Conclusion

Reviews show a clear pattern of strong, personalised in‑store service and examples where customer care teams resolved delivery or exchange issues promptly. At the same time there are repeated complaints about slow refund processing, inconsistent sizing and some poorer fabric quality. If you value personal styling and in‑store help, several reviewers recommend visiting a branch; if buying online, check return and refund policies and keep proof of return. For fit‑sensitive purchases consider trying items in store or ordering with enough time to manage returns.
