FAQ

Who are we?


Based in Philadelphia, PA, Damsel In Distress is a project dedicated to custom women's denim; we challenge all women to channel their inner-individuality into the clothes they wear. Damsel In Distress creates a variety of custom denim based on our brainstorms, but we don't limit our customers to only our ideas. We invite our customers to bring us their own denim and ideas that they wish for us to create for an even more unique experience.

What types of payment do you accept?

We accept any credit or debit card with the Visa or Mastercard logo. Payments are processed by our payment partner PayPal. PayPal does not require an account to make a purchase. If your credit/debit cards are already secured by a PayPal account they will ask you to login to make the purchase.

WE DO NOT ACCEPT CASH, CHECKS OR MONEY ORDERS. 

What is your return policy?

For items that you purchased, and then decide you do not want for any reason, we will credit your card for any items returned to us in good condition, as long as they are sent back to us within 7 days of when they were received. Sorry, but we cannot honor any returns that are sent back after this 7 day period. The customer pays any shipping charges. Follow the instructions on your packing slip for any such returns, and please include the packing slip in your return shipment to ensure proper credit. We process returns and issue credits every Friday. 

We do not exchange items. If you would like to exchange an item, then return it within the 7 day period, and place a new order for the item you would like instead.
If you have any items that are missing from your order, or were damaged upon arrival, please Contact Us right away, and we will promptly arrange a replacement at no additional cost.

Please notice that all Sale items are final. Credit will not be issued for these items.

Is everything on your website in stock?

We do our best to make sure that we only list items which we have a sufficient quantity of inventory on our website. In some cases, we will flag items as back ordered, which means you can order it but there will be a delay in shipping that item to you. If an item is on backorder for more than a week, we will partial ship your order, then ship the backordered items in a separate shipment. If an item is on backorder for less than a week, we will hold your order and send it in one shipment. 

In some cases, we may run out of items before we can remove or alter their listing on our website. If we are unable to fulfill your part of your order due to a discontinued item, we will not charge you for those items.
