Skirting the Rules: Clothing, Alterations, Tux Rental, & Gifts

Skirting the Rules: Clothing, Alterations, Tux Rental, & Gifts Find unique clothing thats made in-house, rent a tux for an upcoming event, or get your clothing tailored to you. Downtown Detroit Lakes, MN

If you need alterations done in the Detroit Lakes, MN area, please check out the Alterations Services page on the website (www.skirtsrule.com) for additional information on services and pricing. We now also offer tuxedo rental for any formal event. Looking for a unique piece that no one else has? You've come to the right spot! These unique skirts, dresses, and scarves are completely handmade in Mi

nnesota from the bolt to the rack, and there are only limited numbers of each one. We are experimenting with various designs and fabrics, so check back often to see what is new. Follow the shop on Facebook- we often ask for design advice, and you can help shape the look of new skirts! www.facebook.com/skirtsrule You can also go to www.skirtsrule.com and sign up for our occasional emails which will have new products as well as coupon codes! We believe fashion is for everyone: all body types, all ages, and should make the wearer feel good, beautiful, and worthy. As “pret-a-porter” fashion for the everyday consumer is becoming a disposable commodity by being cheaply and poorly mass produced in conditions that exploit the sewers, we challenge this by creating high quality clothing that is unique, affordable, and ethically made in Minnesota. The goal of my clothing is to utilize various cuts, fabrics, and an array of sizes in order to make skirts and dresses that match the uniqueness, quality and beauty of the person wearing them. They balance comfort with style, and practicality with desirability.

If you are going to prom on May 2nd your deadline to drop off your dress and still get it done by prom is April 15. There are NO rush options for alterations if you try to bring your dress in after this date; there are simply not enough hours in the day to get them done.
Tux rental deadline is April 23 to avoid rush shipping.
