Exchange/return for defect items must also meet the following conditions to be eligible for returns and exchange:
- Items are in their original condition, unworn, unwashed, unaltered and with their tags intact.
- Items are in their original ziplock packaging.
A defective merchandise is defined as an item that has manufacturer defects at the point of receipt that affects the outer appearance of the clothing and is obvious when worn (before washing). Some examples are holes on the outer fabric, pills, missing buttons or spoilt zippers which are unable to be zipped or unzipped.
Some examples of other minor imperfections that are unlikely to affect the overall appearance of the clothing and hence not considered as defects are:
- Minor variations in measurement - within 0.5 inches (measured when item is laid flat and untouched), is not considered a defect as our items are all mass manufactured by hand.
- Slight colour deviations are also not considered defect as colours may appear different under different monitor resolutions and studio/outdoor lighting.
- Placement of prints for printed items as it will differ for every piece due to cut of fabric.
- Minor stains or technical markings that can be easily washed off.
- Small stains on light coloured items that are not obvious.
- Loose threads, loose buttons, dropped buttons which can be easily resewn.
- Minor threading, minor stains and tiny holes on inner lining/areas that are not visible when worn.
Due to the nature of some fabrics such as linen, satin or fabrics with textures, there may be some streaks/slight stains/specks of fabric on the items. However, this is not considered a defect.
Treatment of clothing with the use of bleach, strong detergents, high heat (e.g. dryer or iron) or soaking may result in unintended damage to your clothing items. Dear Lyla will not be able to offer a replacement or refund once your items have been washed.
*Sale items may have slight defects like small scratches or small stains that are not obvious and negligible when worn. They are strictly not returnable and can only be exchanged to a different size of the same item.
All other reasons for a request for return or exchange will be considered on a case by case basis.
Dear Lyla reserves the right of final decision in the event of any dispute.
