Wedding gown

I can't say enough good things about District 5! I was shopping for a wedding gown in my budget range online, and District 5 appeared almost too wonderful to be true. I did my homework, read all the reviews, and heard nothing but good things about the boutique. I was anxious because it was my wedding gown and I reside in Sydney, but Theresa put my mind at ease with her prompt responses. My dress stated that it would take 16 weeks to ship, however I believe it was ready a week or two before, and once shipped, it arrived in 4 days! I'm in love with my gown and couldn't be happier.

I bought a gown

I recently made the mistake of shopping with this designer dress company and it was a disaster. I paid $1000 for a dress, but they sent me the wrong one and refused to issue a refund within their stated 10-day return policy when I returned it. To make matters worse, they charged my credit card for a product I did not authorize. When I contacted the company to try to resolve the issue, they were unresponsive and uncooperative.

I was extremely disappointed with the level of customer service I received from this company. They showed no regard for their customers and were completely unwilling to make things right when they made a mistake. I would strongly advise against shopping with this company. There are much better options out there that will treat you with respect and integrity

Eveninggowns

The poorest customer experience I have had in more than 10 years of purchising evening and formal attire. My experience with this business has been completely disastrous. District 5 Boutique took payments for several orders over a year ago, and then proceeded to cancel the invoices without notice, keeping both the money and the orders.

I have reached to their customer service for months, to be first ignored and now constantly told about the issue being eternally 'forwarded to the higher management', without ever getting an actual response nor a solution.

Please beware of this dishonest seller; avoid it at all costs! It appears to be a scam.

EveningDress

Buyer Beware!!
I purchased a dress from them. When it came I took one look and realized it was too small. I didn’t even try it on. I returned it timely in its original packaging.
They contacted me yesterday stating they cannot issue my refund because the dress had a hole and was cut. They even had the audacity to send a picture of a totally different dress showing damage. I ordered a pink dress and the one they showed was a cream dress of a totally different material.
They do have beautiful dress but they are not honest.
I sent them a picture of the dress I actually ordered and so far no response. I now have to go through my bank and dispute this issue.
Please be very careful!!

Gown

Worst place ever. They take your money for items they do not have and cannot get. I placed an order for a dress for my daughter’s wedding. They never received a confirmation from manufacturer they could get the dress. Refused to give me my money back, despite not being able to fulfill the order. Items sent for credit, took over a month to obtain. DO NOT buy anything here, it is a scam.

Awful experience multiple times. I have tried to order from this store multiple times. Twice, I was told several weeks after I placed my order that they cannot produce the dress. Then they refuse to refund the money even though they are the ones cancelling the order. Once, I placed an order and was told it can be done in a specific color and then was told 5 weeks later (!) That it cannot be. They have terrible communication, don't respond in a timely manner, and then steal your money by cancelling your order and refusing to refund it.
