Beware these stores advertising on facebook that give a locality in their name. The clothing store has nothing to do with Charleston SC. They are very cheaply made clothes from China. The stated "Hass... See more

Charleston Boutique, What A Scam
What a scam. Of course there is no "brick & mortar" actual shop This is not a "boutique" but Chinese mail order of horrible clothing. They ship substandard clothing from China and not by UPS as they mention. The materials used are tissue paper thin and almost feel like plastic. Three days after I ordered I found out about them and asked to cancel my $172 order. Not possible, "in transit". No, it was not in transit yet. There is no return paper work and upon research returns are next to impossible. Why are they being allowed to continue in the USA?
Terrible customer service…
Not only did the dress not fit well there’s no real return process. I get the the fit isn’t right. That happens. But the waist was way too high and the buttons left front gaps. So I wanted to return it and get a refund. I was offered an exchange due a similar item. No in asked for a refund. But they b told me it was not cost effective due to shipping overseas sans customs fees. They gave me 10%. They claim money back guarantee is not happy. DO NOT EVER DO BUSINESS WITH CHARLESTON BITIWUR
This isn’t a company in the US….MISLEADING!!!
If you don’t mind paying shipping multiple times for items that don’t fit this is the place for you! They are friendly for sure, but the clothing is sized incredibly small so be certain to order one or two sizes up. I would stay away from the undergarments, I wear a 36DD, ordered a XL the cups are so close there is NO WAY it would fit a b cup. Did I mention you aren’t ordering from the US so your returns would require international shipping fees???? Too expensive to have to go through all the fuss to exchange things. Took over 3 weeks to get items that will be donated.
The clothes on this site are smaller than normal sizing
The top was a little smaller than I wanted and the dress previously ordered was also small in fit. I’m not sure I’ll order again.
Buyer Beware!This company is a SCAM
Oh boy, why didn't I think to research this business before I ordered?? I have had the same exact experience as others here did. The dress didn't look anything like it was pictured or described. Return policy is a joke. Learned my lesson for sure. It will go in the donation pile.
Because there isn’t a less than 1 star…
Because there isn’t a less than 1 star rating. Item received not remotely represented by item advertised online. All around poor quality. Refund policy is a scam. AVOID. Reported to BBB.
Beware of doing business with this company
Thinking this was an actual brick and mortar store in South Carolina I ordered 2 items. After receipt of the items today one didn't fit. I followed instructions to receive a refund and find out how to return item. Turns out, this company is Chinese, will only offers 25% of purchase price and let me keep unusable item or store credit, OR ship back to them for estimated$25-$72 fees for transport and custom clearance fees.. Very "Scammy" company. Will not do business again with them and highly doubt I will receive the 25% cash back. Be aware and don't be a sucker like I was.
Cassandra Elegant Midi???
I ordered a Cassandra Elegent Women’s Midi for $69.95. The video made the dress look amazing. What I received was a sad, poorly constructed garment. I, like so many, trusted that this was a real store here in the states. I should have read the reviews. I should have read the reviews. I SHOULD HAVE READ THE REVIEWS! Do not buy from this company.
Deceptive Return Policy
I ordered a dress for a special occasion. I thought I had plenty of time (2+weeks) for it to arrive. It arrived the day after I needed it. It came from overseas. I ordered size small, but it is huge! I emailed customer service & was told I can send it back, but must pay shipping, which is estimated to be more than I paid for the dress, or keep it & order another, and pay shipping, estimated to be from $9.99 to $24.99. The website states "a 30-Day Money Back Guarantee
At Charleston Boutique, we believe in your satisfaction. Enjoy our 30-day return policy for peace of mind!" I now know they don't care.
Charleston Boutique Is Fraudulent
I finally received my cheaply made boho dress and orthopedic Sandles on Wednesday, August 13, 2025, from overseas! The boho dress doesn't fit properly, and there is nothing orthopedic about the cheaply made Sandles!!!!
Charleston Boutique is nothing but a front for overseas cheap merchandise!
The thieves running the scam business want you to believe that they are in Charleston, South Carolina but they are far from the USA!!!
I am going to do everything I can to get this fraudulent overseas business shut down!!! Scum of the earth!!!
DO NOT ORDER FROM CHARLESTON BOUTIQUE!!!!!
Had I the opportunity to give ZERO…
Had I the opportunity to give ZERO stars, I would. I placed my first order on August 2. Tomorrow is August 20 and still no delivery in sight. I assumed the items I ordered were in stock in a brick and mortar store in Charleston, SC. They seem to be coming (eventually!) directly from CHINA! By the time they arrive, they will be out of season.
BEWARE!
I clearly didn’t do my homework with this purchase. The dress I ordered was poorly constructed and of fabric so inferior, it looked like a shower curtain. These items are only returnable if they are mailed to China and the cost of doing that almost equals the cost of the item. You can get up to a 40% refund, but only if you are a persistent and hard bargainer. After multiple emails, I finally got the promise of a 40% refund only to be told that their credit processing equipment was not working. This is clearly a scam. Do not purchase anything from this company.
Worst experience I have ever had
Worst experience I have ever had. I ordered two dresses and they sent me3. Billed me $165. The dresses did not fit and were sooo cheaply made. To send them back to china would cost $110. They would not give me a local address of their company. No phone no.’s to talk to. Do not trust them. It is a scam.

Return to China at $100/per item
The company is awful. China based product. I ordered 4 dresses and none fit me. The waist of the dress was across my chest and I'm only 5'3" tall. There wasn't enough material for the dress. And the material is an very bad polyester.
It took almost a month to receive the dresses.
They don't want the items returned. They want to give me store credit.
Do not shop here. By far, my worst online shopping experience.
Return fees quoted at
$25-$55 in transport charges
$28-$72 in customs clearance
The dresses were about $50-$60.
A scam. Stay away.
I ordered a dress, the website then showed a lower price but when I clicked on it, it added an additional dress of the exact one I had just bought. I immediately contacted their customer service who told me nothing could be done but I could return the dress. When I tried to return the additional dress, they told me the charges would be more than the cost of the dress. Stay away from this place.
Another China fronted store: Stay Away
Just received my order from Charleston Boutique. This dress was available at a lower price at Shein and other China fronted stores. I chose Charleston Boutique thinking it was a USA store even though it cost more. Did not realize the scam this store is until I tried to return it for poor quality and fit. Learned that this would involve customs charges, tariffs, etc. Joke is on me. Will do my homework next time I buy on line from a store I am not familiar with.
