Tips for Buying Clothes Online in India: Size, Fabric and Returns

Online shopping is convenient, but you cannot touch the fabric or try the fit. These habits help you avoid disappointment.

1. Use the size chart, not the label

Measure yourself and compare the numbers with the size chart. Our sizing guide explains how.

2. Check fabric and care

Read the composition. Cotton, rayon and georgette behave differently, so look at what suits your weather and routine.

3. Look at all the photos

Zoom in on details such as stitching, print scale and the neckline. Check the model's height and the size she is wearing.

4. Read the description carefully

Look at the length, sleeve type, lining and what is included. Some sets come with a dupatta and some do not.

5. Understand delivery and returns

Check delivery times and the return window before you pay. Keep tags and packaging intact until you are sure of the fit.

6. Pick the payment that suits you

UPI, cards, net banking and cash on delivery are common options. Prefer secure, trusted gateways.

7. Order festive outfits early

Allow time for delivery, alterations and exchange.

8. Start with a small order

If you are new to a store, try one or two pieces, see how the fit and quality feel, and then reorder.
