PRODUCTS AND SIZE GUIDE


  • What is the composition of the garment?

    Each product sheet contains a brief description of the composition of the garment.

  • How can I wash the garment?

    To ensure that the items you buy last a long time and retain their beauty, always see the label on your garment and contact us for more details.

  • How do I choose my size?

    To help you choose your size correctly, refer to the Product Sheet of the item you want: you will see the size on the product label and the conversion to the size in use in your country.

    You can also consult our Size Tables to identify the best size for you, these values refer to the measurements of your body and not the size of the product, as the latter may vary depending on the fit of the garment and materials.

    We recommend you to pay particular attention to the fit specified in the product sheet (e.g. oversize, skinny, regular fit) and the sizes corresponding to those of your body to select the size that best suits you, which can sometimes vary from that of other brands.

  • Delivery Time

    Standard delivery takes place on average within 3 working days from the shipment of the order in Italy*, within 5 working days in Europe and within 8 working days for all other destinations in the world (10 days for Russia**).
    If the Express service is available, delivery will be made within 1-5 working days from the shipment of the order to all destinations.

    All orders are processed automatically, so it is not possible to change the shipping and delivery times.
    Carriers do not deliver on Saturdays, Sundays or public holidays; delivery times may be delayed during public holidays in Italy. For delivery to non-EU countries, customs clearance procedures may cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates.

    The courier will make a delivery attempt and, in case of non-receipt, will deliver the parcel to the nearest UPS Point.

    For orders placed by credit card or PayPal, an administrative check may be required with order handling times of up to 48 business hours.
    For orders made by wire transfer, the processing and shipping time will be calculated from the receipt of the credit to our bank account. Once we get your credit, you will receive an email confirming that we have received your payment.

    *****
    We are committed to meeting delivery times, but during the most demanding periods (including sales) delivery times may vary slightly. In addition, occasional technical updates to our operating system, or force majeure (such as particularly unfavourable weather conditions), may make certain delivery services temporarily unavailable or affect the time limit within which you place an order and the expected delivery times. Nevertheless, we want to reassure you that we will always commit to minimize these changes.

  • What do I do if the parcel has been delivered to a UPS Access Point?

    UPS delivers during office hours from Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays. After the first failed delivery attempt, the courier will take your parcel to the nearest UPS Access Point, if available in your area. You will receive an InfoNotice UPS alert with all the information and instructions you need for pickup.
    However, if there is no pickup point in your area, the courier will make two more attempts, after which the order will return to our warehouse.

    To pick up your order at the UPS Access Point, you will need to produce a valid ID; if you cannot pick up your parcel yourself, you can authorize another person to pick it up. If the parcel will not be picked up within 10 days, it will be returned to our warehouse and we will make the refund.

    Alternatively, you can contact the courier to arrange a second delivery attempt, free of charge.
