Unfortunately dress didn’t work out and when wanted to ship it back from the US to UK I was asked to pay $240 which is insane! I would expect from a company that big to let consumers know prior to buy... See more

Beautiful, well made and fast shipping

The dresses are beautiful just as pictured. Delivery was fast and quality is amazing. Cannot wait to see our girls wearing these dresses. Very much appreciated the sale that was active and allowed me to purchase these for a very reasonable price. True to size and very well made making the dresses comfortable for children to wear.

The quality of the fabric is very poor

The quality of the fabric is very poor, and the size was strange, short, but not commensurate with my daughter's body, very wide, slouching shoulders. Also, the shipping company took a tax from me in the amount of 263 Saudi riyals, which is absolutely illogical

Dear Sirs
We are sorry you were not happy with your product , the size speciation of our dresses is always monitored and adjusted where necessary but after 50yrs in business we believe we have the correct fit for the majority of our clients.
As per our terms and conditions the client is responsible for import duties and taxes into the country of destination this is something we have no control over.
Thank you for your feedback

HORRIBLE

HORRIBLE. TRIED TO RETURN SENT 3 EMAILS NO RESPONSE. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE WHEN YOU WANT TO PURCHASE NON IF YOU WANT TO RETURN. WHO KNOWS IF I WILL BE REFUNDED. VERY EXPENSIVE TO SEND BACK.

Dear Sirs
We are sorry for the late reply to your emails but we have been in the middle of a Office/warehouse move and this delayed some of our responses. I believe you have been contacted and when your returns are received the refund will be processed within 24hrs.
Thankyou

One of the worst online shops

This is one of the worst online shops I've ever dealt with. I bought a dress for my daughter and they sent it via FEDEX and when it arrived, we found that it does not fit and we had to return it and they refused us to send it via FEDEX or any other courier company and they demanded to send it via local post service and it ended up paying 35.5% of the the dress cost just for sending it back and with the original shipping cost they took to send it at the beginning, we indeed paid more than half the price of the dress that we don't have now!

will never deal with them again

David Charles dresses are everting what you would wish for! We have a collection and my daughter have been growing up with those dresses! Keep purchasing and never ever don’t disappoint!

Would be good if the dress coming with a nice hanger (not plastic) and dress should have a nice protection bag! Hopefully you guys have something to work on in the future! Otherwise we are very pleased ;)

Hi Ivrii
We are sorry for the misunderstanding that the contact telephone number is not a USA number but a UK number that is why you were unable to reach us.
However we are happy that we have resolved the issue with you and you are now satisfied with the outcome of your issue.
Thank you

Beautiful fit but expensive and not the best quality materials

The dress fits very well and looks very stylish. However the outer material feels very plastic-like and the lining is synthetic rather than natural fibre. We are keeping it because of the look. It was bought at a discount. Having now received the dress and had a feel of the material I would have second thoughts about buying it at the full price £££
