This dress was purchased to wear for my daughter's wedding. I really like the feel and fit of the dress!
I just purchased from this company for the first time, the item that I purchased they charged me 2 times for it, immediately I cancel the item before they could really ship it out, Papal are in the process of issuing 1 refund as I write this review, It shows on my bank account where I was charged 2 times for the same item, so I reached out to this company and still know actions are being taken for the second charge, THIS IS NOT EXCEPTABLE
The dress colors are cute but not as vivid as displayed, also it runs smaller than other same size dresses that I've ordered. Plan on keeping it because I do like the material and style.
Horrible customer service, only try to pacify you with extra discount on next order, do not follow their own shipping and delivery policies, slow delivery. Poor cheaply made clothes that are not sized correctly. If you want to return, the charge you shipping again and make you jump thru hoops to get an address to send to and you must do it within 7 days. Do not communicate thru customer service just auto messages. Better off ordering from Shein

I have no problem with the delivery. It came quite quickly. However, everything I ordered is too small. I used your size guides and trusted that because of my previous order. Which, by the way, fit and looked great. I'd send everything back for an exchange but, shipping costs are prohibitive...
Guess I just gotta eat $104!
Bon produit pas cher mais le transport était beaucoup plus cher que le prix de l'article
Your prices are great, you have everything, and you don't have to stand in line or go out in the cold. Who wouldn't want to shop here
Everything came i like the colors and am impressed with the quality of the merchandise. However i have had problems with the sizes but i will get that fixed myself
The order was shipped promptly and arrived quickly. The tote bag I ordered was exactly as described and depicted on the website. I also ordered a pair of shoes for my daughter earlier in 2022 and was very, very pleased! Thank you!
One of the dresses draw was unraveled another was too tight the other two fit it k
Fast delivery, good quality, good fit - highly recommended shop
And I'm not Cynthia obviously claiming my review. I'm Mona Polotzek, Miami
I placed my order, received confirmation, tracked the process and received my order as advised. This was a re-order of a previous order, only in a larger size. I kept the first order as it fit my 2nd grandson. Now the 1st grandson will have his outfit as well.
These leggings are fleeced lined I purchased these for the wife and loves them. She is very pleased with the comfort and fit. They are good quality and the size chart is right on for the size. Shipping is okay for they come from across the ocean. Very pleased customer.
The sizes are right on.
Despite the busy season they came through with my order in a timely manner.
Great Company.
Product was ordered before Christmas and was received 6 weeks afterwards.
Takes a couple weeks to get items but they are of good quality and as advertised
Mostly everything I bought was good. Material is OK, some were cheap looking. Not bad for the prices though.
Pour les achats 2 janvier, je suis très satifait des produits reçu.Numéro de commande: ******* / date d'achat 2 janvier.aucun achat le 23 janvier.
Everything was as advertised and arrived as noted.
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.
