Returning For Replacement or Refund

Your satisfaction is of utmost importance to the DressFirst.com Team. Upon the arrival of your package, it is suggested that you check and make sure the dress has been made in accordance with your order specifications. Please try on your dress as soon as possible without altering, removing the tags, or washing the dress.

If you are returning or exchanging dresses or accessories, please make sure they are in their original conditions - unworn, unwashed, unaltered, undamaged, clean, free of lint and hair and with tags intact and attached.

Defective, Damaged or Mis-shipped Items

You are qualified to get a full refund if your items are defective, damaged or mis-shipped. If you believe your items were damaged during delivery, you must first obtain "Proof of Damage" documentation from your delivery carrier, which needs to be included in your returned package.

Sizing or Fitting Issues

As all of our dresses are hand-sewn and customized, the finished gown may vary by approximately one inch in either direction of the specified measurements. To ensure that your dress will still fit you perfectly, our tailors have created all our dresses with additional fabric in the seams to allow minor size modifications. 

Size Deviation

If your dress size differs from the specifications of your order by more than one inch, please feel free to choose from the following options:

You are encouraged to find a local tailor to make adjustments. In this case, we will reimburse you for up to 40% of the product price as tailoring costs. If you choose this option, please remember to request a receipt from your tailor as a copy of it must be provided when requesting reimbursement.

Item is the size you ordered but does not fit

Please understand that items that do not fit properly but in accordance with the specifications you ordered cannot be returned or exchanged.

You can go to a local tailor or a professional seamstress to have the dress re-sized at your own cost:

Please note that if your order specifications differ too greatly from the final sizing request, re-sizing may not be possible.

Color Mismatch

The settings of your computer screen may alter the color of the pictures shown on DressFirst.com . Slight color aberration of your dress and the color shown on screen may not mean that the dress is defective or mis-shipped. However, if you are positive that you have received the item in a wrong color, please contact Customer Service to see if a return or refund is possible. 

Items that cannot be returned or exchanged due to hygienic reasons

Perishables, earrings (including jewelry sets containing earrings), and personal care items (including lingerie, etc) are final sale, no returns, no exchanges.
