cards, UPI, and net banking via Razorpay. All transactions are secure.

About Solaura

Where are your clothes made? +
Everything is designed and manufactured in Chennai at Sumathi Garments — our in-house manufacturing unit. We produce for export clients as well, so your order goes through the same quality process as international orders.
How is Solaura different from other Indian fashion brands? +
Three things: only natural fabrics, height customisation at no extra charge, and everything made in our own factory. Most brands offer one of these. We built the brand around all three.
