Frequently asked questions

Where are your clothes made?

Our popular strapless, halterneck, vests, and underbust corsets are handmade in our shop in Melbourne Australia. We operate sewing machines and overlockers 6 days a week to keep up with demand. Other items like pants, slips and boleros are bought in from a variety of wholesale suppliers. We are gradually expanding our in-house range to fill the shelves in our shop but until we do we suppliment what we can make so that you can find the right items to complete your outfit.

How long will it take to supply my order?

Many items are shipped directly from stock. We pack orders 5 days a week. Handmade items are made-to-order based on fabric we have on hand. In this case we try to cut within 24 hours of receiving your order and then complete the your corset and ship within 2-3 days. Our shipping provider posts within Australia in 1-5 business days, and the UK and US in 4-9 business days.

Can I pay in USD? What currencies do you accept?

We've been working to improve our service for payments and now accept payments in USD, CAD, GBP, EUR, AUD, NZD and a number of other currencies. When you visit our website your location should drive the currency display, for example, US customers will defauilt to https://www.dibobodi.com/en-us and see product in USD.

Do you ship overseas?

Yes we do! See this blog article for more info.

Why do you ask for my email address?

Email is used for shipping and queries. It is importnant to provide a legitimate email address that you do check becuase some orders are flagged as fraud and may be refunded if you don't respond to our queries. Sometimes customs will use the email address to contact you before they release your package and failure to respond can result in a return to sender. In this case we will refund the product costs but not the shipping costs we incur.

I accidentally ordered without shipping. Can I add shipping to my order?

Do you do returns or exchanges?

We encourage you to check size information carefully. We gladly accept returns or exchanges where our product is faulty or there are errors in what was shipped. Please see our returns and refunds policy

How do I lace up my corset?

Generally your corset will arrive with 2 ribbons. One ribbon should be laced across both sides of your corset at the top and the other across both sides at the bottom. Lace the top and bottom ribbons towards the middle like a shoelace and then pull the 4 ends tight and tie in a bow. See this video for instructions:
