Gorgeous clothes, amazing service

I recently ordered from Runaway The Label for my Europe trip and couldn’t be happier! Their customer service team was incredibly responsive and helpful, quickly sorting out my queries. The dispatch and delivery were impressively fast – perfect when you’re on a tight schedule.

The clothes are absolutely gorgeous – stylish, flattering, and made from really pleasant fabrics that feel great to wear.

One thing to keep in mind: they don’t offer refunds, only store credit. So if you need to exchange a size or style, allow some extra time for the return to be processed. Otherwise, you might end up with a fair bit of credit like me:)

All in all, highly recommend – just read the returns policy before ordering. Will definitely be shopping with them again!

Absolute scam of a company

Absolute scam of a company. They bury the fine print of no refunds deep in their checkout flow, which is highly deceitful and unacceptable for an Australian company that’s subject to more stringent consumer protection standards than a US one. Their clothes are HORRIBLE quality and look way cheaper and misleading than they do online, which doesn’t justify the premium price point similar to Revolve which actually has great quality clothes. Highly recommend filing a credit card dispute under the code “I was charged a higher amount than expected” and submitting evidence of their checkout flow fine print and undisclosed return shipping fee that’s $40+ USD for polyester.

Amazing quality and great service…

Amazing quality on the clothes I have purchased so far.
I am leaving for Europe on Sunday night, really needed the items to arrive before I left. The customer service team helped ensure that the clothes arrived in time for me to take overseas.
Very helpful and quick on communication

DO NOT BUY NO REFUNDS AND YOU PAY CRAZY EXPENSIVE SHIPPING!!

Not even bothering to attempt to return the dress I bought that doesn’t fit. They want $46 of the $189 I spent for me to ship it back ONLY to get a store credit. I will sell the dress on PoshMark to recoup more money than I would get with this company. I’ve never run into a retailer who doesn’t offer refunds and return labels included. BEWARE of this website!!!!!

Return Customer …

I’ve bought numerous dresses from Runaway The Label and been very pleased with all of them. The company is easy to deal with and they deliver quickly, even though I’m in New Zealand. The quality of the clothing is very good and they always look identical to the product image, they are true to size as well. Very satisfied customer.

Ive ordered twice with Runaway

Ive ordered twice with Runaway. I love their designs. They do have a strict return policy, but thats the chance you take with these sites. Most places don't return sale items.
But heir prices are very reaonable for the quality.
That aside, I received a faulty item on a non returnable item. In australia, any faulty item must be replaced (or refunded if a replacement isn't an option)
Mia was amazing and sent me a new one. She was absolutely lovely, and made sure I was happy.
Some of the reviews I've read gave 1 star because of the return policy.
But the policy is something the purchaser should always check before placing an order.
Dont get caught and blame the company.

Please do not buy from this store

Please do not buy from this store , it’s a scam ! I had the worst customer service experience! The clothes are not true to size , you can’t exchange, they dont offer the option of full refund back to your credit card. The only option they offer is the credit store. In addition, the shipping costs are also covered by the customer .

Store credit does not suit everyone. Consider offering refunds…

Clothes are not suited to my body type but I am stuck with a store credit in the hope that I might find something that I like or might suit me. Would much prefer to be able to access a refund - I’m spending more money on return postage in the vain hope of actually finally finding something to use the credit on. I now have 3 different store credits based off one item that I purchased 6 months ago

⭐ 1 Star – Disappointing Customer Service Experience

I had a really disappointing experience with Runaway The Label. I purchased two dresses after carefully reviewing their size guide and customer reviews, but both dresses were far too large. I immediately contacted customer service to request a simple exchange for a smaller size.

Despite the items being on sale, I wasn’t asking for a refund—just an exchange—but was told only a store credit would be issued. This goes against Australian Consumer Law, which protects customers when items are not as described or don’t match the advertised fit.

Unfortunately, the customer service representative (Mia) was unhelpful and dismissive. I had no choice but to escalate the matter to Fair Trading and the ACCC to have my rights acknowledged.

I won’t be shopping here again and would caution others to think twice, especially if you’re relying on accurate sizing or expect any flexibility in customer service.

I wish I read the reviews here before purchasing as I would have gone elsewhere.

STOCK AVALIBILITY

Disappointing Experience with Dress Order
I ordered a bridesmaid dress in size XXL from Runaway The Label during their EOFY sale, only to be told after purchase that the item wouldn’t be restocked. This was incredibly stressful, as it was the final dress needed for my bridal party and I had trusted the website’s availability.

The situation was poorly handled overall. I was left scrambling for a solution with no ability to hold stock or get a guaranteed restock, even though I’d already paid. For something as important as a wedding, you’d expect better transparency and reliability especially when dealing with bridal items where timing matters.
I’ve accepted store credit, but the experience left me frustrated, disappointed, and wary of relying on Runaway The Label for anything time-sensitive again.

Hi Jasmine,

We’re really sorry for the stress this caused during such an important time.

Our customer service team works hard to keep our website information up to date, but due to the popularity and fast sell-out of certain styles, items can occasionally become unavailable during the fulfillment process.

We understand how frustrating this must have been and truly appreciate your patience.

Your feedback has been noted, and we’re working to improve. Wishing you all the best for your special day!

Runaway The Label or RUN AWAY FROM THE LABEL

Runaway The Label? More like Run-AWAY from the label. The marketing had me convinced I was ordering something chic, elevated, and wearable — but what showed up looked like a pair of toilet paper shorts. Don’t get me started on the buttons on the shorts — you know, the ones that magically do not exist on the model shots. What are we hiding, Runaway?

The fabric feels like it came from the reject pile of a Shein factory, yet somehow this was marked up 500% to pretend it’s premium. Spoiler alert: it’s not. It’s fast fashion in disguise, wrapped up in a marketing bow of deception and Facetune.

I don’t care how many influencers are paid to twirl around in this nonsense — behind closed doors, this brand is cutting corners like it’s an Olympic sport. You can’t get away with selling this level of quality and hoping no one notices.

Do better.

If i could give 0 stars I absolutely would.

Don’t waste your money or time on this brand

I bought a dress and it broke within an hour of wearing it. I emailed to ask for a new one to be exchanged and they refuse completely because "i already wore it". Were replying quickly until I stated that I’m legally entitled to a full refund or a new item. Sent only half the money I spent, along with a rude email from Mia, who has been unhelpful and rude throughout all communications. Had to email a further three times and message their insta to get the other half of the refund. Also commented about my experience on their instagram and they straight up deleted it instead of addressing it. Never order from here unless you want expensive items that break in an hour, or customer service who are rude and ignore what you say. Refund is still pending.

Dispatch & Shipping

Their express shipping to the US is horrible. I placed my order on 6/13. They say their dispatch time can take 1-3 business days. Until the item is dispatched, there is no way to track the order.

It is now 6/24 and I have yet to receive notification of dispatch. I have no idea what is going on with my order, because I cannot track. I emailed customer service over 2 days ago and have heard nothing. I just expected more for the price of their clothing and shipping.

Part of my order was a dress for a wedding party. I have to now order something else, because I have zero faith that my item is even close to being shipped.

Never order from them. I had a very disappointing experience

I had a very disappointing experience. I placed an order from Dubai and was shocked by the poor quality of the item. On top of that, I paid extra for delivery, and they don’t accept returns—only offer store credit. My total was $150, but if I wanted to return it, I’d only get $100 in store credit and would have to pay an additional $40 for return shipping.

DHL was begging runway the label to accept the return, but they said through the item away.

*****You apology is not acceptable and your customer service is extremely rude and unhelpful.

In the end, returning the item costs more than it’s worth. Their customer service was extremely difficult to deal with, and the product quality is far below expectations. Honestly, it’s not worth the money, and I strongly advise against ordering from them.
