Bought 3 dresses for a ball. All beautiful but sizes were different despite ordering the same size for all 3. The website will say true to size but I find you need to buy 2 sizes to be sure. Delivery... See more

They went bankrupt and didn't communicate this to customers until they were days away from ceasing operations. They kept taking orders. I am £100 down because they never refunded the first return and when i attempted ro return a further 2 dresses I was met with the bankruptcy surprise on their website, stating they would not be refunding any recent orders. Scummy. I feel sorry for those who lost their job though.

Terrible

Terrible. The dress took forever to arrive, and was awful! Trying to get a refund took weeks and weeks! I’d never use this company again.

No refund issued for returned item

I returned an item from my order and had a notification 3 weeks ago to say it had been received. No refund has been issued and there is no response when I try to chase it. I'm absolutely fuming. Avoid like the plague!!!!

I was happy with the two dresses that I ordered but returned the one that I chose not to wear. It was received by you on 21 October but I am still waiting for a refund. I just feel that it is taking a bit long but apart from that your dresses are lovely and lots of choice.

I returned an item a month ago

I returned an item a month ago, I got an email to say they received it 3 weeks ago and I still have not received a refund. Every time I try to make contact is says they’re ’closed for maintenance’. I would avoid ordering anything for now. They used to be good so am not sure what’s happening

Avoid - Failed to refund returned items

Dont like that you have to pay multiple delivery costs if they are coming from separate suppliers, there's no benefit to ordering from this platform especially when the individual suppliers can offer discounts.
Returned items over a month ago, have received confirmation that my refund has been authorised but still waiting for funds to be credited. Now well over their agreed timescales, app is down, website is down, no response on FB Messenger, have potentially gone into administration?

Zero contact and returns

They have had my returns for over a month now and I’ve had an email on 10/10 saying they are processing my return and it will be with me shortly. Since then absolutely zero contact and say they are off line each time! I’ve contacted via Facebook and instagram and nothing! Do not buy from here!

Lovely dresses, quick delivery, disappointing refund service

Lovely dresses and very efficient in arriving. However, I returned some as they didn’t fit and I received an email a month ago to say they had been received but haven’t had a refund yet and can’t get on to the website or anything to contact them about it. This part is really disappointing and I really need it sorted out.
