Great fashionable clothing! It would a little better if the delivery times was quicker.
I finally received my order and not only the quality was terrible but the sizes are not true at all. I normally wear a 2XL so I ordered a 3XL to be safe. Well, the track suite that came barely fit my son who is a large at best.
Very disappointed!

The clothes were not the kind of fabric that it should be it was cheap spongy type fabric on the sweatshirts I ordered and they were not nothing like what they looked in the picture that they displayed and they would only give us part of our refund back f*** China

I was very impressed by the products I ordered, did not expect the quality I got. I inured for such a low price it wouldn't be good. It was perfect and warm.
Before I ordered my stuff for my trip to Hawaii I looked and the shipping and delivery time. (Not what they said it would be) then one of the items they took off and said I would get a refund nothing as of yet now the items is back on the shelf
I'm not happy cause my stuff that I was to take on my trip won't be here until I'm in Hawaii.
Will I order from them again definitely not!

I really liked the head wrap for my hair, I used it after washing my hair and it absorbed the water instantly.
Ordered 2 dresses both were made of very poor quality material so decided to return for a refund. After several emails from them trying to offer me vouchers instead of a refund I confirmed I wanted to return them only to be advised that I would have to pay for a non refundable tracked postage to either China or Asia. Total rip off company selling poorly made goods with no customer service.

Bruger ofte appen, hvor man kan købe mange billige varer. Forsendelsen fungerer og det går hurtigt. Handler tit på appen.
Your product does not meet the sizes you mention, while an XXL shirt is very large, others of the same size are the exact size and they do not mention how to change them... it is very complicated.
Possibly ordering too many items at once is not the best way to order. The order was split, one item that arrived was nothing like I ordered. Another item was way too small, more size for a child but the picture showed adult. The other three items, out of nine, were excellent. I am STILL waiting for the rest of the order to arrive; four more items.
I am not convinced that ordering through this platform is beneficial, more of a gamble.
So be very wary of their product descriptions, as they are incomplete and inadequate. Then when the product needs to be returned for any reason, you have to pay to ship it to China. I would strongly advise you not to get sucked in by the cheap prices, in the end it's not worth it!

I liked the dress. Its print is beautiful. Although it is long, I was expecting a length till my knee, but I still like it as it fits me well.
Il y a énormément de choix! Ils ont beaucoup d'articles que les autres n'ont pas. Je trouve qu'il est facile de naviguer et de trouver les éléments. Les prix sont justes et les rabais sont très intéressants. Le service à la clientèle est très courtois. Je vais commander à nouveau!
Ok experience. I wish there was a better system for when you have to return items that do not fit. Getting only a portion of what you paid just does not seem fair.
Ordered a gown dress for my daughter's birthday. It's the most amazing outfit and daughter is excited to wear for the birthday! The dress was a little long for her and I had to fold it slightly to make sure she doesnt trip on the stairs, but otherwise a great fit. Quality is excellent.
The T-shirts are nice and fits good. And the prices are very cheap.
I purchased a Tuxedo and couldn't return it cause of the 7 day return policy after receiving it. I was on vacation when package came and missed out on the deadline. They gave me a choose of a 60 % of next purchase or 50% cash back and keep product. I choose B option and now am ordering another tuxudo the next size up as I Iove the tuxedo I received. I recommend this site to anyone as they nice to order from.
Satisfied with the order: the shirts came in good condition, their design corresponded to the web pictures, same as their colors.
Produit conforme a la description, bon prix et choix.
Les délai de livraison sont un peu long, mais respecte ou devance ce qui est annoncé.
Answer: Hello, I bought a few things and the quality was not very good and the sizing was totally wrong. I also bought a cellular charger and the battery inside was not soldered correctly. Lightinthebox has great price, but you pay for what you get, which isn't much. I have stopped buying from them.
Answer: Same problem... All thru email
Answer: We didn't buy a dress but the sizes are very small and the returns policy is a joke. I ended up losing money.
Answer: Dear Customer, we do recommend to you to refer to the size chart on each of the clothes first and then pick a suitable size for you.
Answer: Dear Customer, thank you for your inquiry. We're really sorry that our company made you feel nervous. Please kindly note that the total delivery time = processing time + shipping time. So for the arrival date of your package. It depends on the processing time of the product and the shipping method you choose. About the processing time, please kindly check the processing time on the product page. About the shipping time, you mentioned you paid extra fee for faster delivery. If the service you chose was expedited shipping, normally it takes 3-4 business days for shipping. If it's standard service, then 5-8 business days for shipping. If the order is delayed, we'll take full responsibility of that and you can contact us through tickets. You can refer to this guide to contact customer service: http://www.lightinthebox.com/knowledge-base/c1192/a2974.html
Answer: Will you send us your order number so that we can check?
Answer: Dont buy anything from this site. The picture is good, the object quality is garbage. You will be cheated and loose you money.
Answer: You NEVER get your money back... dont use them. I am amazed this company is allowed to trade, I am sure we have law's against this kind of practise.
Answer: Suggest not to buy. Might end up not receiving the order or received the wrong size and would be returning and paying shipping or requesting a refund or not receiving a refund at all. There's more legit company like Amazon where I bought the same one I ordered from Lightinabox, which I did not received. Sorry, but I would not trust this Co for anything. It' up to you to take the risk.
Answer: Count yourself lucky and DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM! You will be disappointed in the clothing and size from this company. All of the clothing I received was horrible quality and did not look at all like the photo they had online. They were just plain awful and the sizing was a joke. I received an XL shirt that would not fit a small person and a Med shirt (was supposed to be the same shirt as the XL) and the medium was literally larger than a 4x One was a terrible quality plain sweatshirt with a sticker posted on it and the other was a draping long gown like garment. I was appalled.would recommend finding a different company.
