Retail · Software for boutiques

Follow each client from first fitting to final alteration, with every piece on hold and on approval.

Boutiques sell few pieces to clients they know by name, and much of the sale happens in the fitting room and at the tailor. The software keeps client measurements, pieces held for a client, alteration jobs with trial dates and designer stock on consignment. Deposits and balances stay on the client’s record.

At a glance

A boutique sells a small, curated range to people it knows. One dress might exist in only a few sizes, and the client may come back three times before it leaves the shop.

One client file carries her measurements, the pieces she has tried and the tailor’s notes. Whoever is on the floor can see a hold, a deposit or a pinned hem, so she never repeats herself.

How the work runs today

Pieces arrive from designers, small labels and the boutique’s own atelier, some bought outright and some on consignment, and each one is tagged, steamed and hung on the rail. A stylist pulls a rail for a client, notes what she tried and sets aside what she wants to see again.

Many pieces need work before they leave. The client is measured, pins are placed, and the seamstress takes the dress away with a slip that names a trial date. A deposit is taken. The rest follows at collection.

Seasonal drops, trunk shows and private evenings fill the calendar. Designers are paid on what sold, and unsold consignment goes back to them at the end of the agreed term.

Where it breaks

What goes wrong for boutiques without a proper system.

Client preferences live in the stylist’s head

Sizes, colours she avoids, the occasion she shops for and past purchases are remembered by one person. When that person is off, the client starts again.

Held pieces block other sales

A gown is set aside for a client on a pencil note. The hold lapses without anyone saying so. A second client is told it is unavailable.

Alteration slips go missing

The seamstress works from a paper tag. The trial date slips, the client arrives for her fitting, and the dress is still pinned on a hanger at the back.

Consignment accounts are settled late

A designer’s pieces sold across several weeks, and the amount owed is added up from receipts. The designer disputes the figure.

Deposits sit outside the sale

A client pays a deposit towards a made-to-order piece. Months later nobody agrees what remains. The balance becomes an argument at the counter.

What the software does

What we would build for boutiques.

Named the way your team already talks about the work. We start with whichever part the audit shows is costing you most.

Client file with measurements

Keep each client’s measurements, preferred sizes, occasions, past purchases and the stylist’s notes on one record that any colleague on the floor can open before she arrives.

Holds and approval pieces

Set a piece aside for a client with an expiry date, or send it out on approval, and release it when the hold ends.

Alteration and tailoring jobs

Issue a job to the seamstress with pin notes, trial date and charge, and track it from the first fitting through each trial to collection. The counter sees status.

Fitting-room appointments

Book private fittings and styling sessions by stylist and room, and see which pieces were pulled for each visit. Walk-ins go in too.

Designer consignment and buy-in stock

Hold pieces by designer as bought or consigned, and see what is sold, unsold and owed when the agreed term ends, without adding up till slips by hand.

Deposits and made-to-order balances

Take a deposit on a special order, record each part payment against it, and show the remaining balance when the client collects. Counter staff quote the same figure every time.

Common questions

Questions boutiques ask before they call.

Can a piece be held for a client without removing it from the rail count?

Yes. The client’s file lists the held piece beside a date on which the hold lapses. Staff can still see the piece, but it is marked unavailable for sale until the hold ends, so nobody promises it twice.

How are designer consignments settled?

Each piece is tagged to its designer and agreement, and sales are totalled for the term while unsold pieces are listed for return. The terms themselves come from your agreement with each designer.

Is this meant for a boutique with its own tailors?

Yes. The tailoring job is a record apart from the sale, with its own trial date and charge. A boutique that sends work to a freelance seamstress can use the same screen.

Can the stylist see a client’s past purchases?

Yes, on the client file. Past pieces, sizes bought and alterations made are listed. A new suggestion builds on what she already owns.

What happens after I share my requirements?

An engineer reads what you send and replies within one business day. We then look at the software, spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups your business runs on today and write down what works, what slows your team down and what is missing. A demo login, a screen-share or a few screenshots are enough. You get a short written summary ordered by priority, with no obligation to hire us afterwards.

How much will the software cost?

We don’t publish a price, because it depends on what the system has to do. That first review settles the scope, and the cost goes into a written proposal before any work starts.
