Light In The Box Rocks
October 4, 2023

Excellent company, in my opinion. LITB provides gorgeous, artistic and (in most cases) well-made clothing at super affordable prices. When they don't get it right, their excellent customer service representatives are quick to make corrections, provide exchanges and/or refunds. Clothing the world in beautiful pieces seems to be their ultimate mission. Can't recommend this company enough!

I have purchased several items from this store, but as a person of 'size' I have difficulty finding tops that are long enough (32") with at least 3/4 sleeves. It is frustrating to find a beautiful top and see it is not in my size.

Stylish
October 4, 2023

I like the designs on most the guys clothing. I've ordered a few shirts from Light in the Box and have been satisfied but the sizes can be a little tricky. I always order the next size larger due to they tend to fit smaller then my regular size.

I AM VERY DISSAPOINTED WITH THIS SITE
October 2, 2023

I would not recommend anyone to buy here. I have bought a jacket, the jacket was not nearly made from the material in the photos. In the photos, the jacket was very cool. The real thing is made of very thin polyester. Now I want to return it, and they say the return costs 60 eur. The cost of the jacket is 36 eur. So this is a trap, a real scam.
The site was in Germán, I thought this was a Germán company.
I received the package 6 days ago, there is still time to return it, but I don't know how/
If the company can get in touch with me NOW, I would me glad.
They know my email.

Very disappointed.

Smells like rotting animal
October 1, 2023

My mother of the bride dress arrived after 4 weeks of waiting and aside from the measurements not being accurate -the dress smells horrible. I can't imagine what caused this but o little rally have it in a bag in my garage waiting on a resolution before I dispute. There is no excuse for this odor and my money should be refunded in full!

UPDATE: I did receive a response and refund less shipping. I'm giving them another chance and have ordered another dress. Hopefully, this one will hit the mark.

Clothing I received
September 30, 2023

One piece was lovely and I kept. The second piece, the color was not what I wanted. Not super easy to return, but in the end, customer service did take my return.

TOTAL RIP-OFF!
September 29, 2023

The so-called coat (duster) I ordered (in two sizes) was not as depicted. It was a cheap fabric that was ridiculously large. Going on to the Website for return info, you had to hit five stars & would be refunded 30% to 50% if you spent more than $100. My purchase was $80. Then after following every detail for a full refund, USPS (the only mode of accepted return) was charging $210. I'm keeping these to wear as house robes or matching Halloween costumes. BUYER BEWARE!

Love the fabric
September 29, 2023

I love the fabric. The dark pink fit perfectly. The light pink was way too small. I loved the material so much I used that to make a stuffed animal.
