Returns & Store Credit

The return must be requested within 14 days of the delivery date

We don't do refunds, but we will issue a store credit that never expires.

Please note, all sale items are final sale and are not eligible to be returned.

Apparel: all original tags must still be attached to the garment(s). Be mindful of deodorant, makeup or perfume that may rub off, and beware of jewelry that may catch or tear fabric.

Intimate apparel and swimwear: must be returned unworn, and with the original hygienic protection sticker still intact. This applies to lingerie, hosiery, underwear, swimsuits, bikini bottoms, etc. 

Frankie Collectives reserves the right to reject any returning products that do not comply with the above stated return policy. Rejected items will be sent back to the original shipping address. In order to avoid this, please contact our Customer Experience team to address any issues or concerns you have regarding the item(s) you wish to return

We only offer store credit sent in the form of a gift card code to the email you provided at the checkout. This gift card will never expire.

You can submit a return request through our portal here.

If brokerage or duty fees are charged due to a mislabeled return it will be deducted from your refund/store credit.

Once we have received your package, your Frankie account will be credited. 

We’ll find something else! Unfortunately our pieces are 1-of-1 so we don’t offer direct exchanges on merchandise, but we can offer you site credit so that you can find another piece of sustainable clothing.

Please contact us at hello@frankiecollective.com. Have your order number on hand. Your order number can be found in your confirmation email.

Keep an eye on the tracking information and email us at hello@frankiecollective.com to let us know the order is being returned. 

Take a photo of the item and email it to our Customer Experience team at hello@frankiecollective.com with a description of the damage. Upon inspection of the photo you will be advised to return the damaged item, and we will then issue you store credit via E-Gift Card.

Please keep in mind: even great quality vintage pieces like the ones we stock usually have minor imperfections. We try to list these imperfections in each product description, but sometimes we miss them. If the damage in question was listed in the product description, then we are unable to accept returns.


Order Status

We know how important your order is to you, so we aim to fulfil orders as quickly as possible. While we cannot cancel or change an order once it has been placed, you are welcome to return the item in accordance with our return policy. 

Unfortunately, sometimes items get removed from our warehouse inventory and we are not able to ship them to you. In this case, we will refund the full value of the item and you will still receive the rest of your order.

Orders can't be changed once they are made, but you can use the code for your next purchase.

It is likely that you may have made a spelling mistake when typing your email in your customer profile. Please contact us so we can resolve the issue.

There are several reasons why your order may have been delayed.

In some cases, our security system may hold orders that run the risk of being fraudulent or need additional review or verification. When this happens, our customer service team will reach out to you directly via email.

In other cases, there might have been a holiday in Canada or a high volume of orders during a sale that might slow down our processing times.

In some cases, our popular reworked items will be made to order in our studio, and this can delay the process by a few days. (Please note, we do not do custom orders).

We appreciate your patience.

Shipping

Once you place an order, you will receive an automatic confirmation email. Once your order has been processed and is ready to leave our distribution center, you will receive another email with shipping information. Please note that the shipping confirmation email does not necessarily mean that the carrier (USPS or FedEx) has picked up your package from our distribution center. Please use the appropriate carriers tracking features to determine when your package has been picked up and is in transit. 

Please allow 2 to 3 business days from the time you place your order for its status to update.

The amount of time it will take for a package to reach its destination will depend on the type of shipping you choose at checkout. Before a package ships, it will also spend time being processed at our warehouse. Please consult the chart below for full timing information.

TYPE OF SHIPPING PROCESSING TIME SHIPPING TIME
Flat Rate (domestic) 2-3 business days 5-10 business days
Express 1 business day 3-5 business days
International  2-3 business days 10-15 business days

It usually takes 6-10 business days to arrive in your country. However, in some instances, delivery may be delayed depending on your country's customs. Frankie Collective is not responsible for applicable customs fees, import duties, taxes, or any other charges. The customer is responsible for the charges, even if the shipment is refused upon delivery.

The first thing you should do is contact your courier service directly. Once the package leaves our warehouse we are no longer responsible for it and won't have any information to offer you. However, we are more than happy to help you open a claim if the courier service has lost your package.

All items are assumed authentic unless stated otherwise.
