“15 days after placing order I am still waiting for delivery. I have since tried it on in shop and found It an exceptionally heavy material that feels quite spongy - like neopren. Needed for wedding in Italy so not suitable.
I will be returning it when it eventually arrives as refund requests have been ignored.”
We’re really sorry to hear about the delay and the issues you’ve encountered with the item. We understand how important this was for your wedding in Italy.
Please contact our Customer Care team with your order number and any tracking details so we can investigate, arrange a refund if applicable, and ensure this doesn’t happen again.
We’re really sorry the item didn’t meet your expectations and for any inconvenience caused.
Please contact our Customer Care team with your order number and a brief description of the issue. If possible, include any photos (e.g., product, packaging) to help us review and resolve quickly.
“Item was delayed, took 2 weeks to be delivered. When arrived the box was squashed and torn and the fascinator squashed and permanently creased. Not a good service at all. I will see what they will do but now not enough time for a replacement.”
We’re really sorry your order arrived late and in a damaged condition, and that you’re left with a creased fascinator. This isn’t the experience we want for you.
Please contact our Customer Care team with your order number and, if possible, photos of the damaged packaging and item so we can review what happened and help arrange a suitable solution.
We’re really sorry to hear the quality isn’t meeting your expectations. We’d like to review what happened and help ensure this doesn’t happen again.

“I understand why postage is charged on smaller orders, but it's pretty poor to charge for items to be returned and not even offer an exchange option.”
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, I completely understand your concerns around delivery and return charges, as well as the lack of an exchange option.
Delivery fees are applied as normal, and we do also charge a one-off return processing fee for orders. This fee is waived if an item is confirmed as faulty.
While we don’t currently offer an exchange service, we always aim to process refunds as quickly as possible so you can place a new order for your preferred item.
Kind regards,
Team Phase Eight
“I liked this dress but was extremely disappointed that it came with the security tag attached. I tried to sort it out with the chat box but it was very unhelpful”
Dear Julie,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m really sorry to hear that your dress arrived with the security tag still attached and the belt missing, I completely understand how disappointing this must have been, especially when you liked the item.
Having reviewed your order, I can see this has now been resolved, but I’m sorry for the frustration caused when you initially tried to get support. This certainly isn’t the experience we aim to provide. We hope you are satisfied with the solution offered. Please do email us again at customer services should you need any further assistance.
Warm regards,
Hi Vanessa,
