review: myshape.com

Slowly but surely as I purchase items from online stores or discover new modest-minded enterprises I think you should know about, I will review them here. Next week I will be publishing an official Modestia review of Eliza Magazine; this week’s review is of the online boutique Myshape.com.

Back in February, I asked what you thought I should wear to the Catholic Underground LA RED Party. I didn’t end up picking any of the options you voted on, but rather ordered this pleated floral skirt by AGB, priced at $40 from Myshape.com.

 

Admittedly, I was really nervous about ordering from Myshape because I had never ordered anything from the site before and the clock was ticking. The party was on a Saturday, and I ordered the skirt on Monday evening. Much to my surprise, I received my package on Thursday morning!

Part of the reason I received my order so quickly was because the warehouse and I are located in the same state. However, Myshape still gets major points for such fast service because I have ordered from certain sites like Old Navy.com that can take anywhere from 2-3 days just to process your order, even if you select rush shipping.

The skirt was beautiful, exactly as pictured, and well-made. I used the sizing guide on the site, and it fit perfectly. The skirt came wrapped in a pretty bag within the box like a present, complete with a signed card of thanks for ordering. There was no discount card included for my next purchase, but since I am a registered member of the site, I receive sale and discount emails a few times a week.

Overall, I was very happy with my purchase, and on the day of the party I received a number of compliments. I will be ordering from Myshape again, and I think I can officially say that Myshape.com is Modestia-approved!

    I was wondering about that site. I signed up and everything but am still a little nervous about ordering because I don’t like looking curvier than I am, and sometimes I do with certain clothes. Reading this has given me confidence to try it out. Thanks. :D

    thanks for this. I just ordered a dress from shape fx off of the myshape.com site. I just had a baby 4 months ago- so unfortunately I still look several months pregnant. I hope the dress they suggested flatters me the best it can.

    myShape has a great marketing idea, however they do not honor thier own policies regarding exchanges and returns. To help avoid a similar experience to mine, I want to inform you that they do not do exchanges as they state in their written customer service agreement. Instead, you must request a refund, wait for it to be processed (up to 2 billing cycles), reorder your item in a different size or color and also make a special request for any promotional pricing to be honored in your “reorder”. The process can take up to weeks and it’s an endless frustration of emailing back and forth to learn that they do not honor their written policies and to get the items you desire.
    I will not shop with them again.
