Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 170 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Customers consistently report that the product quality is poor, with items often made from cheap materials that don't match the descriptions or images on the website. Many also found the sizing to be completely inaccurate, leading to unwearable clothing. Reviewers frequently mention that customers believe they are an Australian retailer, when products are actually shipped from China. The return policy is a major point of frustration, as customers are often required to send items back to China at their own expense, making refunds difficult to obtain. Additionally, many people report issues with receiving refunds, even after being promised them. However, some customers did find certain items, like a handbag, to be of good quality, despite size discrepancies.

Scam website. Clothing is poorly made and not wearable. Customer service contact details listed, go nowhere. Phone number doesn’t work and email gets a 404 message. Don’t purchase from here.

Long wait time and terrible quality

Same as all the other review. It took 2+ weeks to arrive as it comes from Asia instead of Australia but could have dealt with that. However, when we opened the long awaited package, we could not believe how bad the quality was. It was terrible, without shape, cheap material you could see thought (not ideal for a winter jacket). Items RRP were $250+. 100% sure Kmart will offer better quality for a 10th of the price

This is a scam website

This is a scam website. They are NOT in Sydney. They never shipped my dress and they haven't responded to my emails. Report them to the ACCC.

Lightweight Anti-Sweat Linen Trousers

Product: Lightweight Anti-Sweat Linen Trousers
Order Date: (add date)

I’m really disappointed with my purchase from Zoe Sydney. After wearing these pants once, the fabric split right at the fork area. The stitching completely came apart and there was a large tear, which clearly points to poor quality or faulty construction.

I contacted customer service with photos and explained this happened after a single wear. All they told me was that they “don’t offer refunds after use.” They did not address the issue of the faulty workmanship, even though the damage was obviously not caused by normal use.

For the price, I expected much better quality. The lack of accountability and refusal to stand behind their products means I would not purchase from Zoe Sydney again. I’m leaving this review to help others make an informed decision.

Wedge summer shoes shockingly poor quality

Paid around $80 for wedge shoes usually $199. Quality is so poor it is hard to describe! The wedge base is made from very light plastic, sizing is wrong, upper shoe cheap thin vinyl. Shipped from China. No store in Sydney. Buyer beware.

I wish I could rate this store 0

I wish I could rate this store 0. Misleads you into thinking you are ordering from Aus, but you're ordering from China. Took forever for my order to arrive, and when it did, the dress was the absolute worst quality you can inagine. Cheap, thin, flimsy material. I got an XS, but it was more like an XL. Absolutely should have read reviews beforehand do not order from them, they are a scam, it is basically shein.

I wish I could give it 0 stars.

I wish I could give it 0 stars.
The products are shipped from overseas and are the same quality as what you find on some of the mass produced websites.
Their website says you can return items to a NSW address but when you reach out to request a return authorisation, like they state on their policy, they tell you it must be returned to CHINA or you can keep it and accept a discount.
Honestly, businesses like this are despicable.
DO NOT BUY

A scam in name and service

The garment I received is made from a totally different fabric from that pictured. Very disappointing. The website states easy returns, but when I tried to return the item, I was told that the return address is in China and there are no returns to an address in Australia. Definitely not an easy return. There is no ZOE in Sydney. Even the name is false.

SCAM Company

This fraudulent company, with the deceiving name of 'Zoe Sydney' have a virtual address in Sydney, but in reality are dropshipping from CHINA.
They state their refund policy, to deceive customers into believing a refund can be obtained for faulty or wrong sized clothes. But when my daughter's dress arrived 3 weeks later it stank of FISH and was such bad quality, it must be made in some underground sweat shop (near a fish market) in China.
Customer service then tells me to send it back to China for a refund. This would be $50, which I believe they still dont refund, based on other 1 star reviews here.
'Chloe' from Customer service then has auto response emails for every email i send, to follow up on the 30% refund that they then promised to issue if I kept the dress.
- End result = dress in the bin
- No refund
- Had to buy a new dress from a real company.
- That yuck feeling of being scammed

Dont go there!

Misleading

Misleading, not a Sydney company took 4 to 5 weeks to get here from China.
No correspondence, terrible quality small, looked like a large, all round crap, total scam. My fault should have read the reviews first.
Don't bother.

Disgusting quality

Disgusting quality. Silly of myself not to look at reviews prior to purchasing. Item was the cheapest version I have ever seen on the photo and took 3 weeks to come. Website states based in Sydney, NSW.. tracking was from UK… disgusting.

SCAM!!!

SCAM!!!

Do not buy from this business.

1. They are not based in Australia as their website suggests, they are drop shipping from China.
2. Returns are INCREDIBLY expensive as they have to go back to China.
3. Dress quality is horrible, so you will absolutely want to return them (see above).
4. Customer service is awful - clearly automated and it was like my messages weren't even being read.
5. My delivery came in stages and was all late - one part still hasn't arrived and it's been nearly 2 months.

Stay away

Stay away! Another Chinese drop shipping company pretending to be a local Australian store. Quality nothing like advertised. Return at your own expense to china, but I didn’t bother as I didn’t want to sink any more money in case I never saw the refund.
