STORE POLICY

At Monarch XVII, we believe shopping should feel personal, fun, and stress-free. Every piece is created with care, and we want you to feel confident when shopping with us.

Because we are a small, slow-fashion business, we appreciate your patience and understanding as we create, package, and ship your order.

​

Customer Support

Have a question about an order, product, sizing, shipping, or anything else? We’re happy to help!

​

Please contact us at support@monarch-xvii.com and include your order number whenever possible so we can assist you as quickly as possible.

Our goal is to respond to customer inquiries within 2–3 business days.

 

Orders & Order Changes

Please review your order carefully before completing your purchase, including your:

  • Shipping address

  • Size

  • Color

  • Quantity

  • Product selection

​

Orders may be canceled within 8 hours of purchase. After the 8-hour cancellation window, orders may have already entered processing or production and cannot be canceled.

​

If you entered incorrect information, contact us as soon as possible. While we will do our best to help, we cannot guarantee that changes can be made once an order has entered processing.

 

Handmade & Slow-Fashion Items

Many Monarch XVII pieces are handmade or produced in limited quantities. Because of this, slight variations in stitching, fabric placement, texture, or appearance may occur.

​

These small differences are part of what makes handmade clothing unique and are not necessarily considered defects.

​

Some items may also be made to order or offered as pre-orders. Processing and delivery times may therefore be longer than those of ready-to-ship products.

 

Pre-Orders

Pre-order items are produced after an order is placed.

​

Please allow up to 45 days from the date of purchase for pre-order items to be delivered. Estimated timelines may vary depending on fabric availability, production, and other circumstances.

​

If your order contains both pre-order and ready-to-ship items, your order may ship together once all items are ready.

 

Shipping

Customers are responsible for providing an accurate and complete shipping address at checkout.

​

Monarch XVII is not responsible for delays caused by the shipping carrier, incorrect addresses provided by the customer, weather, natural disasters, or other circumstances outside our control.

​

If your package appears to be delayed or lost, please contact us so we can help determine the appropriate next steps.

 

Returns & Refunds

All sales are final. Monarch XVII does not offer refunds or returns.

​

Please review product descriptions, sizing information, and product details carefully before purchasing.

​

If you receive an item that appears to be damaged or defective, please contact us at support@monarch-xvii.com as soon as possible with your order number and photographs of the issue. We will review the situation and determine whether an appropriate resolution is available.

 

Product Questions & Sizing

We want you to love what you order. If you're unsure about sizing, fit, fabric, or product details, please reach out before purchasing.

​

Our customer care team will be happy to provide additional information when available.

 

Respectful Communication

We love our customers and strive to provide excellent service. We ask that all communication with Monarch XVII remain respectful and courteous.

​

Our team will always do our best to listen, understand the situation, and find an appropriate solution when one is available.

 

Our Promise

We may be a small business, but we take your order seriously.

​

Every purchase helps support a growing, independent, Black-woman-owned and veteran-owned business. We appreciate every order, share, follow, review, and kind word.

​

Thank you for choosing Monarch XVII and for supporting slow fashion, handmade pieces, and a little bit of beautiful weirdness. 🦋
