Shipping & Handling

 

Q: I just purchased an order online. When will my package arrive?

A: Thanks for shopping with us online! We do our best to get all online orders out within 24-48 hours upon receipt, and you will receive a tracking number as soon as it ships. However, once a package leaves our shop, we cannot guarantee how long it will take to arrive. If you wish for your package to arrive quicker than our standard estimate of 3-5 business days, please get in touch with us via email or phone for expedited shipping rates. 

 

Q: How is my order protected during shipping? 

A: We insure every package for the total amount paid. In the event that the shipper deems the parcel lost, you will receive a refund. However, it is each customer's responsibility to provide a safe and secure delivery address; JUDITH cannot issue refunds or replacements in the case of a stolen package. We also highly recommend shipping with a signature required. If you do not wish to require a signature on your package, you can mark that choice on the Check Out screen.

    Purchases & Returns

     

    Q: How do I know my size at JUDITH? 

    A: We carry a diverse group of designers in the shop, and as such, you can expect to see sizing variations between brands and styles. A great way to guarantee you are getting the right size for you is to come in and try it on! We understand that isn't always possible, so we do our best to list garment measurements and fit recommendations for each item on our website (see below!). Our team is always happy to help you via email or telephone if you have any further questions. 

     

    Q: How do I determine if an item will fit me based on your garment measurements?

    A: For a point of comparison, grab a similar item from your closet with a fit you love. Lay that garment on a flat surface and use a tape measure to copy the following measurements. Then compare those measurements with those of the item you are considering.

     

    Tops: 

    bust: measure seam to seam under the armpit and across garment.

    sleeve length: measure from shoulder seam to sleeve cuff.

    shoulder to hem: measure from the highest point along the shoulder straight down to bottom hem.

     

    Dresses:

    bust: measure seam to seam under the armpit and across garment.

    sleeve length: measure from shoulder seam to sleeve cuff.

    shoulder to hem: measure from the highest point along the shoulder straight down to bottom hem.

     

    Bottoms:

     

    waist: measure across top of waistband

    hip: measure down 7” from the waist and then measure across garment, side fold to side fold. 

    rise: measure that seam found on the pant's crotch and follow it to top of waistband.

    total length: measure from top of waistband down to leg opening, following along the side seam of the leg.

     

    Shoes:

    To best measure your own foot for sizing, we recommend measuring your foot flat on the floor (never in shoes!). 

    – width: measure the width across the ball of your foot by stepping on the ruler/tape measure. 

    – length: using a ruler or tape measure, measure from the back of your heel to the tip of your longest toe. 

     

    Q: What is your return policy?

    A: We do not accept returns for refunds. Returns are allowed for exchange or store credit on full-price merchandise within 7 days of purchase (in-store) or 10 days of purchase (online).
