Returns Policy

The Lair wants you to love the pieces you purchase for years to come. If you are not completely satisfied, we will provide either a refund or credit note for eligible returns requested within 14 days of delivery.

To be eligible for a return, items must be:

  • In original condition — unworn, unused, and with all original tags attached.
  • Accompanied by their original designer packaging, including undamaged dust bags and boxes.
  • Swimwear must have the protective hygiene shield intact.
  • Shoes must have unmarked soles — please try footwear on a soft, carpeted surface only.

The Lair does not accept returns on gift cards, underwear, beauty products, or candles. If you have any questions before purchasing, please contact hello@thelair.com.au.

Credit notes are valid for 3 years from the date of activation.
