Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 163 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many customers found that the products they received looked nothing like the items advertised on the website, often being of significantly lower quality and made from cheap materials. People frequently reported issues with the sizing being completely off and the garments lacking proper tags or labels. The website itself was often criticized for being misleading, particularly regarding the company's location, as many discovered their items were drop-shipped from China despite claims of being an Australian retailer. Reviewers also faced significant difficulties with returns and refunds; many were told to send items back to China at their own expense, and some never received their refunds even after complying with the process. There were instances where customers were offered partial refunds that never materialized, or their requests for refunds were ignored entirely. Conversely, a small portion of people felt that while some aspects like size might be unexpected, the product quality was acceptable.

SCAM this is a Chinese warehouse operation selling goods that don’t match sizing or descriptions and offer partial refunds only rather than the buyer having to pay high postage return to their distribution centre in China. AVOID.

Do not order from this company

Do not order from this company. Paid over $200 for a dress which had no tags, falling apart and so cheap!!!! Nothing like the picture. They are from china and not quick and easy returns. Fake address. I got 30% refunded as better than nothing. But have learnt a huge lesson, will be doing my research. The claimed Neutral bay address in Sydney is False. False advertising. Do not order.

Worst experience ever

Worst experience ever. Says the ship out of Sydney, LIES!! It’s coming straight from China. Ordered a dress for a wedding on the 02/09/2025. It’s now the 17/09/2025 and it still haven’t arrive and I’ve had to buy another dress for the wedding.

Do NOT buy from here!

I should have been more skeptical (a store in "Sydney, Australia" willing to ship to the US at such reasonable prices) but I went ahead and bought what looked like a beautiful yellow formal dress. I received a 2 piece (top and skirt), very flimsy cheap material, NO tags (which I'm sure they will use an excuse not to refund me) and they did not respond to my refund request until I opened a dispute with my bank and informed them. I had to return my item to China (so much for "Sydney") and even the lady at the post office couldn't help me figure out what the mailing address is, so I probably paid $45 to send the dress nowhere. This is my lesson learned: LOOK FOR REVIEWS before purchasing from new "trendy" e-stores.

Worst experience I have ever had…

Worst experience I have ever had purchasing clothes. To anyone considering purchasing from this brand, DO NOT DO IT. The material of the outfit was terrible. They promise free returns, therefore I followed the return “process”, sending my package to CHINA from AUSTRALIA as per the address provided to me by the company to secure the refund and they have not honoured the refund. I have received no refund and I have emailed multiple times to follow up and have not had any response. Absolutely terrible and fraudulent experience. I recommend you do not purchase from this company.

MISLEADING CONSUMERS

The company refund policy on their website states an address in Neutral Bay, Sydney. When you actually want to return something, they want you to pay to send it to China. AVOID THIS COMPANY. I had to lodge a complaint through my bank.

Cheap and worst return policy

The material of the dress was so cheap, when buy a dress for more than $100 you expect it to be resent quailing however this I’ve had dress from SHEIN made with nicer material
When asking for a return they can’t even create the shipping label for you and everything must come from a factory in china

Zoe Sydney is a Chinese store…

Zoe Sydney is a Chinese store pretending to come from Australia. They falsely claim clothes are high quality linen cotton but they are actually cheap thin polyester. Do not buy from this fraudulent company.

Hello! We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied. We see that you have been in contact with our support team and received a refund! We constantly monitor quality and will of course take your feedback on board. It is important for us to deny that we are just a “fake Chinese store,” even though we sometimes collaborate with various partners to offer better prices, faster deliveries, and a wider range of products.

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE!

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE!! If I could give this place 0 stars I would. First the website says it’s Australian and the prices are expensive enough that I assumed it was gonna be good quality. When I ordered a dress the receipt told me it was $120 and then when I checked my bank account I was only charged $77 which was my first red flag. Then the dress shipped from China which is when I knew that I had been scammed. The dress arrived and it was a piece of crap. I had gotten better quality items on SHEIN. I seriously can’t even explain how awful it was, completely unwearable. I emailed the company telling them I wanted to return the dress because their website says they take returns for full refunds. After emailing back and forth with them a couple times (very weird automated messages that dodged my questions) the company ghosted me and I’m not outside the return window on their website. Don’t waste your money and get scammed by this place!!

Hello, the reason you have been charged less is, of course, because you received a discount code that is automatically added at checkout. We rarely receive criticism for offering lower prices, but we take it on board in order to create more transparency in our checkout process. We see that we have been in contact with you several times to resolve the issue, and if you have any further questions, you are welcome to contact us again!

Avoid

Avoid - they are completely dodgy. Their Ts and Cs promise full refunds, and that they will pay for return shipping if they have made an error. We were sent the wrong size. They refused to pay for the shipping, and refused to provide a refund. Still chasing them to get my money back. Oh and the item bore no resemblence to what was on the website, was made in China (and the customer support team is in China too) and was average quality.

Hello, while we appreciate feedback, we cannot support false claims. We always try to resolve our customer issues in the best way possible, and I can see that we have been in contact and have resolved the problem and reached a solution. It is clearly stated in our terms and conditions that when the customer changes their mind, chooses the wrong size, or simply has second thoughts, it is the customer's responsibility to return the item. We do this for the environment, as we do not support end consumers who do not check size charts, washing instructions, place of manufacture, or materials before returning items. This harms the environment in many ways. However, we appreciate your feedback and hope that our solution was satisfactory.

Scam Do Not Buy from this Website

Ships from China and came in with a hole in the jacket and poor quality. Immediately sent photos and they said because I didn’t bring up the issue in the first email but that was literally my reason for emailing. It didn’t make sense.
Do not buy. SCAM
As of 9/9/25 I still have not received a refund even though below they say I have and I’ve followed up by email with no response.

Some products are shipped centrally from China, so we always take responsibility for quality and our customers' needs. In this case, I can clearly see that you have received a refund for the item. Asking for the reason for the return and sometimes requesting photos is part of our standard process for deciding on returns/refunds. This is not unusual and is more or less an industry standard. We hope that our actions were sufficient and that you will come back and give us a second chance.

SCAMMERS

SCAMMERS. Not a Sydney based business. Ships from China, takes a long time and did not ship the items I ordered. I ordered a knit lounge set, they sent a very ugly blazer not in my size. Customer support is saying it is the item I ordered and saying I can keep my order for a 30% refund and they do not offer free returns.
They will not send me my correct items. DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS WEBSITE.

Hello, we are sorry to hear that you have had an experience that has led you to claim that we are scammers. This is not something we stand for, and we work hard to meet our customers' needs. I can also see that we arrived at a solution that suited both parties, which is good to know. We will take your feedback on board, but we refute your claim that we are not doing our best for our customers. It is important to read and understand policies before making an online purchase.

NEVER ORDER FROM HERE

NEVER ORDER FROM HERE. Pictures of the clothes are not what they look like in person. If you want to make a return you have to pay for the return shipping which is $100+. Absolutely ridiculous. This online store is such a scam.

We are very transparent about the fact that it is the customer's responsibility to return the product for a refund in the event of withdrawal. We do this for environmental reasons, as the return rate is very high in the industry and has a negative impact on the environment. We are also pleased to see that we have reached a solution, which is positive! We wish you all the best for the future.

Can I give less than one star?

Can I give less than one star? DO. NOT. WASTE. YOUR. TIME. OR. MONEY. Sham of a “company”!! Website described the dress as 100% silk and it was 92% polyester and nothing like the photos. They are taking photos from the high end companies selling the real clothes, advertising it as the same, but shipping the Shein/knock off versions of it, but charging way more for it!! And to top it all off, when I asked to return it on their dime since it was clearly false advertising, they turned it on ME and said that I made the purchase knowing their return policies so I need to take responsibility. Which is hilarious that they expect their customers to adhere to their policies no matter what, when they are the ones that are screwing us over and selling us fake clothes!!! Please please please avoid this “company” at ALL COSTS!!! Not to mention that I have to write a review on third party sites because Zoe Sydney doesn’t allow us to leave reviews directly on their site, wonder why! The only reviews they allow are probably the ones they pay people to leave.

REPLYING TO ZOE SYDNEY’S RESPONSE:
No, you did not “resolve” anything or take responsibility!! You refused to give a full refund or pay for return shipping. After enough complaining from me, you offered a 50% refund. Even at half off, I’m still stuck with an overpriced dress that is NOTHING like your website. You failed to explain why you’re advertising clothing that you have no intentions on selling!!

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE.

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE.

Items are shipped from China and they pretend to be an Australian based retailer. The address on the site is not to their actual store and they have just used a random Australian address. Even when you order they show “shipped from sydney” but it is shipped from china. THEY ARE SELLING STUFF FROM SHEIN AT MARKED UP PRICES. SCAM - do not buy.

Update: dress arrived with no tags and labels. Completely different colour to what was pictured and looks exactly like a dress from Temu which is selling for $15.

Has taught me to use google lens first before making purchases from random sites.

Models on the page are very obviously AI.

Just be careful!! You pay the return!!

Just be careful!!
I ordered a jumpsuit, I am medium and I ordered large, still too small but long.
They said that the return is FREE, but it’s not true. I paid $30 for returned it to China.
The worst service!! Just do better Zoe Sydney.
