Great Quality, Fabulous Customer Service
I ordered a set of about 30 dresses for a show choir, and I was honestly blown away by the quality. The dresses were extremely well made with heavier zippers that don’t need to be replaced after one wear.
Customer service was outstanding - a rep (Joyce) reached out to me after I submitted my order to double check the sizes and the date I needed the dresses by. I got the dresses earlier than expected and she was so kind. Would absolutely order from them again!

I am beyond angry and disappointed
I am beyond angry and disappointed. I ordered matching dresses for New Year's Eve, but they are a total catastrophe.
The dresses look nothing like the pictures, the bottom part has extra fabric that wasn't shown online at all. Furthermore, the sizing is completely wrong: S fits like an M, and M fits like an L. They look like shapeless sacks on us.
The worst part? When I complained about the wrong design and sizing, customer service seriously suggested I take them to a tailor to get them fixed!
Now they want me to pay for expensive shipping from Germany to the USA and charge a 15% restocking fee for faulty items. I was literally in tears. I will NEVER order here again.

To verify the issue you are experiencing, we have taken photos of the product in our warehouse. The photos show that the product's appearance matches the pictures. We have sent you the photos via email.
Based on the pictures you provided, we believe you may have mixed up the inside and outside. Please turn the product you received inside out; the side you are currently wearing should be the outer side of the skirt, and the side shown is the lining.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Good customer service
UPDATED. Very disappointed. Quality of dresses (three) was very good. I’m normally a size 10. Ordered a size to be sure. 4 inches / 10 cams too tight on the zip. Dress said 8. When I queried, they said it was a USA 8, UK 12. I would have had to order a 16 to 18 for it to fit me.
Update
Since this review, they have contacted me and agreed to send larger size, and to expedite delivery. Very pleased with their response and their customer service. They did point out there is an accurate sizing chart on their website. Make sure you follow this as they aren’t normal UK sizing, but the measurements are accurate.

Thank you for sharing. We are very sorry that we were unable to meet your expectations. We would like to clarify that we have attached a size chart and a UK/US size comparison chart to each link. You can easily find the size you need by consulting these resources.
Regarding your question about returns, I have seen your email and have sent you the latest exchange plan. I look forward to your reply.
Exceptional service and excellent quality!
Exceptional service and excellent quality. Purchased a prom dress for my daughter but it was too small. Spoke with customer service - a very quick and prompt service who offered a second at a reduced price and got to keep the original. A few issues with sizing and stock but customer service remained very efficient, easy to access and very helpful. Second dress arrived and its absolutely perfect!! Would highly recommend, excellent prices, excellent quality and overall excellent service !!

Incorrect sizing and return post too expensive…
Purchased dress based on measurements with a tape measure. The size provided was not true to measurements listed online. Very difficult to arrange a return with costly process to change size ( postage and tracking from Australia to USA at my expense and I am not being refunded original postage) I am not sending as out of pocket over $50 for postage. Lengthy period for refund was reported. It is not an easy return process at all and items not as described on website. Suggest alternative online options for clothes purchases.

Hi Jenny Gordon,
Regarding the issue of clothing sizes. If the measurement of the clothes is accurate but does not match the size chart, and it is larger than the standard error, we are willing to offer you a refund or a replacement. Secondly, regarding the exchange of goods, we have newly introduced a policy that perfectly solves the problem of a long return period. You can provide me with your logistics tracking number. After we verify the issue, I will ask you to apply for a solution.
Kind regards,
Zapaka Customer Care Team
Don't plan on returning your dress.
This sight has been a nightmare. My dress was not what was pictured & after following their measurement guidelines it was huge. It came rolled in a fairly small plastic bag. Everytime I emailed them 7x they still won't give me the address to send it to. You have 7days & I started the day after I received it. They just keep sending 15% off offers. NEVER AGAIN FROM THIS COMPANY! DO not order from them! I've notified my bank to louge a claim.

Hi VICKI Austin,
First of all, we sincerely apologize for the unpleasant shopping experience. Regarding clothing sizes, we strictly adhere to the size chart on our website during production. If you feel there is a size issue, you can measure the garment yourself. If it differs from the size chart on our website, we can resend the garment or issue a refund. Secondly, regarding partial refunds, we are very sorry, but most customers agree to hold their orders and receive a partial refund, so we have been negotiating a solution from the customer's perspective. Finally, regarding order refunds, our website provides detailed instructions. Because our customers are from all over the world, it is impossible for us to establish return warehouses in every country. We have chosen the United States as the return address after considering various factors, and I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by the return. For refunds, we will refund the amount to your original payment method within a few business days of receiving the returned package. Finally, we will actively improve upon the issues you mentioned and strive to provide a better shopping experience for more customers.
Best Regards,
Zapaka Customer Care Team

Hi SusieBarrocas,
I'm very sorry for the poor shopping experience you've had. Regarding the return shipping fee issue. Generally, for American customers, the return shipping fee is around 15 dollars. We are not sure if it's due to a recent policy adjustment or some other specific situation. Could you please send us the return form so that we can further verify the problem?
