Refund policy

Effective Date: 15 August 2026

At RDDHI Designs, every product is carefully selected, prepared, stitched or packed before it reaches you.

Because of the nature of our products, returns are accepted only when there is a genuine error, defect, damage, incorrect item, missing item or other issue attributable to RDDHI Designs.

We do not accept returns simply because a customer has changed their mind or no longer wants the product.

This policy applies to all products purchased through the RDDHI Designs online store, including ready-to-wear products, fabrics, custom-stitched garments and bridal/customised wear.


1. 24-Hour Reporting Requirement

Any issue with your order must be reported to RDDHI Designs within 24 hours of receiving the product.

Requests submitted after the 24-hour period may not be accepted.

Customers are therefore strongly advised to inspect their package and product immediately after delivery.


2. Mandatory Opening Video

An opening/unboxing video is mandatory for any return, refund or exchange claim based on an issue with the order.

The video should:

  • Begin before or at the time the package is opened

  • Clearly show the package received

  • Show the package condition

  • Show the product received

  • Clearly demonstrate the reported issue

  • Be continuous and unedited

The opening video must be submitted along with the issue/return request within 24 hours of delivery.

The video will be used by RDDHI Designs to assess and verify the claim.


3. When Is a Return Accepted?

A return may be accepted where RDDHI Designs verifies that there is a genuine issue attributable to RDDHI Designs.

Examples include:

Wrong Product

You received a product different from the one ordered.

Incorrect Product / Fabric

You received an incorrect fabric, product, quantity or specification compared with your confirmed order.

Manufacturing or Production Defect

The product has a genuine manufacturing or production defect attributable to RDDHI Designs.

Damage

The product has been damaged before or during delivery, subject to verification based on the submitted evidence.

Missing Item

An item included in the confirmed order is missing from the package.

Incorrect Customisation

A customised or stitched product does not match the confirmed customisation due to an error attributable to RDDHI Designs.

Each claim will be reviewed by RDDHI Designs before a refund or exchange is approved.


4. When Is a Return NOT Accepted?

Returns are not accepted for:

  • Change of mind

  • Personal preference

  • No longer wanting the product

  • Choosing the wrong product voluntarily

  • Colour preference where the product matches the displayed/ordered product

  • Minor colour variation caused by photography, lighting or screen settings

  • Personal styling preferences

  • Issues resulting from customer-provided incorrect measurements

  • Damage caused after delivery by the customer

  • Products that have been used, altered, washed or damaged after receipt

  • Any issue that is not attributable to RDDHI Designs


5. Custom-Stitched and Bridal Wear

The same 24-hour issue-reporting requirement applies to:

  • Custom-stitched garments

  • Bridal wear

  • Customised blouses

  • Made-to-order garments

  • Personalised garments

Once stitching or production has started, the order cannot be cancelled.

However, if RDDHI Designs makes a genuine error in the production, stitching or customisation, the customer may report the issue within 24 hours of delivery with the required opening video.

If the issue is verified as an RDDHI Designs error, the customer may choose a refund or exchange, subject to the circumstances of the order.


6. Fabric Orders

The same return policy applies to fabrics.

A customer may raise a return claim if RDDHI Designs has supplied:

  • The wrong fabric

  • The wrong quantity

  • A materially defective fabric

  • A product different from the confirmed order

The customer must report the issue within 24 hours of delivery and provide the required opening video.

A fabric order cannot be returned simply because the customer has changed their mind or no longer requires the fabric.


7. Missing Items

If an item appears to be missing from your order:

  1. Report the issue within 24 hours.

  2. Provide the required opening video.

  3. Share your order details with customer support.

RDDHI Designs will investigate the issue against the order and packing records and take appropriate action based on the findings.


8. Refund or Exchange

If RDDHI Designs verifies that the issue is attributable to RDDHI Designs, the customer may choose between:

Option 1 — Refund

The customer may request a refund of the amount paid for the affected order.

Option 2 — Exchange

The customer may request an exchange/replacement, subject to product availability.

If the requested replacement is unavailable, RDDHI Designs may provide an appropriate alternative or refund, as applicable.


9. Refund Amount

For an approved return resulting from an error attributable to RDDHI Designs, the customer will receive a refund of the full amount paid for the order, including the original shipping charges.

RDDHI Designs will also bear the applicable return shipping cost for an approved return arising from an RDDHI Designs error.


10. Refund Processing

Once the returned product has been received and inspected and the return has been approved, the refund will be initiated within 5–7 business days.

The actual time taken for the amount to appear in the customer's account may depend on the payment provider or financial institution.

Refunds will generally be processed through the applicable original payment method, subject to the payment provider's procedures.


11. Return Shipping

Where RDDHI Designs verifies an error attributable to RDDHI Designs:

RDDHI Designs will bear the applicable return shipping cost.

Customers should not independently ship a product back without first contacting RDDHI Designs and receiving instructions regarding the return process.
