Privacy Policy:
Lucy Corsetry (“Lucy Corsetry“) operates lucycorsetry.com and may operate other websites. It is Lucy Corsetry’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, including WordPress blogs, this Website collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Lucy Corsetry’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Lucy Corsetry’s visitors use the site. From time to time, Lucy Corsetry may publish non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g. a light-hearted compilation of search terms, or statistics like number of views per month.
This website, like all WordPress blogs, also automatically collects information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on lucycorsetry.com blogs/sites. Through the use of contact forms, users are knowingly, voluntarily and manually providing personal information to Lucy Corsetry (read more below).
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Lucy Corsetry’s websites choose to interact with Lucy Corsetry in ways that require Lucy Corsetry to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Lucy Corsetry gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who leave a comment at lucycorsetry.com to provide a username, email address, and if desired a website URL. Those who engage in transactions/ purchases with Lucy Corsetry are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions (e.g. measurements, shipping address, etc). In each case, Lucy Corsetry collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Lucy Corsetry. Lucy Corsetry does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities (e.g. if you do not provide an email with your comment, you will not get notifications of replies).
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Lucy Corsetry discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Lucy Corsetry’s behalf or to provide services available at Lucy Corsetry’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. (For instance, if you purchase a Timeless Trends/ Black Iris corset through lucycorsetry.com, your shipping address must be disclosed to the Timeless Trends drop-shipping department in order for you to receive your order – please consult Timeless Trends’ privacy policy if you have any questions regarding this; Lucy Corsetry is not responsible for Timeless Trends’ privacy policy or TOS.) Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Lucy Corsetry’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them.
In terms of the transfer of funds specifically; Lucy Corsetry accepts transactions via Paypal and Stripe currently. Paypal and Stripe assign a unique ID number for each transaction and does not give the sender or recipient personal financial information (name of bank/ credit union or bank numbers, credit card numbers, etc are not provided), so Lucy Corsetry does not have access to this financial information from any user who makes transactions through Paypal. Paypal does however provide other identifying information such as the customer’s name, email, and shipping address – see the paragraph above for how this information is used. Lucy Corsetry will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Lucy Corsetry discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Lucy Corsetry believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Lucy Corsetry, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Lucy Corsetry website and have supplied your email address to receive newsletters, Lucy Corsetry may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Lucy Corsetry posts and products. If you send us a request (for example via email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Lucy Corsetry takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Off the Rack Corset sales — specific Terms:
Quality as described
For all corsets sold on this site, the nature, quality, and amount of wear (if a gently used corset) is as described in the individual listings. If you find that the corset is not as described, please take a picture or video of the discrepancy before trying on or wearing the corset.
Damage in Transit: if the corset has been damaged in shipment, please take a photo or video of the parcel damage and subsequent damage to the product. Corsets are shipped with insurance, and each corset is checked for quality control before it’s put into the box. If damage by the courier can be proven before the corset is opened and worn, this may be eligible for reimbursement by the courier. However if the corset has signs of wear and use before evidence of damage is shown, this USPS insurance is voided, and the customer may be held responsible.
Wrong color, fabric, or style: corsets are usually shipped in transparent plastic sleeves. If you open the courier box and find that your corset is the wrong color, fabric, or style, please do not open the plastic sleeve to inspect the corset, but keep it in its original packaging. Please contact Lucy and you will be issued a pre-paid shipping label to ship your corset back, and we will ship out the correct corset to you at no extra charge. Monetary reimbursement to the customer for this error is not guaranteed.
Mislabeled or incorrect size: if you received the correct corset style and fabric, but you suspect it may be the incorrect size before trying it on, please use a measuring tape and lay it along the waist tape of the corset; the corset size should match the inches along both sides of the corset at the waistline. Please note that variations of up to half an inch are normal for OTR, and please also note that the front modesty placket is not included in this measurement. If your corset is mislabeled or the wrong size, please contact Lucy and you will be issued a pre-paid shipping label to ship your corset back, and we will ship out the correct corset to you at no extra charge. Monetary reimbursement to the customer for this error is not guaranteed.
30 Day Return Policy
For the Timeless Trends/ Black Iris/ Lucia Corsetti brand corsets (exclusive of Special Orders “Any Fabric!” listings), Lucy Corsetry allows a 30 day return and exchange window from the date of purchase (amended Dec 15 2018 to match Timeless Trends’ new policies). You may gently try on the corset (always over a shirt or liner), and return or exchange the corset provided that the corset arrives to the Timeless Trends returns department within 30 days.
Please note that as of December 2019, Timeless Trends no longer accepts the return of accessories (including liners, storage bags, garter belts, modesty panels, and extra bundles of laces). These are considered Final Sale, and will be destroyed or discarded if found in the return mailer. Refund of these items will not be issued. Please keep these accessories to use with other corsets, if desired. Please also note that all Special Orders (“Any Fabric!” listings) are Final Sale and are not eligible for exchange or return. If a customer attempts to force a return of a Special Order item by shipping it back against permission, we have the right to refuse the parcel at the customer’s expense, and refund will still not be issued.
For the Glamorous Corset and True Corset brand corsets, Lucy Corsetry allows a 30 day return and exchange window from the date of purchase. You may gently try on the corset (always over a shirt or liner), and return or exchange the corset provided that the corset arrives to the correct shipping department within 30 days. Your GC brand corset should be shipped back in its original dustbag.
Corsets should be returned in sellable condition, i.e. without marks, stains, glitter, pet hair, odor, moisture, dander, bent steel bones, wrinkling, etc. Examples of eligible reasons for returning or exchanging the corset: you don’t like the color you chose, you need a different size, you need a different cut/length of corset. If your corset is shown to be tried on against the skin, eligibility of return may be voided. If evidence is shown that the corset made contact with any genital area or fluids thereof, eligibility of return is immediately voided.
For consignment and clearance items marked final sale (e.g. Vollers, Axfords, Rebel Madness, and gently used items), there are no exchanges or refunds.
To initiate an exchange or return, email Lucy Corsetry with your order number. If your return is eligible, you will receive an RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) form, address and further instructions. If you would like to return your corset for exchange or refund, you are responsible for ensuring that the corset is delivered in a timely manner back to the warehouse and that postage is properly paid for.
For corset exchanges within the continental US: Lucy Corsetry will pay for the postage of the first replacement corset shipped to you. If you require multiple exchanges over the 30 day window, Lucy Corsetry asks that you provide shipping in both directions.
For corset exchanges outside of the US: Lucy Corsetry will cover up to $14 USD for the postage of the first replacement corset to you. If you require multiple exchanges over the 30 day window, Lucy Corsetry asks that you provide shipping in both directions.
For corset returns (where an exchange is not desired and a refund is requested), Lucy Corsetry pledges a full refund of the purchase price of the corset (i.e. if you paid $75 for a corset, you will receive $75. If you paid $119 for a longline corset, you will receive $119). However, Lucy Corsetry is not responsible for compensating any shipping fees, as the courier takes and keeps this portion for their services. Lucy Corsetry does not charge a restocking fee! This is different to the policies of other corset shops, as they may not refund the full amount if you return your corset.
Lifetime Guarantee (Exclusive to Timeless Trends brand)
After the 30-day return period is over, your corset cannot be returned for refund, but in accordance with Timeless Trends’ lifetime guarantee, should your corset wear out or break under normal use, you can have your corset exchanged for the same size and style corset. Please note that some wear over time is normal, so details such as the occasional loose thread or small loop of thread, wrinkling, a bit of stretching, etc. are not covered under warranty – but if something definitively fails in the corset such that it affects the function of the corset (i.e. the busk breaks, or a seam rips, or a grommet pulls out), then your corset is eligible for exchange. We at Lucy Corsetry and Timeless Trends understand that there may not be a clear-cut line as to what is covered, so if you have any doubt do not hesitate to contact us. Please note that we reserve the right to deny a refund if it is discovered that the corset has been deliberately tampered with.
Please note that Glamorous Corset, Rebel Madness, and True Corset items sold on this site do not have a Lifetime Guarantee; they have a limited 1 year warranty. Please contact Lucy for more details.
The Off The Rack Corset Sales specific terms herein are only applicable to the new OTR corsets. Lucy Corsetry does not accept exchanges or returns on any corsets sold through other means, including gently used corsets, one-off sample corsets, consignment corsets or any new custom corsets (because it was created to fit you specifically!). However if you purchased a handmade custom corset from Lucy Corsetry and it somehow breaks (the busk breaks, a seam rips, a grommet pops), contact Lucy Corsetry as it may be repairable.

Hello Lucy, I’m very interested in purchasing a couple of your corsets. I’m from Bahrain and my question is how long does it take from the time of purchase to receiving the shipment? Thanks, I hope to hear from you soon.
Hello Sarah, thanks for the comment! The shipment to Bahrain is a flat rate $56 USD and takes 2-3 weeks for delivery.
Hi Lucy. Do you deliver in Mexico?
Hi Rosalia, yes we do ship to Mexico! :)
Hi Lucy,
Do you deliver in Ireland?
Hi Thais, yes I’ve shipped to Ireland before! Just fill in your address in checkout in the shop and it will tell you the shipping fee.
Hi Lucy, i noticed that you are located in Newmarket Ontario, i actually live nearby is it possible for me to visit and pick out a corset in person? Please let me know.
Hello Jade, sorry this isn’t possible. The corsets in my shop are mostly dropshipped from the US, I have very very little stock here in Canada, so there isn’t a large selection to try on. Also, I’m renting out of a place that doesn’t allow me to function as a brick and mortar studio as they don’t want to be stuck with having to pay extra liability insurance for patrons coming onto the property. At this point my business is 100% online, sorry for the inconvenience!
Hi Lucy how long does it take to ship to upstate new york
Hi Ella, the shipping time depends on the brand you choose. For the Timeless Trends brand corsets, these take about 7-10 days for delivery because as of January 2020 they’re all made to order now. The GC brand corsets will take 1-2 business days, and the Artemis corsets will take 2-3 business days for delivery!
