Pretty duplicitous and misleading returns policy. They say “easy returns” on their website, but trust me they aren’t. If you are US customer do not fall for this trap. They won’t refund the “custom fe... See more

Disappointing- the quality of the dresses doesn’t match the prices. I was also unaware that no refund option is available on sale items meaning I can’t get my money back. Inspection and postage feee i... See more

Avoid!

Item not as described, the dress came damaged, when I went to return they informed me they want the item sent royal mail tracked (more expensive) only and they do not provide payment for this. Ridiculous! If you are going to send damaged items be prepared to pay for the return. Will not shop again

I believe the quality of this item is not as described.

I believe the quality of this item is not as described. The fringe was very spotty, and not as full as it looks in the photos. The fringe had broken in a couple parts as well. I have not purchased anything from Rare London before, and I was very disappointed in the quality and the misrepresentation of the item.

Sizing is NOT accurate

Do NOT let the sizing fool you. A US 6 is not a true US 6. Couldn’t even get my body inside of the dress. Honestly I would have needed to go up 2, maybe 3 sizes. Don’t waste your time.

Very fast delivery and fast refund

Very fast delivery and the quality of the dress was stunning!! Unfortunately I changed my mind so returned it, had acknowledgement of the return and a refund within a couple of days of returning it. Only down side is I had to pay £10 via Royal Mail to return it signed for to have the value covered had it been lost in the post.

Unfortunetly the quality of the garmet…

Unfortunetly the quality of the garmet was not there. One of the straps was sewn in twisted, some of the fringe was coming off as I took it out of the bag. If you won't cover shipping cost for returning a product. In instances where quality control failed at least you should make sure that you are shipping a piece in excellent condition.

Order never received

I bought a dress in May and it was “shipped” on the 28th of June and it’s August 21th I contact the mail company and they never received the item. Customer service insists that I have to contact the mail service but they are the ones that supposedly sent it. Never buying from them again

Does anyone know anyway to contact this…

Does anyone know anyway to contact this company? I placed in order on 12th July, had an email saying it was out for delivery on 18th July and still nothing. I’ve messages on Facebook and on the website but still not contact. First time I’ve ordered from them and I have lost all hope over ever receiving my order. Bitterly disappointed and upset to have lost money.

I didnt receive a confirmation email…

I didnt receive a confirmation email once I made the order, I had to contact customer service to confirm my pre-order. Once the dress arrived it was torn and not in good condition. The return process was the worst, I had to arrange my own postage which I paid £6.99 + the £3.50 i had to pay for delivery so I wasted nearly £10 on postage. Wont be buying from there again

Items still haven't arrived after 4 weeks

I ordered 3 dresses on 29th June and none have arrived. I have contacted customer services and no-one has come back to me despite chasing. Please be very cautious about ordering with this customer as I have waited nearly 4 weeks with no purchases arriving despite paying for 5-8 days postage. Not impressed with the lack of NO communication.
