Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 262 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Customers frequently received products that were not as advertised, citing poor quality, cheap materials, and incorrect colors or designs, often with sizing much smaller than expected. Many also experienced long delays in receiving orders, with items often shipping from China despite claims of UK origin. Reviewers consistently faced difficulties with the return policy and obtaining refunds, as the company often refused full refunds, failed to provide return addresses, and instead offered partial refunds (typically 15-50%) to keep unsatisfactory items. Additionally, many reported poor communication, with emails going unanswered or bouncing back, making resolution challenging.

Chinese scam

Very late, delivered from China unlike the implication that it was of British manufacturer, adequate quality not high class tailoring as stated. The size stated on the label has absolutely no connection to reality. It said 5X and was at most XL. There is no company of this name at Companies House, and the couple who supposed own this company do not exist as directors.

SCAM!!! AVOID PURCHASING

Like all the other reviews, i have today received the 'Marly' winter coat - which looked great on the advert. Its cheap fabric, thats going to literally shred after one wear, and looks flammable. i too was concerned when i saw that the tracking was from China, so took ages to arrive. 'Emily' reassured me all will be ok and that if im unhappy once received, she would send me a straightforward returns process. I have just emailed 'Her' - Lets see - based on all the other reviews, i feel like i will be ghosted. I cant believe companies get away with this, and using an image of a lovely couple with kind faces - can't believe i fell for this.

Do not buy from these people

Do not buy from these people, the quality of the military coat I ordered was so poor and thin I assumes it was a shirt in the parcel, it has a cheap zip which barely works. They pretend to be from the UK but it’s Chinese junk and takes an age to arrive. Also, customer service seems to be non existent.

I am extremely disappointed with my purchase of the Hazel Elegant Longline Coat. What arrived looks nothing like the images advertised — the fabric is cheap, flimsy, and of shockingly poor quality. It feels like a completely different product from what was shown online.

This is false advertising at its worst, and I feel deceived as a customer. I’ve already contacted the company demanding an immediate refund and return. If you value quality or honesty, avoid this brand — the product I received is nowhere near worth the price or the promise.

Absolutely shocking item has arrived

Absolutely shocking item has arrived. Nothing at all like the image on their website. Poor quality, thinner than thin, shiny, wrong colour, At the time I ordered I couldn't find any feedback negative or otherwise on this company; I should have known. The company pretends to be based in Oxford so I figured that would be ok. It's a complete lie its a company in China, they ship from China. SCAM company. Currently trying to claim the money back via credit card chargeback.

Chinese knock-offs

Unfortunately I cannot rate 0.

First the goods took a long time to deliver.
Second they were later than communicated
Third, the quality is worse than awful.

Ordered a polo shirt from what I thought was a reputable Company in Oxford

Ordered a polo shirt from what I thought was a store in Oxford with Royal Mail delivery, advertised as there anniversary sale reduced from £99.95 to £39.95
It was delivered by Yodel 2 weeks later they kept saying it’s on its way after my enquiries,
Looks to have come from China via Netherlands very poor quality awful fit, not worth a £10 note, tried to find out UK return address i/e shops address in Oxford looks to be non existent !!
Bank is now dealing with it which I strongly advise anyone that’s not happy to do the same, or complain to trading standards,
This looks to be a completely scam company and should not be allowed to falsely advertise,
MY ADVICE AVOID !!

East Asian scammers purporting to be a UK family business! Items finally arrived after long delay….cheap material, poorly made, random sizing!
Asked fro return them and quoted £10/12 for postage on each item! They then came back and said keep the items and we’ll refund you 25% !!
Replied saying 50%….heard nothing so accepted 25% & learned a lesson.
Don’t touch these people!

Avoid..

Avoid... company is selling cheap tat for a lot of money. Incorrectly sized, plastic crap. Don't reply to emails for a refund. Fraudsters! That's £50 I'll never get back. But I do have a pair of size 5 (states 7) crap cheap boots ...! Photos advertised do not match product. Save your money and go to Primark, as quality is better and far far cheaper.

SCAM

I wish I'd checked Trust Pilot before I ordered, as others, I too have received a very expensive, bad quality, summer jacket - not the gorgeous winter one I was expecting. This is a total scam, with an AI generated image of a trustworthy couple outside an oxford shop that no doubt doesn't exist. I will be trying to report this website. AVOID.

Do not shop on this site

Item I ordered never arrived - e-mailed company who said their tracking showed item had been delivered but they ‘would look into it’.
Complete scam - if you press on the ‘contact us’ button on their site it comes up with a non-existent e-mail address! Avoid at all costs.

Thank you so much for your patience while we’ve been discussing your order. I completely understand how important it is that you feel comfortable with the outcome, and I truly appreciate the opportunity to find the best resolution together.

As a special gesture, I’d like to offer you a 50% refund on your order while still allowing you to keep the item. This means you’ll be able to enjoy your purchase at half the original price — without the hassle of arranging a return, covering shipping fees, or waiting the usual 2–3 weeks that refunds can take when items are sent back for inspection.

Many of our customers in similar situations have chosen this option and found it to be the easiest and most positive solution. It saves time, avoids unnecessary costs, and still leaves you with a product to use and enjoy at a much fairer value.

I hope this feels like a good resolution for you too. If you’re happy for me to proceed, I’ll take care of everything right away and ensure the refund is processed promptly back to your original payment method.

declined asked for refund same as before except
As a gesture of goodwill, I would like to offer you a 65% refund on your order while allowing you to keep the item. This means you can enjoy your purchase at half the original price—without the hassle of arranging a return, covering shipping fees. Please note that returns to our Netherlands facility usually range between £10–£20 depending on location and can take up to 2 weeks for transit, inspection, and refund processing.

as of today still no reply I think I will go to Barclaycard

Ordered a military style jacket

Ordered a military style jacket, item arrived and it was not as advertised. I received a garment no thicker than a shirt, poor quality. Emailed straight away requesting a full refund, received a reply stating they will me a 25% refund and I can keep the garment. I emailed back demanding a full refund and I do not want the garment, haven't heard from since!! I have subsequently sent a further 4 emails and still no reply. Do not buy anything from this outlet!!

SCAM company. Don’t touch…

Ordered a navy top. Shape all very square so decided to send back. As per previous reviews; customer service is from “Emily” which is an AI generated reply. Said I didn’t want to keep my item and pay for another one “postage only”. Total scam. This company need shutting down and kicking off Facebook advertising.
