Ordered my prom dress on the 24th of April and it came in under 19 days.
The deliver and customer service was spot on. They sent up to date information and a tracking code.
The dress came in the right colour, right size and right time!
My dress looks exactly like the picture if not better.
I will 100% be using this website again.
I ordered a prom dress on the 19th of april i was so worried as i read some of the reviews it turned up this morning well packed the right colour and style the only fault was one of the shoulders clipped together and other didnt i ordered custom made and it fitted her perfectly was really pleased:-)
Daughter orders bridesmaid dress. It was late wrong colour wrong size and poor quality. They won't refund as they wont provide return address so we cant return it in time. Never use them!
After ordering a simple 16 and it turning up a completely different red I asked to have a refund. After many messages toing and froing with them saying I was wrong about the colour they said I could have a refund but would have to pay 60% of the cost of the dress and pay for postage back to China! China is not stated when ordering and as it goes under a co.uk business name it does not imply it will be coming from China.
Know that I know I ve been had as it ll cost the same amount to return the dress to them as it did for the dress I ve realised I ll have to try and sell it myself. If all that wasn't bad enough I ve had a demand for a further £27 from customs saying I have to pay the import costs.
I am bewildered that this company are allowed to sell as they are unprofessional and completely immoral.
If anyone knows what I can do to stop others being conned please let me know!
They made me believe that my dress would be here before my prom day and it never came. The "customer support" representative I was emailing was HORRIBLE. Just simply do not order from this place whatever you do.
Firstly i would like to say, any good reviews on this place are fake and done by the company themselves.
Now here is my experience with the company.
A few months ago i ordered a dress and cancelled it within 24 hours, This seems simple enough, no money was taken so they simply just had to cancel. However, 3 days later the money was taken out of our account and after contacting the customer service multiple times, asking why and when can we have a refund, they said " i am sorry for this, but dress was shipped, and it is too late to cancel the order". (including broken english) This surprised us as it was 3 days after the order was taken and it was also supposed to be custom made to our specific measurements, so we began to question this excuse and the overall quality of the dress at all. Then we agreed that we will wait for the dress to come so we can then send it back and get the refund we deserved in the first place. However, once again it wasn't that simple, its now two months later and the dress hasn't arrived and all kind of response from the customer service has stopped. They ignore our emails and fail to respond with any valid excuse. I have proof of all of this saved on my emails yet they still fail to take responsibility. This is the most obnoxious and unprofessional website i have ever seen and i demand that they contact me ASAP. They have also gone as far to delete my account so that i cannot see the order status of the dress.
To conclude, on a website like this even something that seems so simple can turn into a disaster

I ordered a bridesmaid dress from this outfit via a UK website. However, I didn't like the dress when it arrived and wanted to return it. Please be aware that because the dresses are made to order, you have no right to return and request a refund unless the dress is faulty in some way. It is not like buying from a regular UK website, where you can return anything you don't like.
Ordered 2 prom dresses. One was a 2 piece, the other was a full length dress. These were not 'made to measure' dresses, just the usual size 8 dress size! The 2 piece was great, suited and fitted but unfortunately, the full length dress didn't suit my daughter or fit properly. Emailed the company asking for details of how to return the dress. They replied if you could take a photo of how it doesn't fit and we can alter it for you to make it fit. I replied again to say, unfortunately it just doesn't suit her and fit her figure, also mentioned that I ordered two dresses hoping that one would suit. They then replied saying that they do not refund for made dresses? How can you try on a dress from the website? If it had of been a 'made to measure' dress I would have totally understood, as no one is the same size! I am waiting to hear from them as I type. Watch this space.
Absolutely gorgeous! The detail and the stitching was perfect - very impressed as I was so nervous to purchase online and from so far away! I did the custom order - and they contacted me to make sure the measurements were correct (I am really short) which I thought was nice! You wont be disappointed in this dress!
Having read the reviews, i was sceptical as to wether or not we would get what we wanted.
We found the dress on their website and sent the measurements using the guide provided on the the website.
We confirmed the measurement 2 days later via e-mail and 3 weeks after that the dress arrived. I now have a very happy young lady, who is delighted with the dress.
Thank you Joansesdress.co.uk
Wow, got this beautiful evening dress from this store in a really cheap price. I came to this website hearing they are giving up to 75% discounts on their dresses. I already read some great reviews about this store. So I was confident about finding the dress I was looking for. Totally fell in love with the details on the dress. Since the store is giving 75% discounts, everything was very cheap. My little sister also got her evening dress from the store. The store has prom dresses in really affordable price. The shipping time is perfect. If I have to write a review about this web store then I want to give them 5 out of 5. Everything was done with a very professional approach. Sometimes I had to face troubles ordering a dress that was on sale. I noticed that even though the store was giving a discount on the dress, the delivery charges they asked were more than normal. So in a way it was a marketing strategy to ultimately make the customer pay the full price. Since this did not happened here I had a great time ordering the dress.
This website is a con - the dresses come from Hong Kong and turn out very different to how they are featured online. They do not use UK sizing charts and the dresses are badly made. They will not refund you if something goes wrong. Do not order from here.
I ordered a bridesmaid dress from them in what they said was a uk size 12 the top didn't event for a size 10 and the bottom
Was more like a size 18 the company would not let me return or get a refund and they said I ordered a uk 14 don't think they know what they are doing. Don't order unless you want to loose your money
Beautiful! My mind pictured all the horrific things you could possibly imagine, before the dress arrived.It is very pretty. I ordered it in ivory and it colour is amazing, its not powder like or yellowish, which was something I was afraid of. It is quite heavy and the material itself is not cheap at all. It actually resembles an Essence of Australia one that I liked, but it costs 140 Sterling pounds. I will probably buy a petticoat underneath it, its quite heavy to walk around with and I do not want to constantly move it back and forth with me. I know how risky it was ordering a wedding dress online. My only regret is the larger size, however other than that I would do it again. Overall, if you are a bride on a budget, and you are not a big fan of having to find your dress from the items on sale only, then try this out. Thank you so much Joannesdress.
I ordered a dress that I wanted custom made, I asked the company to forward me a measuring guide to ensure it was accurate. I measured the sleeves as informed. When the dress arrived and the sleeves were 3 inches too short they told me I had not supplied them with the measurements. I proved to them I had as it was in an email and they even replied to it. They now say it's my fault I measured it wrong although I followed their guide and they must have guessed if they supposingly didn't have the information. They will not refund or exchange we just keep on going in circles. The dress cost £120, it didn't fit properly anywhere, the colour wasn't right and it looked cheap. I am now trying to claim my money back, please do not use.
I orded a made to measure dress it came back and they clearly never used my measurements to make dress as it is so big. I have been emailing them everyday as i want my money back and they will not respond to any of my messages.
I got my dress a week ago.The dress is in great quality. Good fabrics and well made. I am very pleased with the dress.it is very comfortable to wear the dress. Shipment was very fast. Thanks for your guys. Very cute dress, for the price and color selection it is a very good value for a comfy summer dress. Oh my goodness, but I do love this dress!
Answer: Well I don't seem to be getting anywhere with this company either! They seem to be able to refuse returns on the grounds that their dresses are made to order! What a rip off!
Answer: It is impossible to get a refund from this company, after numerous emails going back and forth (from China) they would not address the issue. I was forced to go through Barclaycard and had to forward all my correspondence with the company to show I had done everything I could to get a refund. Barclaycard refunded me after 3 weeks. Great service Barclaycard
Answer: Same here! I ordered my dress about a month ago, prom is in two days and I still haven't gotten it. And when my mom and I asked them when it would get here they just told us to be patient and that it was shipping soon. That was last week.
Answer: Don't be tempted to order from this company. If you are unhappy with anything, they will not accept returns, as the dresses are made to order.
