“Found a perfect dress”

Jennifer V.
11/1/19

I bought the pinkish dress with the black embroidered flowers on the front. It's a tulip shape and made of a tulle fabric. I could not have been happier in a purchase, fit, comfort, feel, and style. My only problem is I may not find another occasion to wear it! It was prompt, true to size and just lovely. I would not hesitate to order from Venus again. I also picked some other dresses from on line companies that say they do returns but will not. All from China. I will from now on always check reviews and give this a 5 star!

“Delays with shipping”

Angry W.
8/16/24

I have ordered many swimsuits from them. Typically nice products; however, some have fallen apart, turned strange color, etc. They do not ship promptly. Ordered several items on Monday and they did not ship out until Thursday. I will not receive the items in time for a trip now.

When adorable, quality and unique outfit matter think of Venus clothing, they are in to grant your quest for fashion. I recommend it to prospective customers.
A trial will convince you.

I've ordered from venus several times and never had an issue until it came to making a return. The issues with getting the money you paid out back makes this site not worth it.

I ordered 4 suits from them. They are complete garbage. See through, poorly made, not rue to size. Overall quality is terrible! Do NOT purchase this over priced crap.

Ok! So I truly do like some of there there clothing... NOT ALL... Some! And I got this 25 $$ Off Email on a purchase of 50.00$$s or more. There was a Maxie Sweater I have been eyeing for a few weeks. Well I thought GREAYT! Now I can get the 39.00$ sweater and another pair of jeans and save 25.00$$$... NOOOOOO! That is not how it works. First you have to buy then they send you a "Gift Card" after the purchase! SHAME ON YOU VENUS! NOT ONLY MISLEADING! I believe ILLEGAL!

They have a good variety of dresses and shoes. I used to buy from them. The prices are very affordable too. You can find everything in one store. I recommend this website. It worked for me.

Before opening my own online clothing shop I shopped at Venus for many years, great quality clothes always the right fit. Although I may by less from them I anticipate still being a customer.

Shocking scam poor workmanship rip off merchants who prey on those seeking a special gown, do not acknowledge their poor quality when challenged... AVOID AT All Cost, you will be disappointed, wish I'd known about this site before I ordered

Canadian Customers BEWARE! They are terrible! Their carrier loses orders and Venus does not account for it. Awful customer service, on hold over 2 hours and 11 minutes. I would not recommend.

I placed an order for 3 suits. Shipping was said to be 3-5 days. After placing the order and them TAKING MY MONEY shipping is now 7-10 days out! Will not arrive on time! I reached out to Venus and was told to contact DHL, that there was nothing they could or would do. NO partial refund, NO offer to ship out to me quicker, NOTHING. I will not place an order with them again and will be sure to tell all my friends to STAY AWAY. I

We apologize for the confusion. Our system has different order numbers for backorders and the original orders. When your original order was placed, it had a standard order number. When it is converted to the backorder, the system "resolves" the original order number by marking it as "shipped". As a result, the actual order has not shipped; the system just converted your reservation of the item on backorder to its own order number.
We would love to look into your account as well, please email us at socialsupport@venus, com, so we may assist.

I just received these nasty $#*!. 50$ looking cheap $#*! clothing and sandles that have cow bells ringing sounds when I tried on. Smh. Lol. Lol. I'm soo mad right now I have to laugh. Lol. I've gotten cuter clothing that fits better from the Family Dollar store than this lying unethical discussing company called Venus.com.

I received the other day and ship back the next day. What really gets me is that the free paid shipping label is not FREE. They deduct out of Refund WTF and you'll never get my business no more. I filed a claim through my bank I'm getting all of my monies back. They're not a ligit no morals bad customer service Co..

Ive been purchasing at the very least a couple hundred dollars worth of clothing from venus yearly for about the last 7 years and been extreamly happy. This last year however was a completely diferent story. The quality was ridiculously poor. When the clothes came in they looked more like something from those fly by night Chinese knock offs on those supercheap websites online. I couldnt believe it. I had at least 7 items come in and only one was wearable! They were either wayyy too small or a shirt i could wear in Miami on a hot summer day rather then the sweater material it claimed. Im so so so disapointed. I loved shopping here...

I buy a ton of my clothes from this site. Almost everything that you see on line is what they sends you. I would recommend them in a heart beat. The are fashionable current, sexy and very stylish.

Pros:
Good pricing when there is a sale or items that you want on clearance, which I lucky enough to find 4 items that I wanted
If you exchange by phone, shipping is free for the new item but you will still have to pay for the return/exchange shipping
Customer service was very pleasant when I called and they were very happy to help me out and answer my questions.
I ordered shape wear, skirt, and 2 swimsuit tops and all have been pretty good quality for the price I paid (but as I mentioned they were on clearance/sale).
I loved the Roxanne push up Swimsuit top because it helped shape while also providing a bit of lift so I don't look totally flat!
I also was satisfied with the Fringe Skirt I ordered although it is a little too long but nothing a little rolling up can't fix.
Shipping is quick they have a 7 business day guarantee! Without an extra charge of any kind and I thought it was reasonably priced at about $8.
Cons:
Charge for return shipping if not by phone
No way to filter selections (ie. Price from low to high, colors etc.), just scroll through the many options that they have available, and it might not even be in your size!
All of the items I ordered are delicate or hand wash only

Tip for consumers:
Read reviews and details about the item you want on their website carefully and don't hesitate to call and ask questions about the product.

I would have given 0 stars if I could. Do not order from this company. Poor service along with long wait for items. Most of the clothing isn't true to size and honestly not of good quality.

I can't say I hate Venus, I've ordered from them quite a few times already. But I don't think I will order from them again. Some clothing comes in looking very different then the pictures, a lot of what I've gotten was cheaply made, for the price I paid. Skirts that looked mermaid style came in boxy shaped or A line. Clothing with corset detail that looks like silky ribbon comes in and is cheap string, or a cotton type ribbon you'd find a pajama set from Ardene's tied with. Sizing is off, I've ordered a few size 2 jeans and they came in too tight. Size small leggings and they came in too big. Ive gotten clothing I absolutely love though, like a Aztec fall jacket, And a white dress. I think it's worth checking out and looking around the site. If looking to buy check out the sale or clearance, before going for full priced items. I have never bought shoes so I cannot comment on that. Shipping is very expensive, you have to pay when your shipment hits the boarder (duty and taxes) Which will be a seperate charge from your original purchase.

First of all, why am i unable to find the spot to write a review directly on their site? Not to mention all the reviews on the items seem to be positive?. RED FLAG... I ordered a couple items and i noticed some of the colours advertised are not the same in person. ALSO this romper that had amazing reviews was on of the items i purchased, and yes in the description it stated that the "print may vary", presuming that obviously they would be the same style of prints, just laid-out differently. NOPE this one looked beautiful in the advertised photo, and the one i received is not only different patterns, but it looks like its from china where they attempted to use the same prints and colours? What the heck? ALSO it looks super pink, but not a nice pink. It looks like you accidentally washed it in hot water and the red colours bled creating an ugly pink colour. Upon reading reviews of other people from this site i've noticed a few stating they're are being charged for shipping to return their items and i'm from Canada so i can only imagine how much i would be charged... Also for my purchased bathing suits I ordered the size that went with my measurements from the site and its a tad too small... I am normally a small/medium in clothes and i ordered a couple of bathing suit bottoms in an 8 just to be sure that they would definitely fit and they are still too small... Clearly China is making these clothes, because it certainly cant be made in the U.S. Also they smell weird, which given me another indication that they have to be coming from china...
