Do not order from here - worst customer service I have ever experienced. I ordered a white jumpsuit for my rehearsal dinner for $300 something, it didn’t fit so I tried to return it. They sent photos back saying they could not accept my return because there were makeup stains. I was surprised because I was careful not to try on with makeup or self tanner, but ok, what can you do. Anyway fast forward, I get the jumpsuit back and there are NO STAINS. They actually sent a photo of someone else’s’ worn clothing. Appalled.
Response from JAUSApr 22, 2023
Hello Kris, we sincerely apologize for your dissatisfaction. The Misha Costanza Jumpsuit you returned had noticeable dark self-tanner or makeup residue on the inside shoulder/strap. We want to clarify that we did not have multiple units of this specific style in stock, and the one you returned was the last one in stock. Therefore, it's unlikely that you received a different person's photos of the jumpsuit, as your return was the only one we have received back in months.
If you believe there has been a mistake and it was not the Misha Costanza Bonded Crepe Jumpsuit, please contact us at [email protected] so we can investigate further for you.

Scam - item never sent.
Scam - WORST SHOPPING EXPERIENCE EVER.
Item never received. It never left their warehouse dispite being told it was en route for months. Eventually after being given multiple tracking numbers I read the reviews and realised it wasn’t ever coming.
Finally got a refund via PayPal dispute 3 months after I bought the jumpsuit. Awful experience, buyer beware.

We're so sorry to hear about your experience Clair. We'd like to give more clarification as to what exactly happened.
Your package was only shipped out once with one tracking number, unfortunately it was lost in transit. Thankfully you had Route Protection Insurance and so we lodged a claim for you. At the same time, you had opened a PayPal claim, which then stopped our chances for Route Protection Insurance to refund your order, which could have been done in 7 days.
Once a claim is opened on PayPal, we or Route Protection Insurance are unable to do any refunds on our end until that investigation is completed. PayPal takes approximately 3 months to complete investigations. They have covered the transaction for the both of us, as the package went missing in transit.
We would have much rather you received your gorgeous Jumpsuit instead of going through this process. It's really upsetting for us as well as a small business when this happens to our customers and our merchandise. However it is unfortunately reality that packages, especially international, can go missing or take longer than expected to deliver.
Please let us know if we can assist with anything further.
Love,
JAUS team x

Scam! Do not buy!!
If I could leave negative stars I would. The quality is terrible. It looked nothing like the pictures. Their customer service is beyond terrible. I have been calling and email and have not been able to reach anyone. I am extremely disappointed for the price. They are a huge scam. DO NOT PURCHASE.
Response from JAUSSep 17, 2022
We're so sorry to hear that you feel that way Sabrina, after receiving your email we tried giving you a call and left a voicemail for you as we felt it would resolve it for you sooner if we spoke to you directly.
The Marilyn Dress & Mesina Dress have been our best sellers for some time now so I'm very sorry to hear you were not happy with them. We take so much time selecting the brands and styles we carry in-store so it's disappointing to hear you were not happy with either.
I believe this has now been resolved for you. Please let us know if we can assist you with selecting any styles in future. For immediate assistance, you can contact our Birmingham Boutique on 248-283-3994, we're more than happy to help.
Love,

I WISH I READ ALL THE BAD REVIEWS BEFORE I PURCHASED OVER $500
It states in the Instagram bio * AUSTRALIAN FASHION* I purchased the dress which is advertised in $$, automatically thinking it’s Australian.
SNAKE TACTIC, you’ve advertised the price of the dresses to be the same as the Australian price also! The dress I bought is $316 in Australian, why is it the same price in USD? That’s almost double the price! To confuse the customer!
Only AFTER payment was I notified it was in USD **not at checkout** but when I received the notification from my banking app. I quickly asked for a refund and that I didn’t want the dress due to this reason. I get an email 48hours later stating that it’s already been shipped. I wait a month still nothing and now I’ve been offered a $300USD WHICH DOESNT EVEN COVER THE SHIPPING CHARGE OR THE ACTUAL AMOUNT I PAID FOR OR THE DRESS IN “USD”. THIEVES!! SCAM ARTISTS!!
I’m still waiting on a response! Please give my money back, this is not how you run an successful business.
Response to your comment:
The dress on its own was $316, why have I received a $300 credit note? That isn’t including shipping for your information!
You canceled the shipment from your end, being the last dress in stock, and then offered me a credit note. How is that fair?? You only covering $440 and I paid $500 AUS meaning shipping is $60, really ?
As soon as I realised it was in USD I emailed and mentioned it was a mistake and 48hours later you mentioned it was shipped out. I waited over a month for you to lie and say it was canceled from my end. That isn’t ethical at all! Also with shipping I paid $345 USD not $340USD. Your refund isn’t correct either
Response to your edited comment:
I never canceled the shipment from my end, so why didn’t I receive it if it were too late for me to cancel? It’s unfortunate that I’m unable to receive your rapid response via email and have to take it to such a public platform to receive a response from you this quickly! It’s a very difficult process. Also, the Address wasn’t in the bio before my interaction! Australian brands will NOT be charging a different price international as you are currently!!
Given that it was canceled from your end somehow, you should be sending out another one free of charge and not handing over a credit note!
Also it doesn’t help that everything I want is out of stock in my size or only 1 left. I’m not about to make the same mistake of getting the last one in stock again, after what’s happening currently!
Could you at least send out the same dress in the black? Seeing that I’ve paid for the same amount? And you have my XS size available!

Still waiting on your response!
21st October and I’ve finally received my dress. Not sure if I would have, if I hadn’t take matters so publicly! If you charge someone for a product either replace the product or provide a credit note for the price of the product, not less. I will never purchase from here again!

Hi Mary,
We're so sorry that you did not see that we were a USA based company. When you click checkout, the total states "USD $XXX.XX", USD means that it is US Dollar.
There are a few other details we'd like to bring to your attention. On our home page, our address is listed as 311 E Maple Road, Birmingham, Michigan. This is in USA, not Australia.
Our Instagram Bio states that we're a Boutique in Michigan USA:
"JAUS
• Australian Fashion
• Boutique in Michigan USA
• We ship worldwide"
Our headline states "Your Place to Shop Aussie Fashion in USA".
Our footer states "Birmingham, Michigan" and our contact us page states that we're located in Michigan USA, with US contact details. There is also a map that comes up under our Location Tab.
Your $300 USD credit is for your return, we cannot include the shipping in the credit. USD (US Dollar) converts to a different amount in AUD (Australian Dollar). So if you have a $300 USD credit, this would convert to approx. $440 AUD based on the current exchange rate. The exchange rate changes everyday, you can google what the current exchange rate.
As a boutique carrying Australian brands, we do not set the RRP "Recommended Retail Price", that is set by the brands. We are not allowed to price them any different.
Shipping costs are selected by our customers at checkout, we have no control over what shipping you select. Unfortunately as stated earlier, we cannot refund that amount.
Unfortunately we aren't able to cancel a transaction once the product has been shipped out. We would have definitely done that for you if we hadn't yet shipped out your item.
If you need further clarification on our location, the exchange rate or shipping, you can contact us on 248-283-3994 (this is a US phone number, please note we are on a different time zone. We are open 10:30-6:30pm EST) or you can contact us via email on [email protected].
Looking forward to assist you further.
Love,

I never received my product. They’ll take your money and never send you your clothes.
JAUS gives Australian online retail a poor reputation. I have ordered my dress, with my “credit note” over 1-month ago and still have not received it. DO NOT EVER PURCHASE OFF THIS JANKY STORE!
Even after emailing, twice! I just don’t understand who is running it and what moral compass they have to take peoples money and not give the product in return. I’ll be looking into customer rights and doing my best to get my money back. Absolutely disgusting service and behaviour!
Response from JAUSAug 5, 2022
Hi Sarah, I'm so sorry to hear about your experience, we are up to date with responding to customer emails so I am unsure how your emails would have been missed. Could you please email us at [email protected] with your order details so we can have this looked into and resolved for you ASAP.
Looking forward to resolving it for you.

The most infuriating online shopping experience..
The most infuriating online shopping experience.
I have had a $350+ gift card to use at Jaus because I purchased a dress for my engagement party & NEVER received it, even after paying for express delivery (which the shipping amount was not included in the gift card for something I never even received)!
When I asked for a refund I was given the gift card & I have been trying to use it for over 2 and a half years. Almost EVERYTHING I want is out of stock & I can safely say since I have been tracking for such a long time that they hardly have new styles come in, while the SOLD OUT stock never gets replenished.
I am trying to use my voucher up so it's not wasted but it's impossible when everything in my size is sold out - I have also asked for a refund on the voucher which was ignored until the 3rd email due to the stock reasoning which was denied.
I will most definitely not be using Jaus to purchase brands that I can get elsewhere without the hassle.

Hi SP, we're so sorry that you've been frustrated with your experience. We have hundreds of styles that are uploaded each month, and can definitely try to restock something that you are specifically interested in.
Could you please email us at [email protected] with the options you were interested in? We can find out if they can be specially ordered for you.
Love,

"Australian Fashion" they say...
"Australian Fashion" they say.... The inside tags on the dress I ordered said "MADE IN CHINA"in large letters and i looked up the style code number of the dress online and it is designed from a Los Angeles wholesale company.
