Refund policy

At Viva Fashion, we want you to be completely happy with your purchase. If an item does not meet your expectations, you may return it under the conditions set out below. This Return & Refund Policy applies to all orders placed through our online store at www.viva-fashion.com. Viva Fashion is operated by Velo Goods Retail.

Returns and Cancellations

We offer a return period of 30 days from the date you receive your order, giving you time to decide. This 30-day period applies to all customers in the United States.

To be eligible for a return, your return request must be submitted within the 30-day period. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept returns that are requested or shipped after this timeframe has passed.

Order cancellation: If you change your mind before your order has shipped, you can cancel it free of charge. Email us at support@viva-fashion.com with your order number as soon as possible and we will cancel the order and issue a full refund. Once an order has been dispatched, it can no longer be cancelled, but you can still return it under this policy.

No Restocking Fee

We do not charge a restocking fee. A 0% restocking fee applies to all returns, for every product and every return reason. When your return is approved, you receive the full purchase price of the returned item back — no processing fee, no administration fee, and no percentage deducted for handling.

Conditions for Returns

To qualify for a refund, the returned item must meet all of the following conditions:

  • The item is unused, unworn, and unwashed
  • The item is in the same condition as when you received it
  • All original labels and tags are still attached
  • The item is returned in its original packaging
  • You can provide your order number or proof of purchase

If a returned item arrives damaged, worn, or incomplete, we reserve the right to decline the return and send the item back to you at no cost to you. We will always contact you by email and explain the reason before doing so.

Return Shipping Costs

Defective, Damaged, or Incorrect Items

If you receive an item that is defective, damaged in transit, or does not match your order, we cover the return shipping costs in full. Please contact us as soon as possible at support@viva-fashion.com or through our Contact page so we can arrange this for you.

Change of Mind Returns

If you wish to return an item because it does not fit, you ordered the wrong product, or you have simply changed your mind, the cost of return shipping is the customer's responsibility. The exact cost depends on the carrier and service you choose; we do not charge a fixed return fee ourselves.

Original shipping costs (if any were charged) are non-refundable, unless the return is due to an error on our part. Standard shipping within the United States is free, so in most cases no shipping cost is deducted from your refund.

How to Start a Return

Please follow the steps below to start a return:

  1. Contact us — Send an email to support@viva-fashion.com or reach out through our Contact page. Please include:
    • Your order number
    • The item(s) you wish to return
    • The reason for your return
  2. Receive your return instructions — We begin processing every return request within 2 business days. You will receive an email with your return authorization, the return instructions, and the full return address.
  3. Pack the item securely — Place the item in its original packaging, including all labels, accessories, and any documentation that was included.
  4. Ship the parcel — Send the parcel according to the return instructions provided. We strongly recommend using a tracked shipping service and keeping your proof of shipment until your return has been fully processed.

Return Address

Returns are shipped to our international returns processing center. Because we work with more than one fulfillment location, the correct return address depends on the item you are returning, so the full return address is provided by email once your return request has been approved — always within 2 business days of your request.

Please do not ship a return before contacting us, as parcels sent without prior authorization may not be accepted and cannot be traced back to your order.

Refunds

Once we receive your returned item, we inspect it to confirm it meets our return conditions.

If your return is approved:

  • You receive a full refund of the purchase price to your original payment method. No restocking fee or handling fee is deducted.
  • Refund processing takes 5–10 business days from the date we receive the returned item.
  • After the refund has been processed, it may take an additional 3–5 business days for the funds to appear in your account, depending on your bank or payment provider.

If your return is declined (for example, because the item does not meet the return conditions), we will notify you by email, explain why, and arrange to return the item to you at no cost.

Late or Missing Refunds

If you have not received your refund after the timeframes above have passed, first check your bank account again and contact your credit card company or bank, as processing times can vary. If you have done this and still have not received your refund, please contact us at support@viva-fashion.com and we will investigate it for you.

Exchanges

Would you like to exchange an item for a different size, color, or product? Exchanges are available subject to stock availability. Once we have received and inspected your returned item, we will ship the replacement. Please allow 5–10 business days for processing of the exchange, plus the standard delivery time set out in our Shipping Policy.

No restocking fee or exchange fee is charged. If the item you would like is no longer available, we will issue a full refund instead.

Non-Returnable Items

For hygiene and safety reasons, the following items cannot be returned:

  • Underwear and lingerie
  • Swimwear (if the hygiene strip has been removed)
  • Earrings and pierced jewelry
  • Personalized or custom-made items
  • Items clearly marked as non-returnable or final sale on the product page

This does not affect your rights under applicable law. If any of the above items arrive defective or damaged, please contact us at support@viva-fashion.com or through our Contact page and we will find a suitable solution.

Damaged, Defective, or Incorrect Items

Please inspect your order as soon as it arrives. If you receive an item that is defective, damaged, or incorrect, contact us within 7 days of delivery at support@viva-fashion.com or through our Contact page. Please include:

  • Your order number
  • A description of the issue
  • Photographs of the item and the packaging

We will assess the issue and offer a replacement, an exchange, or a full refund, at your choice. We cover all shipping costs in these cases.

Misuse of the Return Policy

Velo Goods Retail reserves the right to decline returns where there is evidence of misuse, for example when items have clearly been worn, washed, or intentionally damaged before being returned. We will always explain our decision in writing and give you the opportunity to respond.

Your Consumer Rights

Nothing in this policy limits the rights you have under applicable federal and state consumer protection law in the United States, including the consumer protection laws of the state in which you reside. If goods are faulty, not as described, or do not match what was advertised, you are entitled to a remedy as provided by the applicable law.
