Can I change or cancel my order?

Sizing and fit
How do I find my size?
Each product page shows its sizes and, where the listing gives them, the matching UK sizes, for example S (UK 8), and a size chart in centimetres where we have one for that style. A product without a chart says so under its sizes. The fit note under the sizes on each product page says how that piece fits. Our Size guide page explains how to measure.
Are the measurements body or garment measurements?
It depends on the product. Each size chart's note says which when the listing states it, and says so when it does not. Body measurements: choose the size that matches you. Garment measurements: compare them with a similar piece you already own. Boots list foot length.
What sizes do your boots and heels come in?
UK sizes, shown in the size selector on each product page, with half sizes where the style comes in them.
What are your products made of?
Each product page lists the fabric where the listing states it, and the care, in the Fabric & Fit section.
Returns and refunds
Can I return an item?
Yes, within 30 days of delivery. Change-of-mind items must be unworn with tags attached, and return postage to our returns warehouse in Asia is at your cost; we email you its address once your return is approved. Faulty, damaged or incorrect items are always covered, and we pay the return. See our Return and refund policy.
How long do refunds take?
Within 10 business days after we approve your refund, to your original payment method. For a returned item, we approve the refund once we have received and checked it.
Can I exchange an item?
Return the item you have and, once the return is accepted, place a new order for the size or colour you want.
