Frequently Asked Questions

How long does shipping take from Beginning Boutique?

Beginning Boutique ships across Australia with both standard and express options. Standard delivery typically takes 1–6 business days and express takes 1–3 business days. Orders placed before 3:30pm on business days are dispatched the same day. Once your order has been shipped you'll receive a tracking number so you can follow it all the way to your door.

What dress style is most flattering?

The most flattering dress is the one that fits well at the waist — regardless of your size or shape. Wrap dresses are widely considered one of the most universally flattering styles because they cinch at the natural waist and the V-neckline creates length. A-line silhouettes work well for most body types by skimming through the hips. Ruched styles are forgiving and create definition without being restrictive. The best starting point is always fit — a well-fitting dress in any silhouette will look better than a technically "flattering" style that doesn't fit properly.

What is Beginning Boutique's return policy?

We accept returns on full-price items within 30 days of delivery, provided they are unworn, unwashed and in original condition with tags attached. exclusions — final sale items, swimwear, earrings, intimates and gift cards. To start a return, head to our returns page and follow the steps. We recommend checking sizing carefully before ordering using the size guide on each product page — if you're between sizes, our team is happy to help before you buy.

How do I wash and care for a dress at home?

It depends on the fabric. Most jersey, ribbed knit and cotton dresses can be machine washed on a gentle cycle in cold water. Satin, chiffon and delicate fabrics should be hand washed or dry cleaned — machine washing can pull threads, distort the shape or strip the sheen. Always check the care label first. For anything with embellishment (sequins, beading, lace), hand wash only and lay flat to dry rather than hanging, as the weight of water can stretch the fabric. Turning dresses inside out before washing helps preserve colour and surface details.

Does Beginning Boutique restock sold-out dresses?

Some styles are restocked and some are not — it depends on the style and fabric availability. The best way to stay across restocks is to use the back-in-stock notification on the product page, which will email you as soon as a sold-out size comes back. Popular styles and colours tend to sell out and restock quickly, so signing up for the notification is the most reliable way to secure your size. If a style has been out of stock for an extended period, it's likely discontinued.
