About Curve Ladies
Is Curve Ladies sustainable?
No, they likely are not. They don’t state anything on their site regarding efforts in sustainability, or ways that they give back to the community.

Where is Curve Ladies located?
According to an email from customer service and their Facebook page, they are located in the United States. Their business address is 1569 Thomas Street, Chicago Lawn, IL, United States, Illinois. However, according to the Page Transparency section of their Facebook page, their business page is run by managers located in China. This leads me to belive they are most likely based there.
Where does Curve Ladies ship from?
According to my tracking information, my order was originally shipped from overseas (likely China). I ended up receiving my order from a distribution center in California (United States).
Where are Curve Ladies’s clothes made?
All of the items in my order were made in China.

Curve Ladies Review and Order Details
I ordered the below items on 6/19/2023 to my address in North Carolina (United States). I paid a total of $91.97 to FASHCHIC Ltd (service@nfashionltd.com) via PayPal. The charge appears on my credit card statement as “PAYPAL *FABSHOP LTD”. – View Order Confirmation
1) Cotton Vintage Linen Plus-Size Casual Pants
- Color, Size, and Cost: Black / XL / $25.99
- Country: Made in China
- Material: 100% Cotton
Expectation: They are VERY different from what I was expecting in terms of overall appearance. On the model, the cuffs are more formfitting around the ankle. Also, the material looks wildly different; it looks much crinklier and thinner.
Quality: In my opinion, the quality is bad but wearable. See my Quality Comparison & Rating Chart to know my current quality-rating standards.
Fit: I ordered based on the size guide provided, and they fit well. View my Body Measurements for size reference.
Keep or Return: I would return these Curve Ladies pants.
These feel and look like paper. They are ABSOLUTELY not worth the $26.
2) Button Solid-Color Loose Long-Sleeve Blouse
- Color, Size, and Cost: Orange / S / $27.99
- Country: Made in China
- Material: Different materials are listed in two places:
- Product page- Polyester
- Care label- 100% Cotton
Expectation: It is VERY different from what I was expecting in terms of overall appearance. The color is completely different, and the texture looks completely different. There is really nothing about this top that matches the product images other than the fact that it has 3 buttons.
Quality: In my opinion, the quality is bad but wearable. See my Quality Comparison & Rating Chart to know my current quality-rating standards.
Fit: I ordered based on the size guide provided, and it fits well. View my Body Measurements for size reference.
Keep or Return: I would return this Curve Ladies top.
It is very thin and lightweight, in a cheaply-made way. It is too expensive for how poor the quality is.
3) Round-Neck Ruffled-Sleeves Floral Dress
- Color, Size, and Cost: Yellow / M / $37.99
- Country: Made in China
- Material: 100% Polyester
Expectation: It is VERY different from what I was expecting in terms of overall appearance. The pattern intensity and coloring are completely different in person. Also, the scoop neck and hem of the skirt fit/hang differently.
Quality: In my opinion, the quality is mediocre. See my Quality Comparison & Rating Chart to know my current quality-rating standards.
Fit: I ordered based on the size guide provided, and it fits well. View my Body Measurements for size reference.
Keep or Return: I would return this Curve Ladies dress.
It is much uglier in person. It fits more like a ‘house on an 1800s prairie’ than a flowy layered dress. The quality is also subpar and is NOT worth the price.

Support Experience
- They were pretty slow to respond, and I had to send a follow-up email. I had to ask SIX times for the return address and wait a whole two weeks before getting it.
- They also offered me the option to accept a partial refund and keep the items. They initially offered a 20% refund, then upped the amount to 35%, then 50% before giving the return address.
- Once they received my return package, they tried to deduct $10 from my refund for the shipping cost, despite the fact that I got free shipping on the order. (I discuss this more in the following sections)

Do I Recommend This Shop?
Based on my experience, they are a legitimate company (with a caveat). I paid for my items, received them within the estimated time frame, successfully completed a return, and received a full refund. I would like to very importantly point out that while I eventually got the refund, it was NOT easy. I got free shipping on my initial order, and AFTER I already mailed the items back to them, they tried to deduct a $10 shipping fee from my refund. I had to argue with them over email for several days, demand a full refund, and threaten them with a claim before they agreed to the original refund amount.
With that being said, I personally would not shop here again.
Although the clothing is generally affordable, and arrived within a reasonable time, ALL THREE of my items do not look like their product images. The quality looks way better in the product images, the coloring is quite a bit off in person, and the material looks different compared to the product images. Additionally, the prices are too expensive for how low quality the clothing is, and they falsely advertise the material composition (among other things). Their customer service is also subpar, as I had to ask for the return address SIX times and wait two weeks to get it, and per the above paragraph, they tried to deduct money from my refund.
To wrap up this review, regardless of my experience, be sure to read as many customer reviews as possible. If you found this post helpful in your search for curveladies.com clothing reviews, please consider sharing and commenting (via Reddit) below. Have a great day!
