DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! My daughter ordered a Matron of honor dress and the fit was horrible! No refund, only store credit. Total rip off.

I really don't like to speak so poorly of an Australian brand; but Shona Joy's returns policy is truly deplorable and absolutely ridiculous. I would assume for most people, purchasing a $300+ garment is quite a financial outlay, and most people would think that if the garment doesn't suit their body type, or fits poorly, or perhaps is even faulty- they are able to get a refund of their out of pocket expense. After all, it's what almost every other online and in-store retailer offers, right? Why think differently for a company that boasts about being australian made and great service & quality? That is unfortunately not the case with Shona Joy. I bought a dress for over $300 for a one off event, and when I tried the dress on at home once it arrived, I was a disappointed that it just made me look very frumpy and bulky. The material wasn't at all what the site said it would be and it was just... lacklustre in total. I thought it'd be easy to just pop it back for a refund and I'd keep searching for another gown for the event. When I called the Shona Joy customer service line, I was told I could only get a store credit, or exchange for another gown. When I said that's not really helpful to me, as this was the only gown that I knew would suit my height and body shape- I was told I could "gift" the dress to a friend instead, or choose another gown for an exchange. Uh, I'm sorry what? Are you kidding me? So now, I have the option of picking a different dress in a different colour which will just literally sit in my wardrobe because I won't ever wear it. Or getting a store credit for 12 months, to potentially just repeat the exact same experience I've just had. Please, to whomever is reading this; if you must purchase from Shona Joy, track down the exact item you are looking for in a PHYSICAL STORE and try it on first before buying. DO NOT purchase online. You may end up being out of pocket hundreds of dollars, and rather disappointed.

Would give zero stars if I could. Their customer service is appalling and unethical. So much of my time wasted, when it was their product which was FAULTY. Never again will purchase anything Shona Joy. Disgraceful.

Totally agree with the returns policy review below! How on earth can you be an online store and only accept returns if faulty?! Both in NZ and the UK it is illegal to not have a fair returns policy

Returns policy is ridiculous, they also changed their policy between date of order and goods being delivered, they simply will not give you your money back, only a credit note, avoid

I don't even want to give a 1 star!! Crazy they don't refund on full priced items!! Brand new dress $300 tried on & didn't suit me all I can get is a credit note!! It took 3 days for their response. I will never purchase from them again. What online store DOESN'T REFUND FULL PRICE?

Do not order from this company. Your order will not arrive & no refund. Honestly the worst retailer I’ve ever dealt with.

I'm really surprised to see the reviews regarding poor customer service. I have had to contact the customer service team twice - both due to my own mistakes - and they have responded within the hour, rectifying my mistakes and ensuring timely postage. Both times I have dealt with Aleksandra who has been absolutely wonderful. The quality of the garments is second to none, hence my constant repurchasing!

I’m extremely disappointed with the service I received from Shona Joy. I placed my order beginning of June (1.5 month ago) and have yet to receive my order. I’ve contacted Shona Joy multiple times over the past three weeks and haven’t received a follow up. I placed this order through their “After Pay” option. Thankfully after pay has reached out and they received a response within a day from Shona Joy and stated that they are not liable for international orders and will not be cancelling my order nor will be issuing a refund.

Quality of clothes is not an issue but not impressed with their returns policy. Would not shop there again as they do not allow returns for cash back - only credit. For a company that sells a fairly expensive range, to buy online and not have the security of being able to return items, this is appauling

Company does not refund. It’s against international online shopping laws. They just offer a store credit even if you do not fit in the item and there is no bigger size available. Not customer friendly. I will never shop this brand again.

Overall the service I received from this company was AVERAGE. It took two and a half months for the dress to arrive , only to find that the wrong dress had been sent. The items on this website don't come cheap at all and so one would expect a great quality dress. On receiving the dress, despite it being the wrong dress, I could still see that the quality of all the dresses would be subpar. Personally don't think the dresses look to be worth the dresses are priced at. The team was willing to accept the return of the dress however the refund process was tedious and took a really long time. Overall, a time consuming and frustrating process
