For rented goods, the right of withdrawal is excluded.
In any case, the Customer is advised to review the specific conditions applicable to each type of service (rental or purchase), as outlined in the following sections.

In accordance with Article 59 of the Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal does not apply in the following cases:

5. Rental
5.1 Exclusion of the Right of Withdrawal (Art. 59, letter n) Consumer Code)
Standard Rental, Made-to-Measure / Customized Rental
The right of withdrawal is excluded, as this involves the supply of goods made or adapted to the customer’s specifications (Art. 59, letter c) Consumer Code).
WARNING: Pursuant to Article 59, paragraph 1, letter n) of the Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal is EXCLUDED for contracts for services related to leisure activities when the contract specifies a specific date or period of performance.
Customers are expressly informed that renting a garment or accessory on this Website falls under this exception.
Our rental service consists of the exclusive allocation of a physical item (the garment or various accessories) for a specific and non-modifiable period indicated by the Customer at the time of booking.
Consequently, once the booking for a specific date is confirmed and the corresponding garment is removed from inventory availability for that period, the Customer cannot exercise the right of withdrawal under Articles 52 and following of the Consumer Code.
Customer Responsibility Regarding Date Selection
The Customer must carefully verify the correctness of the selected date before proceeding with payment.
Consequences in Case of Customer Error on the Date
If the Customer selects the wrong date and can no longer use the rental for the confirmed date:
The Company may, at its sole discretion and as a commercial courtesy, offer alternatives such as credit for a future rental or the possibility of changing the date, subject to garment availability and the commercial policies in effect at the time of the request.
5.2 Return of the Garment at the End of the Rental
This section exclusively governs the procedure for returning the garment at the end of the agreed rental period and does not concern the exercise of the right of withdrawal.
The return of the garment is an integral part of the rental service and must occur at the end of the agreed period.
The garment must be returned within the terms and according to the methods indicated at the time of order (e.g., home pick-up or shipment via an authorized courier).
In case of late return or damage to the garment, penalties or charges may apply in accordance with the General Rental Conditions.
Failure to comply with the return procedures may result in a charge equal to the replacement value of the item.
