City chic have a new returns policy that’s ridiculous, $9.95 to return any online purchase when most of their stock and all shoes are sold online only. The shoes are not always the same sizing so it costs me $9.95 to try them on! As it is there are few plus size retailers and I do not love anything they have enough to buy a thing again knowing I will have to pay to return it, before this you could return to the store.

Bra straps are just too short – I purchased 2 bras from city chic after losing a bit of weight I decided to purchase new back criss cross bras, I am so disappointed not in The service at the store and the cup is ok but the straps, they are so short, does a little bit of elastic cost that much. It is impossible to criss cross the straps, I had to add more Elastic strap to the… Read more
bra to make them wearable. I’m a medium at the store so I’m wondering how a more curvier girls get on with these bras
Corrupt – Absolutely disgusting and corrupt behaviour. Always check your payment card for over charges and always check online before you purchase in store online is cheaper and when you complain prices get altered and they are not sale items. Show details
An amazing Dress – The dress was beautiful, lined with satin. The designer thought of everything with in sewn tape on the inside breast area for any accidental slips. Falls perfectly on me, colour amazing, a recommended addition to any wardrobe. Show details · 1
Best sports bras – Great fitting sports bras. They have a front closure with a zip and clip closure for extra safety. Holds in well. Great quality and nice colours. Got mine on clearance for $30 each. Show details
It’s perfect, love them so much – I recently purchased 2 pairs of platforms in size 11 wide fit, omg they are perfect and just complete my outfits, I don’t know how I have lived without City Chic, my next purchase will be a beautiful dress and another pair of shoes, thank you City Chic for supplying us with beautiful shoes and clothing!!

I went into City Chic Penrith today with my 17 year old daughter looking for a formal dress. We had searched other stores, in person and online, with no success. On walking into City Chic, my daughter was unconvinced, but within a minute Joyce had ask to help us, I told her what we were after, she found a suitable dress and had her in a change… Read more
room. Joyce then found a suitable bra for the dress, and we had a winning outfit. It was a beautiful colour and the fabric felt lovely. The bras were well made and comfortable.
Joyce explained payment options using afterpay, and helped me navigate using it instore (I had only ever used it online). And at no point made me feel tech-incompetant.
Joyce went above and beyond for us today, which we really appreciated. She made my overtired and overwhelmed daughter feel so comfortable. I would recommend City Chic in Penrith to anyone.
The store at Macarthur Square always has helpful and knowledgeable staff there. It always a joy to go to that store. They helped me order a beautiful mocha satin dress in my size for a wedding and it came the next day. Thankyou to the girls there Show details

I used to love shopping with City Chic. The sizing was well done and always easy. However these days I have noticed that even though I am the same size and shape their sizing has gone all over the place. I'm now an 18 in some items, a 22 in others. There is no consistency anymore. Top it off the products have just become more and more cliche with… Read more
generic and overdone styles that really do nothing for someone's figure any more. It's been a real let down lately. The only thing I have to give them points for is that I find the quality of the items to be above average. Not great, but well above average.
I enjoy shopping in store instead of on line. The staff are always pleasant and helpful. I am just not observant enough and get home to find I’ve not received the full discount on some marked down items. It’s generally only $10 an item but disappointing all the same.
If I could give a zero I would, when I returned a garment that did not fit me, I went into one of their stores and was given a gift card instead of a refund, I thought this was the norm for this store to my detriment as I should have received a refund. They are now holding my money hostage as I am between sizes and do not fit into their clothing… Read more
sizes, I would literally have to spend more money to alter the garments. Never Again. Worst Shopping Experience ever would not recommend, I am now stuck with a Gift Card for a large amount $171.95 to be exact which is not a small amount. The clothing is not my style and the quality of the fabric is extremely cheap. The Garments purchased were not final sales.

said that they are now made longer will not be shopping there again and jeans advertised as mid rise is no way mid rise they go up to my bellybutton should be lower
Curvy and tall gal here - CC is a staple in my wardrobe! I’m currently obsessed with their oversized tees, plus I will only buy my jeans and lingerie from CC. They even cater to my size 12 feet! This is genuinely always my first stop when shopping for everything from comfy basics, workwear, or that special occasion dress. Thanks for making me feel seen!
Hi there, Thanks to City Chic now that I'm a mature woman whose no longer the slender version of herself, I have found that when I need something beautiful to wear, 'I'll shop City Chic' and know I'm wearing something special and feel wonderful knowing I'm wearing quality !!

Thankyou Vicki. I'm am so greateful for the time you gave me this morning. Although you had to multitask at another level. We got my size sorted. I'll be back to see you in 8 weeks So lucky to have Staff with the best Customer Service skills. Caroline Show details
Today a staff member went above and beyond to assist me with an afterpay compatibility issue with my phone and with setting up zippay as an alternative. Sana showed great patience and a highly personable attitude as we navigated a significant technical hurdle and as a result I walked out of the store happy I was able to purchase my item. Show details
I have bought two dresses. Paid for shipping. Received two dresses that weren’t the ones I have purchased. Contacted customer service, it took them over two weeks to initiate the refund. I had a surgery so it did take me few days to ship the dresses that were sent incorrectly but it doesn’t justify the delay on the refund since they were the ones… Read more
that didn’t have the dresses I ordered available and sent me the wrong ones. I feel this is a scam for people to end up with dresses they haven’t ordered. I still haven’t received the refund.
City chic sizing – The sizing has done down hill, i never had a problem buying online, but now everything i buy i have to take back to store, the sizes are no longer true sizes and the quality for the price has gone down hill aswell, no more city chic for me, disappointing
No longer worth it – Their staff are lovely and I always have a good time in store. However their products have become average at best and no longer suit bodies like mine. I'm tired of buying things because they look amazing then getting it and realising it fits nothing like shown and my apron belly hangs out. I know some people like that but it's not for me and I'm… Read more
tired of not seeing bodies of different types shown in a store that is meant to be for the bigger girls. It's no longer inclusive and it's not worth it any more.
Thank You to the City Chic Customer Service Team!!! – I was in a panic as I'd ordered shoes for my wedding and was so worried they wouldn't arrive in time. The customer service team were fantastic. They expedited the delivery to store and arrived in time for my special day. They were responsive, polite and a pleasure to deal with. Thank you again team - you were amazing!!!!

Very bad customer service – Tried purchasing 3 x dresses & a $100 gift card today online. Their payment system will not work & no one in their "customer service" team even care. It is obviously too hard for them. Not impressed. Will have to go elsewhere.
Disappointed City Chic has changed – So disappointed....the quality is not there and the returns policy is not like other companies you can buy from that want you to be 100% happy with your purchase - eg Portmans or Forever New. Even Shein will give you a no questions asked refund. I wont buy again.......
Amazing Service – My sister, my 2 Nieces and myself went into City Chic today at the Hyperdome store, we are all bigger girls, the three girls working in there today made us feel so good about ourselves, they could not have made our shopping experience any greater than they did. They were happy kind helpful and their customer service was anazing. So we would like… Read more · 1

Rubbish – City chic not how they use to be clothing quality is terrible, especially their basic tanks I’ve bought heaps lately material is not thick it’s thin and cheap and made in Bangladesh! Customer service is a joke make false promises and try and suck you in with a voucher when a item is faulty or you’ve been misled and the voucher has a minimum spend of $150 so they make more money!!! Please people beware and always use PayPal Show details

Shoe size change – I order and wear alot of city chic clothing and especially shoes as they are a wider fit then normal which suits me perfectly. Also means I can actually wear nice up to date modern shoes for work or out and suit any occasion. I couldn't even tell you how many pairs of Cc shoes I own. My last 2 purchases, (same sizes of course) one pair I wear… Read more
daily to work and love, the second pair are far too tight and seem a tad shorter in length, they are a boot so maybe they need to be worn in, but nope they just hurt. Have just done another order of clothes, with 1 pair of shoes, same size as always, and the exact same thing AGAIN. They feel far too tight and just like my last purchase, so dissappinted in the shoe change recently. Now I'm left with 2 pairs of shoes that don't fit and probably won't be purchasing shoes from CC again unfortunately.
Best customer service and clothes that fit curvy girls – Excellent customer service from Joy at City Chic Helensvale. Great store , nicely set up, plenty of stock. Joy was friendly and helpful finding me something nice to wear for a special occasion . Show details
Zero rating – Was offered $20 off first purchase of $150.00 I spent $157.00 Buyer beware. It was impossible to use the discount code on the first purchase. I complained several times only to be given the brush off each time except I was told to make another purchase, where they promise me it’s now working. Yeah right, I think it’s a rip off scam and they… Read more
they will never give me the discount. I am currently waiting on my delivery but based on the many reviews here I may as well give up on the promised time. I’ve had to pay postage. I even told them i will be reporting it to the owner and the Ombudsman. They couldn’t care less. This company must be going broke to give such appalling customer care.
