About The Fashion Bible

The Fashion Bible is a British online womenswear retailer selling dresses, knitwear and going-out pieces, and a The Fashion Bible discount code is typically spent on one or two items for a specific weekend. Buying from a smaller independent retailer is different from buying from a chain, and the differences are mostly in your favour if you know about them.

Stock is small and rarely comes back

An independent buys in modest quantities, so a size that is gone is usually gone for good rather than waiting on a restock. The upside is that the range turns over quickly and you are less likely to see the same dress on three other people. The practical consequence is that hesitating over an item is how it disappears, and that a wishlist is more useful than a plan to come back next week.

Read the model information, not just the photograph

Smaller retailers usually state the height of the model and the size she is wearing, and that is the most useful line on the page. A dress photographed on someone of five foot nine in a size eight tells you very little about how it falls on a different frame until you pair it with the garment measurements. Compare the bust, waist and length figures against something in your wardrobe that fits.

Faux leather and knit need different care

Faux leather cannot be washed, ironed or tumble dried: it is wiped, and it cracks permanently at a fold, so it hangs rather than folds. Knitwear goes the other way and must be folded, because hanging stretches the shoulders. Neither instruction is optional, and both are the difference between a piece lasting a season and lasting years.

Dispatch cut-offs for a Friday night

A small warehouse has a stated cut-off time for same-day dispatch and does not pick at weekends. If something is needed for Saturday, order early in the week and choose the tracked service rather than hoping the standard option is quick. Returns take a few days to be received and processed at this scale.

Using a The Fashion Bible discount code

Enter the code in the basket and check that the total moves. Codes here commonly leave out new arrivals and anything already in the sale, and there is often a minimum spend. Returns need tags attached and no make-up or tan on the fabric.
