No one expect to spend 600.00 on a dress that has a return window of 5 days. Some people who are at the Mother of the Bride stage of life are retired and therefore travel with their free time. If the Couture Candy dress arrives when you’re out of town you are stuck with it (unless you want to pay a hefty restocking fee in addition to return shipping.). Do yourself a favor and buy dresses at saks, Bloomingdale’s or Macys for the same price point with much, MUCH better customer service and return policies. Would absolutely NOT recommend Couture Candy. In addition, the dress I purchased is the same size and style and designer as another dress I purchased but it didn’t fit. It felt as if it had been altered.
