FAQ

About Pre-order

If a product is listed as Pre-order or there is production time for the product, then it is a made-to-order/custom made item, which means it will take some time to produce the product. The production time will be listed on that product page. Please note that production time will not be included in the shipping time. So the time span for the customers to receive a Pre-order product is production time plus shipping time.

About Customized and Handmade Products

For some handmade / customized products, it will take extra days to produce and ship. (Please refer to specific products' pages for information on production time.)

Please note that it may take even longer for us to produce the custom made plus size products (bust larger than 38 inches/ 98 cm). The shape of the customized plus size garments may change which might not look identical from the original items.


About Color difference:

Our product pictures strive to showcase the true color of the product, but due to the different imaging materials of your device and the problem of light intensity during indoor and outdoor shooting, slight color difference is sometimes inevitable. The actual color of products is subject to the actual product. This is sometimes unavoidable in online shopping, but it cannot be regarded as a product quality problem.


About sizing

All the sizes are measured manually, so there might be a small degree of human error ( 1 inch/ 2-3cm). If you are not sure about your size, we recommend you to make a measurement before making any purchase. Please note that our sizes are measured manually, so it can be normal that there is one to two inches of error. If your size is in between two sizes, for example, between S and M, we recommend you to choose a size up. We are always here to help you with choosing sizes, so please don't hesitate to contact us by email (retrofairycontact@gmail.com) or DM us @retro.fairy on Instragram. 

About stuck zipper

Reach for a bar of soap. Rub the stuff over the teeth of the zipper, and gently tug to make it give way. If that doesn't work, move onto other types of lubricant, like pencil lead, glass cleaner, or petroleum jelly.

 

About return and exchange:

If you would like to return or exchange products because the dresses do not fit, the shipping cost for sending back the products is at customer's expense. Therefore it is important to obtain the correct measurements before placing an order. Please see full Return and Exchange policy here

Aspirational clothing!

I am Japanese.
I live in Japan, so I had a lot of fun until the clothes arrived!
These clothes made my dream come true.
The silhouette is very cool and very nice!

my new favorite outfit

so beautiful, and came with a scrunchie and matching pearl hair clip!! its a bit sheer, but you can wear it with no bra + light colored underwear and be just fine. I ordered a small and the bust is a little tight (the fabric opens up a bit on the top button). i only have a 32 inch bust, but apparently this was made for board flat women lol. however, im okay with it, because the lace at the top covers where the fabric opens. the skirt has a sinched waist and theres a separate ribbon that comes with it that ties around to cover it. i will have to pin it in place. but this set is to die for! im a writer and this is actually the dress i made my main character wear in the first chapter. for this reason i felt that i had to have it! i dont regret my decision, im very satisfied. thank you :-)

Beautiful Dress

I love this dress so much! I've been collecting Gunne Sax dresses/skirts for a while now and I've been looking for a long sleeve one. This one was reasonably priced and I took a chance on it. I am very impressed with the quality.. so much so that I bought another reproduction dress! I ordered larger than I normally wear (XL.. I'm usually a M) because I recently had a baby and it fits like a dream! Very happy with my purchase and I can't wait for my next dress to come in!!

Practically perfect in almost every way

I absolutely love it! It did come out looking a little more periwinkle than icy blue but I'm not mad at that color. I opted for custom sizing and it fits me absolutely perfectly.

I am in love.

Amazing dress

I used this dress for my sweet sixteen and was surprised by the quality and attention to detail. The dress is super comfy too. Definitely going to buy more from this business!!
