Returns and Exchanges Made Simple

Returns Policy Covid Update - 06/01/2021

Please Note: We are short staffed. Half our staff are currently working from home. The people who handle email are working from home and therefore are not at the same locations as return packages. Please allow us extra time for this. We are also experiencing postage delays across the board.

Also while our usual returns policy is 30 days, we have extend this in the case of Christmas Gift Purchases. In light of the ongoing situation with COVID-19 and with the National and Regional Lockdowns in effect, we have decided that the 30 day returns policy should be suspended. We are aware it may not be safe for people to return their parcels as quickly to us as they would usually.

Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your exchanged product to reach you, may vary.

If you are shipping an item over £75, you should consider using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance. We don’t guarantee that we will receive your returned item.

Refund Processing Time

Unfortunately we don't have any control over the time it takes for a card company, paypal etc to refund you. This can be longer then people expect. Once we have made a refund and the payment has left our shopify account we have no access to any further details, your personal card or bank account.

Exchanges & Returns FAQ

2.1	Need a very quick replacement?	Emergencies happen! Normally for an exchange the replacement item is sent out when we receive the returned item. The quickest way to speed up this process is to buy the second required item as normal. We will then dispatch this item the same day as the order is received. With method there is no rush to send back the first incorrect item and no waiting period. (Clearly mark on the package for Refund and include a note as to reason for return).
2.2	Corsets	Try corsets on over a t-shirt, and do not lace them tightly when checking the fit. Corsets that have been tight laced cannot be returned 'as new'.
2.3	Christmas	With Christmas presents the return limit is 28 days from the 25th December. Please note that goods that show signs of excess wear above and beyond the time frame will not be exchanged or refunded.
