All transactions must be completed in full before an exchange is processed. 


All full price items paid through Afterpay and or Zippay are eligible for an exchange within 7 days from receipt of purchase but must be of the same value.  Loca Bella also reserves the right to offer an exchange if the return does not comply with all of the above. If the return does not meet the above you will be required to pay the extra shipping & handling charges for the item to be returned back to you. If you wish to make an exchange the extra shipping charge will be at your own cost.  All Afterpay returns will incur a 6% surcharge and Zippay returns will incur a 5% surcharge.

If neither option is possible, then a full refund will be issued. PLEASE NOTE: Shipping and handling charges are non-refundable and items that have been damaged from wear and tear are not considered to be faulty.

Camilla garments are enriched with hand made embellishments, beads, sequins & crystals.  These are applied by hand and differences between garments are unavoidable and some embellishments may come off the garment. This is not deemed faulty.

Have fun when wearing your garment as it has been made with lots of love!
