Legal Stuff <3
Brass Monkey Swimwear is not legally responsible when a customer asks for a design that happens to be similar to someone else's design, whether it has been seen or not. Please do NOT send me a sample preview of someone else's work therefore it can not hold me at all responsible for "seeing" the other person's design and/or work. Most times customers will send me their ideas, we will create and sketch the design, and THEN I find that it was similar in SOME ways to someone else's design. This is not something that I am or will be responsible for. This responsibility falls on the customer to understand that they can not request a design that is so closely to another they have seen on the web, especially one not made by Brass Monkey Swimwear.
Brass Monkey Swimwear is not legally responsible for any photos posted on the Internet that do not provide our business name or business ownership name. Any photos on the Web/social media pages that do not proclaim our business name or business ownership name in the photo that are questioned we are not legally responsible for and please contact us immediately and we will gladly remove them. This includes but is not limited to photos of people, animals, retail, places and cartoons. Any misuse of photos on the web containing our Legal name, Legal Logo or business ownership name we will be forced to fully prosecute in a court of law.
Custom Designs are only sketched and approved by the customer and once approved by the customer created. Any Alterations after is charged at $20 per hour and any hardware or fabric needed is paid for by the customer.
The customer, upon purchasing, agrees to release Brass Monkey Swimwear from any fault due to customer requests. To understand better what is too "close" to another designers or web owner's designs ... the swimsuit has to be different in some way than someone else's designs. However, you may request elements that someone else has used because last time I checked straps, hardware, triangles, Bandeaux's, rouging, bows, lace, braiding, pearls, sequins, ruffles, buttons, patchwork, monokinis, layering, fringe etc. were not created by any specific fashion designer in this world. Those were all things that came along WAY before the internet world. So you MAY request these things in your design and continue doing so. You may not change or alter our design and advertise it as Brass Monkey Swimwear.
Please note for custom work we work within a schedule and 50% down is required. Please see our refund exchange policy for general purchases.
We ask that you please choose carefully before making your purchase, as we do not ever give refunds if you simply change your mind or make a wrong selection. We will gladly exchange it if it follows our exchange policy.
Refunds and Chargebacks All designs are sold as seen unless custom specified. No refunds are given on any of our products at any time, even if you decide down the line to cancel your order, we do not accept this. If you decide to do a claim we will fight it all the way. Brass Monkey Swimwear will never give out personal client information to any one. Your identity is protected under privacy laws.

Foster Care, Dog Bitten and A Dose of Self Worth Inspired BMS to Design Their 1st Fitness Bikini
For years the question to design fitness competition swimsuits has been tossed around...Requests have been turned into offering our other styles which are quite different than what you see on stage. Designing fitness suits has always been an idea as I love fitness and have been dedicated to the lifestyle all my life but it was always put on the back burner. BMS produces unique custom styled swimsuits but none of them have the style you might find at a competition show. As a self taught designer there are Limitations to what is being made having to learn new techniques on my own at my own pace. The story included you're about to read is real and not fabricated to say the least. BMS has always true heartedly designed from inspiration, every suit has a reason it's made and has a story to tell and thats been documented from day one of opening the business. Brass Monkey Swimwear for the very first time has a reason and an inspiration to design our very first Fitness Competition Swimsuit for the friend in this story below. Our style has always been one of a kind and easily spotted apart from other swim lines having a custom tailored look and I predict this suit we make will do the same. So will there be more BMS Fitness suits? I'm not so sure. We'll have to see how it turns out. (the suit pictured on Christine is not our suit, BMS suit will be ready mid May 2013)
I'd like to take a moment to recognize an old friend. Some of you might know her and some might not. This is Christine Huber. Christine and I went to High School together. She grew up in foster homes and group homes never understanding why she wasnt wanted. Among other life struggles a tragic incident struck during high school years... She was attacked in the face by a dog ... In fact this quote from Christine to myself might Shock you....
"Oh....Jean, you were awesome. I remember everyone at the party being like "what do we do - omg her face is gone" and YOU said wtf people put her in the car, were taking her to the hospital", I believe you said your aunt was a nurse and I heard you tell someone "go look for her lip, if the dog didn't eat it, put it on ice and we can save it" & apparently someone did find it and put it on ice cause it was reconstructed onto my face. I truly believe you helped save me that night! You were so calm and level headed amongst so much chaos & that's why I reached out to you a while ago to thank you. It's almost like you were my guardian angel that night! Much love girl! Xoxoxo Christine Huber~
Much has happened since that day long ago. Struggles with weight and self confidence were an every day battle. Christine made the decision to take control of her life. She started a positive routine and workout schedule and stayed focused on her goals. The before and after photos I've posted blew me away, not to mention her feelings on what she remembered on that tragic day in high school. I am proud of you Christine and all of your accomplishments. You are a true inspiration to all people and woman. I am sending you a complimentary BMS Bikini in honor of your courage, dedication, and believing you CAN achieve anything in life and reach your goals <3 God Bless ... Jean McHugh
