Great quality
I bought the Blue Blur Mesh long sleeve Top but had never heard of the brand before so was unsure about the quality. The top is well-made, the sleeves are see-through but the front and back have an extra material layer for coverage. I chose the standard shipping but the turnaround was only 4 days from when I placed my order. Would recommend.

Delivery etc was fine but annoyed with the price drop!
I bought the dress on Black Friday as the "countdown" was on. Only to find 2 days later the dress I bought was even cheaper! Royal wind up if I'm honest as the dress was a treat for me and I could have got it cheaper but marketing led me to believe the sale would be over.

Hi Miss S Faulkner,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are really sorry to hear about your frustration regarding the price drop. We did offer great deals during Black Friday, and those promotions were then extended into Cyber Monday. We understand that seeing a lower price just after you made your purchase can feel frustrating, we apologize for any frustration caused.
We appreciate your support and hope to see you again soon!

Order 19914- Ordered a dress 3 weeks ago. Tracking is available for the UK but nothing once in the US. I have an event in 2 days and no package or response from the multiple times I have emailed or messaged from the website. I don't know if I like the dress or not because I still haven't received it. Have ordered from the UK from other businesses and get item in a week.

I never got my parcel
I never got my parcel. Royal Mail’s notification said it was sent back because the address was incorrect. Definitely not the case. I had to order an alternative dress from elsewhere so I can have something to wear on Friday.

Gorgeous dress!
I wore the dress to the wedding, and I received so many compliments! The dress is embroidered with sequins, which can cause irritation in the underarm area due to friction. If you plan to wear it for a long time, like I did, it's important to be aware of this. It’s not too bad, though; the irritation went away after just one day.
