Made-to-order/Pre-order Clothing

Does your item have a pre-order status? Then it means that the item is currently being carefully made by any of our ethical labels and makers, and you’re welcome to purchase as normal via the checkout.

★ 4-5 weeks is the general estimated delivery time from date of purchase for pre-ordered items from Odalux. 

★ 3-7 days is the general estimated delivery time from date of purchase for pre-ordered items for Soelis.

• Please check here our returns policy. Pre-orders are not refundable, however you can return them for a store credit.

 

Pre-Order Shoes

★ Please allow up to 15-20 days of delivery from the date of purchase. In most cases, it will arrive prior to the 15 days period. This applies to Bohema Shoes.

If you receive a faulty item, please contact us (info@velvety.com.au). All shipping costs will be assumed by us. Once we have reviewed the item, we will then proceed to ship a new item in perfect condition, organise a credit store note or issue a refund, depending on your preference. If you choose a refund, restocking fees are not applied when a product is returned due to a manufacturing defect.

Think sustainably, shop accordingly.

At Velvety, for the past 7 years, we used to accept returns and offer refunds, however, due to our recent transition to become a marketplace rather than a shop, our return options are currently closed and our still stocked products are currently on sale.

 

 

Consumer guarantees

Of course, in the unlikely event that products you have purchased from us do not comply with the consumer guarantees in the Australian Consumer Law, we will provide you with the remedy required under the Australian Consumer Law.

• If the product has a major problem under the Australian Consumer Law, you can decide whether to receive a refund or replacement of the product.
• If the product has a minor problem under the Australian Consumer Law but is otherwise safe and fit for purpose, we will decide whether to refund, replace or repair the product.
• You must return the product to us unless we agree otherwise. We will reimburse you for the return shipping charges, and pay you compensation for any reasonably foreseeable damage caused by the problem.  
• Restocking fees do not apply to consumer guarantee refunds.
• Consumer guarantees do not cover damage to products caused by misuse, accident or abnormal use.

We reject most brands we research in the search for actual ethical fashion. Some companies may have a vegan product that is made of a material that is bad for the environment, or they cannot prove that they do not use sweat shop labour or they simply cost too much, we believe ethical fashion should be available to everyone. There are some countries that have very high levels of corruption that make it impossible to verify what occurs in the supply chain. It takes us a long time and a lot of questions to the right people to find brands that we can trust to be ethical guilt free purchases for our customers, you can rest assured we have taken the hard work out of ethical shopping.
