Faulty Items

If you have received a faulty item, please contact us at info@shopelae.com within 7 days of receiving your order. Be sure to include supporting images so we can assess the issue. Our team will get back to you within 48 hours.

Please note:

  • Items that have been worn, misused, or improperly cleaned (including dry cleaning) are not considered faulty.
  • We strongly recommend choosing your dry cleaner carefully, as we cannot reimburse for damage caused after purchase.
  • Claims made outside of the 7-day window are not eligible for review.

If your item is deemed faulty, we’re happy to offer a repair or replacement. If neither is possible, and the item is unworn, a refund will be issued.

Exchanges

For exchanges please email us at info@shopelae.com with your order number, the item you would like to exchange, and the preferred style and size.

Exchanges are subject to availability and must be requested within 14 days from delivery.

U.S. Exchanges:
Once your exchange is approved, we will provide a prepaid return shipping label via email. Your replacement item will be dispatched once the original item has been received and inspected at our New York studio.

International Exchanges:
Please note that we do not offer prepaid return labels for international exchanges. Customers are responsible for the return shipping costs and the shipping fees for the replacement item. Additionally, because duties and taxes are paid to local governments at the time of import, these fees are non-refundable and may be reassessed by your local customs office upon the arrival of your exchange.
