Feature edit


Feature edit is about updating or swapping specific parts of a garment — like collars, cuffs, zippers, or hems — without changing its overall shape.

It’s ideal for refreshing worn features, adding new design details, or subtly modernizing a piece.

We divided each category into three budget tiers—basic, standard, and premium—based on the complexity, time, and skill required for the transformation.
