Can I get a refund from Girls Don't Dress For Boys?

Cash refunds aren't clearly offered because items are **custom, made-to-order**. The site's returns process is framed as an **exchange** for size misfit within **28 days**, provided the item is unworn, unwashed, unsoiled and has all tags attached. If you want your money back rather than a swap, especially for a faulty or not-as-described item, put the request in writing and cite your regional consumer rights. If you paid by card and get no response, a chargeback via your bank is a fallback.

Is there a cancellation fee?

No cancellation fee is published anywhere on the site. However, because garments are made-to-order, the practical "cost" of cancelling late is that the brand may decline once production has started. There's also no restocking fee mentioned, but return shipping for exchanges is your responsibility. Always confirm in writing before shipping anything back.

Something I purchased is now in sale. Can I receive a price adjustment?

No. The FAQ states that **due to overall high demand and availability issues, they do not currently allow price adjustments**. If your item is still within the 28-day window and unworn with tags, one workaround is to return it and re-purchase at the sale price, but weigh that against non-refundable return shipping. Otherwise the original price stands.

Will I lose anything if I cancel my order?

There's no account subscription or stored benefit to lose, this is a one-off garment purchase. If you cancel before dispatch and get a refund, you simply won't receive the item. Any promo code (e.g. the NEW10 first-order 10% off) would need to be re-applied on a future order. Keep your order confirmation until any refund or exchange is fully resolved.

What if Girls Don't Dress For Boys ignores my cancellation or refund request?

Small made-to-order brands can be slow, reviews of similar sellers describe orders dispatched despite cancellation requests. Send a clear, dated written request via the Contact page and any email you have, and keep copies. If there's no resolution and you paid by credit/debit card or PayPal, open a **chargeback/dispute** with your provider citing non-delivery or item-not-as-described. Screenshots of the order, your requests, and the policy strengthen your case.

The short answer

GDDB frames returns as exchanges: items must have all tags/labels attached, be unworn, unwashed and unsoiled, and be returned within 28 days. Once received, they aim to process the request within 2-3 working days and ship the exchange item. Because pieces are made-to-order, the FAQ emphasises exchange for size misfit rather than cash refunds, and there are no price adjustments if an item later goes on sale. If you want a monetary refund rather than a swap, you'll likely need to raise it directly and, if paid by card, consider a chargeback.

28-day cancellation window

How long does a Girls Don't Dress for Boys refund take?

Most merchants agree to a straightforward refund within 1 to 3 working days of a well-written email request. Once agreed, the money itself takes another 3 to 5 working days to land, that part is card-network processing and no merchant can skip it. If nothing has arrived 10 working days after a written “refund approved”, reply on the same thread asking for the ARN (acquirer reference number), which your bank can trace.

Note Girls Don't Dress for Boys’s own policy works on a 28-day window, ask inside it and the request is routine; outside it you’re relying on goodwill or statutory rights.
