If your purchase is too big, too small, not your colour or simply not what you expected, you can return it for a refund or credit, subject to the following terms:
1. Received Back Within 10 Days
The Item must be received back by the store it was sent from within 10 days of receipt. The address for return will be on your packing slip. Please ensure you double check this as different items are despatched from different stores and it is not acceptable to send two items from different stores back to one store. Additional freight will be deducted from your refund if this happens.
2. Original Tags Still Intact
The item must have all original swing tags still attached. Swing tags that have been detached may mean that the originating store will offer a credit only. No swing tags at all will void acceptance of the item back.
3. Unworn, Brand New Condition
The item must be in unworn condition, is odour free, is undamaged and in full resaleable condition.
4. Original Packaging
Any packing unique to a garment must be returned with the garment in acceptable condition. Shoes received in a shoe box, must be received back in their original shoe box.
5. The Item Was Not Listed as 'Final Sale'
Returns will not be accepted on products that have been listed as final sale either as a clearance sale or on some PREORDER items. If an items is being sold as 'final sale' this will be noted on the product description. Otherwise our normal returns policy applies.
As of January 1st 2023, we no longer offer refunds on Laybuy orders. If the item you’ve purchased is unsuitable, you can still return the item (as long as it meets our returns policy) and a credit voucher will be issued. Credits are valid for 12 months.
Please note that for hygiene reasons we are unable to accept returns on face masks, swimwear, perfume (unless unopened), underwear or jewellery items that are worn in piercings.
If ALL these criteria are met and the store confirms this, a refund is offered which is processed by our ecommerce partner Mode.co.nz.
If ANY of these criteria are not met, the item may either be accepted back for a Store credit, or, depending on the condition of the garment, as determined by the receiving store, returned to you as not acceptable for resale.
Suggestions to ensure our Refund Policy criteria are met:
Contact the store immediately upon receipt of your item if there are no swing tags attached or the item is not in acceptable condition - the store may ask for pictures to be sent.
Ensure the item is not left in an area where food is being cooked as many food smells can permeate a garment, making it unsaleable as a new item.
Ensure that when you try the garment on, that you avoid deodorant marks or heavy scents as these too can give the effect of the garment being worn and in unsaleable condition.
Leave swing tags attached until you are sure you are keeping the item.
Use a tracked courier service as delays in transit will affect the validity of your refund.
