I ordered a dress for my daughter for her upcoming prom. We took proper measurements according to the website and ordered a size 4 dress. However, the dress that was received is closer to a 2 than a 4. My daughter is very petite, so there is no exaggeration with my assessment. Though very pretty, the dress has an insane amount of glitter. To further exacerbate this situation, I was charged an additional $175 for duty charges after paying $200USD for the dress, plus $40USD for shipping. I am in Canada, so imagine my surprise when this order came and the delivery person tells me that I need to pay $175 to receive my package! I spoke to UPS who recommended speaking to the company and asking them to absorb the costs. However after several correspondence with the company, the final verdict was that this was my responsibility. Had I been aware of these duty charges, I could have decided if that's a costs I wanted to pay. Now. I am left with a dress that does not fit her properly, and we will have to find an alternative. Spend your money elsewhere!
I know for me, I will never do business with this company again.

Hello Vinetta,

I am sorry the dress did not fit, in researching our previous correspondence we were not aware that the dress did not fit or that the glitter was shedding, Glitter shedding is a normal process due to the type of fabric used. If you would like to return the dress please let us know and we would be happy to send you an email with the information needed to return the dress per our return policy. https://www.promgirl.com/pages/returns

In regards to the additional charges these charges are normal when shipping from the US to another country, they are assessed by the country in which it is shipping to.
This information can be found on the website under the shipping information. https://www.promgirl.com/pages/shipping

The dress did not fit despite using measurements. When I returned it I was given a store credit...

So by "Easy Returns" this business means you can send the dresses back for a store credit? NO...
