RETURN PRACTICE

Ann Taylor will accept your return or exchange of unworn, unwashed merchandise by mail. Unwashed, unworn merchandise can also be returned or exchanged at any Ann Taylor location with the exception of select merchandise explicitly noted in our return policy below. Please note, we cannot accept online purchase returns at LOFT, LOFT Outlet or Ann Taylor Factory store locations.

We will credit you for returns accompanied by an original receipt made within 60 days of the purchase for the price paid either in the original form of payment or as a merchandise exchange. Returns accompanied by an original receipt made more than 60 days after the purchase will be credited for the item's current selling price either in the form of a merchandise credit* or as a merchandise exchange. One price adjustment on full-priced merchandise may be made within 7 days from the original date of purchase.

Returns without an original receipt will be credited for the item's current selling price on the date of the return, in the form of a merchandise credit. Merchandise without an original receipt with a selling price on the date of the return that is deemed Final Sale may not be returned or exchanged.

Final sale merchandise (merchandise with a .44 or .88 cent price ending) may not be returned or exchanged.

*A merchandise credit for online returns will be issued by e-mail as an E-Gift Certificate. A valid email address must be provided.Weddings & Events Returns
