FAQ

Will this fit me?

The size for each item should say on its page in the description. However, most of our items will fit sizes 8-18. Our long kimonos will fit up to size 22. These kimonos are larger and are also recommended if you are looking for a top layer to wear out over your clothes. Clothes are made of the same fabric but come in sizes S-M is size 8-12 and M-L is 14-22

What is the fabric feel like? The fabric is described by our customer reviews as soft, light, and airy. Most items are made from Viscose/Cupro and Modal. These are soft, lightweight, comfortable, and breathable. Long kimonos are made from a crepe material. This is made from 100% modal and is slightly thicker and heavier than the gowns. These kimonos are excellent for a more substantial dressing gown or as a stylish top layer for your attire. They have a matt feel and drape beautifully.

Will this arrive on time? Delivery is via royal mail and is thus subject to strikes. Standard delivery takes on average 2-4 days in non-peak times and non-strike times. Express delivery takes on average 1-2 days Because we are small we can ensure packages get sent the next day, as opposed to you having to wait for a warehouse to process your order.

Can I return this item? Yes we offer 90 day returns!

Is this product ethical and sustainable? Our garments are made in India following the highest standards of ethical, environmental, and health & safety practice. We work exclusively with another second-generation family business that manufactures the products. This company is audited regularly and awarded certification SA 8000. This is a social audit that ensures there is no child labour, no bonded labour and employs all its skilled workers on a permanent basis. In addition, One Hundred Stars carries out its own factory inspections once a year in person for extra piece of mind. The patterns are screen printed using AZO free dyes and our delivery packaging is recyclable and made from recycled plastic.

Why buy from us? We are a family-run business with over 20 years of experience in retail and have over 1000 five-star reviews (with an average rating of 5.0 at the time of writing). Because we are small we can ensure packages get sent the next day ( except Sunday) , as opposed to you having to wait for a warehouse to process your order. We also sometimes run a promotional offer of a free pair of silver earrings with orders. If you qualify for such an offer then count yourself lucky!

Security & Payments

Why you can safely shop with us
At armed & Gorgeous, our secure server encrypts all of your personal information such as name, address and credit card information. We use stipe and paypal to process payments, which are the worlds largest and most secure payment processors in the world - safely processing nearly 100 million encrypted transactions daily.

Gold Standard Security
All transaction information passed from our website is encrypted using 128-SSL certificates. Information is never passed unencrypted and is always signed using SHA hashing to prevent tampering. You can feel secure in knowing nothing passed from our website can be examined, used or modified by any third party. Systems are PCI level 1 - the world's most stringent security certificate, and align with the NIST cybersecurity framework - the gold standard of cyber security.

Internationally recognised encryption and data storage
All data is secured using the internationally recognised SHA 256 encryption standards used by federal agencies. This remains one of the most used and one of the most secure hashing algorithms to date. The encryption keys are held on state-of-the-art, tamper-proof systems, making them all but impossible to extract. There is no direct way to decrypt this. They are regularly audited by the banks and banking authorities to ensure it remains so.

Employee access
No individuals within our Armed & Gorgeous or Stripe/Paypal are able to decrypt transaction information or cardholder data. Their systems only allow access to most senior staff and only in extenuating circumstances (such as investigations of Card Fraud by the Police). Your card information is secure even from their own employees because the systems never display the full card numbers, and employees undergo strict training every year.
