Overall good experience from the US!

The shipping process was definitely a little clunky thanks to the US tariffs nonsense, but the customer support team was incredibly helpful with both inquiries I had. I also LOVE what I ordered! True to size, super unique and looks exactly as pictured :)

AVOID

In general everything went súper smith to buy the garments and the shipping was faster except that I made to ship to my mother in law address in holland so my husband found bring it.

Let’s talk about the quality: HORRIBLE. Worst than she in. I ordered a bralette and I used for mine day and now is two size bigger. Not adjustments for the hours , it just a disaster for €25. Pants: omg such a bad quality and ungraceful fit. It remind me to forever 21 like 15 years ago. The other blouse , transparent, sleeveless, cheap feeling, bad finish, no structure. Please AVOID TO BUY. This store should
Be banned from fake advertise. Made in Greece? I am sure make in china have better finish and work. I wanted to send it back and they said I am out my window return? I recorded the 19. And try to send it back today and they said 14 days to return and is not allowing me to. SCAM

Issues with the refund

Never received my parcel, as the courier had an issue and it was returned. After contacting the customer service they reassured me that they will proceed with a refund as soon as the parcel gets back. It took 2 months of emails that most times were not replied and after making a dispute to my bank they got back with the refund.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS WEBSITE!

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS WEBSITE!

I bought two dresses and a top from this website, and at no point in the buying process was I told the clothes were coming from the EU, and that I was be liable for an import charge, which was absolutely extortionate, and would be ruinous for some. This is hidden in another section of the website, alongside the notice that they don’t accept returns outside of the EU. So this company has cost me nearly 500£ for clothes that might not fit. You are told that shipping is free, which again tricks you into a false sense of security. It has been incredibly stressful trying to manage this situation. It is a web shop, and this information NEEDS to be made available at all stages of the buying process.

The fact the website yells as soon as you land on the site, DESIGNED IN LONDON, MADE IN GREECE, is again another trick to make you feel like there will be no issue with having clothes sent to the UK. The customer service is severe, and at this point it basically feels like a scam.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS WEBSITE! It’s a glorified insta shop who tricks its customers to get international orders. I cannot see how this way of working is helpful for them, looking at the other reviews here. Seriously avoid!

We would like to clarify several factual inaccuracies in this review.

All of the points raised — including our location, shipping origin, customs charges for UK orders, and return eligibility — are clearly stated in our Shipping and Returns policies, which are publicly available on our website prior to purchase.

ESTHÉ is clearly identified as based in Greece, including on our website and Instagram profile. We do not state that we are based in or ship from the United Kingdom. Any assumption to the contrary is incorrect.

Additionally, when the United Kingdom is selected as the delivery country, a clear notice is displayed at checkout informing customers that import VAT, duties, or clearance fees may apply. These charges are imposed by UK authorities and are not controlled or collected by us.

Our Returns Policy also specifies that returns are currently accepted only from within the European Union due to customs and import restrictions.

The concerns raised in this review do not stem from missing or hidden information, but from terms that were available and communicated before checkout. While we regret that this experience was frustrating, the policies applied were transparent and followed as stated.

Disappointed

Utterly shocking customer service. Do not buy from them as the shipping fees are extortionate and they give you no information about this until it’s too late! And then claim that they can’t refund you.

Horrified.

The statements in this review are factually incorrect.

All information regarding shipping origin, international orders, and potential import charges is clearly disclosed on our website and during checkout. When the United Kingdom is selected as the delivery country, a clear warning is displayed before payment informing customers that import VAT, duties, or clearance fees may apply.

These charges are not shipping fees and are not set or collected by us. They are imposed by UK customs authorities and handled by the carrier, as is standard for shipments entering the UK from the European Union.

This information is not provided “too late,” nor is it hidden. It is available prior to purchase and must be acknowledged before completing checkout. The policies applied in this case were transparent and followed exactly as stated.

Avoid

Avoid. If shipping to the uk you will get heavy fees - I even split my order in to two, to avoid this, and Esthe sent the orders together - to save themselves the delivery cost costing me nearly £100 more on top of what I paid for what turned out to be not great quality garments. Will NEVER shop with them again.

Terrible return process

I ordered two garments, but the quality did not meet my expectations. I returned them following the instructions on the website (though the process was quite difficult). Unfortunately, it took 5 weeks for them to process the return. I won’t be ordering again.

We would like to clarify the timeline of this return, as the information stated in this review is not accurate.

The returned items were received at our warehouse on 10 November, and the refund was processed on 14 November, which is within 4 calendar days of receipt. This is well within the 7–10 business days refund timeframe stated in our Returns Policy.

The time it takes for a return parcel to reach us depends on the shipping method and carrier chosen by the customer and is not something we can control or track prior to delivery. Refund processing begins only once the return has been received and inspected.

Regarding product quality, the return request cited “items not as expected” and a sizing issue, without additional details indicating a quality defect.

While we regret that the overall experience did not meet expectations, the return and refund were handled promptly and in accordance with our stated policy.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND BUYING FROM THE US

I am quite frustrated I didn't read reviews prior to purchasing... The import costs were not clear on the website and when I reached out to ask about this (~29% of the cost I spent on the actual clothes), they were not as responsive asI would have liked them to be. Reading the other reviews, it seems like their customer service is not ideal and I really wish people read this to just know that they will have to pay very high import fees if ordering from the US and their CS team might not be as responsive as you would imagine given the costs of the garments and the supposed high quality. On top of this, they said they would not take returns so the only option I had was to pay the fees or not get the package delivered.... :( :( :(

We would like to clarify the facts surrounding this review.

ESTHÉ ships internationally from Greece, and information regarding international shipping, customs duties, and import taxes is clearly outlined on our website under our Shipping Information and Customs policies. Following regulatory changes effective August 29, 2025, shipments entering the United States may be subject to import duties, VAT, or clearance fees regardless of order value. These charges are imposed by U.S. authorities and are not set, controlled, or collected by us.

This information was not hidden and was also explained directly via email once the customer contacted us. Our customer care team responded multiple times, reviewed the carrier’s notices, requested documentation where applicable, and clearly explained the situation and available options.

The charges referenced in this review were not additional shipping fees, but customs and import fees determined by U.S. regulations and handled by the carrier. Unfortunately, these fees cannot be waived, refunded, or compensated by us.

While we understand that unexpected import charges can be frustrating, the policies applied in this case were transparent, communicated in advance, and enforced in accordance with current international regulations.

No customer service

Update
Received a beautiful garment that luckily fits.
This Company has absolutely no willingness to communicate with their customers nor are they shipping anything near the time they Said it would be dispatched. So if buying for an event, ensure to purchase a few weeks prior or you might miss it.
And the so called customer service people are not replying no matter how many channels you try to reach them through.

Thank you for your feedback and for the update.

We’re glad to hear that you received and enjoyed the garment. Regarding the dispatch timing, your order was placed on 13 August and shipped on 20 August. During that specific period, we experienced exceptionally high demand, which led to delays affecting a small number of orders.

As stated in our Shipping Policy, dispatch and delivery times are estimates and may vary due to factors such as order volume, peak demand periods, or operational constraints. While the vast majority of our orders are dispatched within the stated timeframe, occasional delays can occur, particularly during high-demand periods.

Regarding communication, our customer care team responds through multiple channels, and we regret if our response time during that peak period did not meet expectations. We are continuously working to improve capacity and response times during busy seasons.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, as it helps us improve.

Trust the negative 50%

If you're reading this and are on the fence about whether to order from Esthe, consider this your sign to NOT order. I saw that the reviews were split 50/50, and I hoped I would be one of the happy customers. I deeply regret my choice.

Here is a list of issues I encountered and reasons to think twice before ordering from this company:

* Misleading Sustainability Claims & Return Hassles: It is clear their investment is in newsletter and social media marketing. Once you sign up, you are bombarded with emails, offering you also discount codes for the things in your shopping card (there was definitely some technology investment there). On the other hand, the customer support for returns is completely unresponsive. I can confirm my return was delivered more than one and a half week ago, and despite two emails to them, I have received no update or refund.
* Inconsistent Shipping Policies: Shipping to you is fast (two days), but returning an item is a completely different story. You are responsible for organizing and paying for the return yourself, which cost me nearly 24€. This feels inconsistent, as even smaller businesses can facilitate returns for customers by arranging shipping and reducing costs.
* Flawed Eco-Friendly Packaging: The company boasts about using recycled plastic for their shipping bags. However, shipping carriers like DHL refused to accept the parcel in this material, forcing me to buy and use a new box. This completely defeats the purpose of their supposed environmental efforts.
* Overpriced and Underwhelming Quality: The clothing is overpriced for what you get. The quality of the fabric and construction does not justify the price.
* Poor Sizing for Tall People: As a tall person, I found that the proportions of the clothing were completely off and did not work for my height.
Overall, a company that claims to be sustainable and environmentally conscious should have a more holistic approach to its business strategy, especially concerning the return process (shipping and packaging) for an e-commerce brand. It feels that all their investment lies in selling the product, but to keep people purchasing, there should be more investment in things that increase costumer satisfaction and the purchasing experience.

I am very unhappy and disappointed with my experience at ESTHE. Be smart, listen to the negative reviews, and DO NOT ORDER THERE!

Absolutely beautiful and truly unique…

Absolutely beautiful and truly unique clothes. Fast delivery. Among 4 items I ordered a green/blue top which is now my absolute favorite, and get complimented on it everywhere I go. I had to return 2 items and the return process was fairly smooth, as long as you read the instructions properly. A bit expensive (25 €) to make a return with UPS, but I don’t mind when I know I’ve supported a small European based company, that actually cares about recycling and the environment.

Super-fast delivery, wonderful design, but not true to size!

Ordered a skirt - it is stunning! I am usually size M, but ordered size L so the skirt would have more length. The design is beautiful and the delivery came quickly. However, I can not even close it in the waist! It is just SO SMALL! My waistline is completely normal so there is a huge discrepancy in the measurements of this skirt. Even XXL would not be fitting me around the waist and after reading reviews here of the return process, I am also hesitant to return it. Now stuck with a great looking skirt that fits perfectly everywhere else, except around the waist. Bummer!

The return process was swift and seamless. I returned some items that didn’t fit.I received clear instructions and the reimbursement to my account was processed immediately upon receipt of the return. Returns are not free and the customer needs to pay for them, but this is standard for many smaller companies which don’t have the means of the big online sale platforms. ESTHE is a good local company, supports EU manufacturing employing local seamstresses and sells cool clothing.

This company engages in fraudulent practices.

Order delivery is fast, but the service really bad.
I’m okay with paying return/shipping costs but the return address isn’t correct, or the company says it’s the fault of the carrier.

Instead of looking for a solution, I receive a standard response that makes no real effort to resolve the issue. This feels like fraud on your part. Despite multiple emails and messages via social media, no proper solution has been offered. Never for me an order here again. Be warned.

The claim made in this review is incorrect and requires clarification.

The return address provided was our official warehouse address, which is used daily by multiple carriers without issue. The address supplied was complete and accurate. Any statement that the address “does not exist” originated from the carrier used for the return and does not reflect reality.

As clearly stated in our Returns Policy and communicated repeatedly via email, return shipments are arranged by the customer, and we are unable to track or investigate parcels until they physically arrive at our warehouse. In this case, the parcel was returned by the carrier before delivery and never reached our premises.

This situation resulted from a carrier-side delivery failure, not from an incorrect address or fraudulent practice. All return instructions, responsibilities, and limitations were communicated clearly and in advance and applied exactly as stated.

We understand that this experience was frustrating; however, accusations of fraud are unfounded and inaccurate.

Absolutely dreadful! Avoid at all costs! Jumper is shapeless and extremely poor quality. Won't accept returns from the UK and huge import taxes charged. I've wasted nearly £200 on an item that's unwearable. Esthe shouted be ashamed

We would like to clarify the facts surrounding this review.

ESTHÉ operates from within the European Union, and all orders shipped to the United Kingdom are subject to UK VAT and, depending on the order value, customs charges in accordance with post-Brexit regulations. These charges are imposed by UK authorities and collected by the carrier, not by us. This information is clearly outlined on our website and was also explained directly via email.

Regarding the comments on product quality, no manufacturing or quality defect was reported or documented in the customer’s email correspondence. Product fit and perception of quality are subjective and may vary depending on personal preference and body type. For this reason, detailed product descriptions, materials, and sizing information are provided prior to purchase.

Our returns policy states that we currently accept returns only from within the European Union due to customs and import restrictions. This policy was communicated clearly and applied as stated.

While we regret that this purchase did not meet expectations, the policies applied in this case were transparent and followed exactly as outlined.
