You need to contact us 3 days after you receive the package. Here is our e-mail address for after-sale: service@cicinia.com.

Please pay attention to the following details about after-sale problems:

 

  • FOR DRESSES IN STANDARD SIZES

Cicinia promises to give you a full refund including the shipping fee for any dresses with quality problems (Damaged, defective, or miss-shipped). And pictures to prove the quality problems are required. Please send them to our customer service.

While you will be responsible for paying shipping for return if there are no quality problems. The shipping is including the cost to ship back and any other shipping materials cost. And please choose the local post office as the delivery for safer transportation. After our customer service sends you the return address, you need to ship the item back within 7 days.

Cicinia will offer you a 90% refund if there is no quality problem but you are not satisfied with the product or you change your mind. We will take a 10% restocking fee, which will automatically be deducted from your refund. Please notice we still charge the shipping fee and rush fee(if there is ) under this circumstance even if your order is free shipping order.

Please make sure all items must be returned in original condition (unworn, unwashed, unaltered, and undamaged). We will have QC inspectors check the return items. We may fail to process the return if it doesn’t adhere to our return policy.

It will take 3 business days to process your return as we receive the package (More in peak seasons). And the refund will get back to you in 3-7 days. The time is different according to different bank accounts.

  • FOR CUSTOM DRESSES

Cicinia offers FREE custom service. We can produce dresses according to your measurements. Thus, you will receive a dress quite suitable for you and avoid other alternations. Although our tailors will produce your dresses carefully, there may be slight differences in the measurements because of the nature of the fabrics. And each dress with additional fabric in the seams to allow minor modifications. If your custom dress doesn't fit, please contact our customer service for help.

One more thing, please make sure that you have given us the right measurements. Or the return won’t be accepted. So please measure according to our measurements guide.

  • RETURN PROCESS

1. Contact us by e-mail: service@cicinia.com. This action should be within 7 days after receiving your package. Please send us pictures to state the reason for the return. We will reserve the right to refuse returns without prior approval from our customer service.

2. When you receive a reply from our service, it means your request for a return has been approved. Please return the dress to the address we provided ASAP (within 7 days). And make sure the product is in its original condition. The order number, your name, and email address are needed to be written with the package. Really important! Please send us the tracking number of the return package! We may fail to refund you without this information.

3. All of the returned dresses will be checked. We will refund you when we confirm that the product is in its original condition. It usually takes 3 business days for us to check the return after we receive it. You’ll get a refund message if we have given you a refund. And the refund will get back to you in 3-7 days according to different bank accounts. Cicinia will reserve the right not to process the refund if the item is returned in unacceptable condition.

 

EXCHANGE POLICY

Currently, Cicinia does not provide an exchange service. All of our dresses are made-to-order, so we do not have enough ready-to-ship dresses for exchange. The only way to exchange a dress is to return the first order, then take a new one. The return process can be read in our return policy.

 

ALTERNATION REIMBURSEMENTS

It’s normal to have slight differences during dress-making. Because all of our dresses are handmade. So, we hope for your understanding about that. If you need additional alterations or adjustments to get a fit dress, we can offer a limited alteration reimbursement for all of our dresses (including standard size dresses and custom size dresses).

You need to contact us first and send us the photo to show the problem. After getting our reply, you can alter the dress. Then please send us the invoice of your alternation via email to service@cicinia.com. We will partially refund you because this is the customer service we have promised you.

Here are our reimbursement limits:

Dress price at $99 or less - Reimbursement limit $35
Dress price at $100 - $150 - Reimbursement limit $50

CHANGE SOMETHING

You will get a confirmation email if we have received your order. You can add your requirements for change when you reply to us in 24 hours. But there will be an extra cost if the dress has been made. If you want to change something, for instance, you want to change the color after we have cut the fabric. Then the previous fabric will be wasted, so we will charge an extra cost to prepare a new one. So, when you need to change something, please tell us clearly by replying to the order confirmation email.
