Goddess sized garments for you ('cos who's ever heard of a bony Goddess?!)

 

 

How does the sizing work?

 

The title of each listing contains the Australian size, converted from the USA sizing.  USA sizes are a little more generous than the equivalent Australian size – so, for example, an Aus 22-24 will be a US 22W.

 

Also, check the Sizing page which contains details on how to take your measurements.   

 

 

How do I work out which size I need?

 

There is a size chart in all swimwear listings – you are best to brave the tape measure and compare to the chart.  I’m more than happy to assist if you’d like to check with me about sizing or if you’d like something measured on a particular style.

 

Don’t be shy… there’s nothing that I haven’t seen (as a plus size myself I can certainly relate!)

 

 

Do you have every size and colour in every style?

 

I wish!  The reality is that most of the styles are manufactured in 12 different sizes from 14 to 36 (as well as alternate colours) and it’s impossible to stock all of them.  Most items will be the only one I have in that style/size/colour - so best not to wait if you see something you like.

 

 

Is it possible to get a different size to what is listed?

 

If you open the homepage of my eBay store and use the size links on the left hand side, you'll see what's available in your size.  If a style is not listed in the store, it's not in stock.

 

 

Can you get my size if it’s not in your store?

 

At this stage of the season it's unlikey… but if you send me a message with your requirements I will keep your enquiry on file.  I will let you know if/when one becomes available.

 

 

What if my measurements are different sizes on the top and bottom?

 

These styles are fabulous for those of us who don’t have hourglass figures!  If your measurements aren’t consistent with the size chart eg. one size up top and a few sizes different on the bottom please don’t hesitate to send me a message to work out which size would suit.

 

 

Do you have a retail shop where I can see/try on the swimwear?

 

No – I prefer the flexibility and privacy of the online store (being shackled to a counter isn’t my idea of a good time ;-).  I am unable to offer services from my private home, due to insurance limitations - please don't ask, as refusal often offends.

 

Will you have other styles available this season?

 

New styles arrive frequently - the best way to stay updated is to subscribe to my newsletter by adding me to your 'favourites'.

 

 

Can I return my purchase?

 

Items are sold as described.  I will accept returns if I have made an unintentional error in the listing.

 

 

Do you sell internationally?

 

Apologies, but no... Australian and New Zealand buyers only please.  I regret that I am unable to respond to international requests, due to time constraints.

 

 

Why are your listings 'private'?

 

I respect your privacy... not all Goddesses are happy to share their size with the world!  All 'Buy it Now' items are private - as well as auctions for more generous sizes.

 

 

What are the payment options?

 

Bank deposit (via internet transfer or over the counter at any Commonwealth branch), PayPal or Money Order.

 

 

What are the postage options?

 

I only charge the actual postage cost - Express Post or Registered Parcel Post (insured).  I am unable to offer pickup from my home, due to insurance limitations.

 

 

Do you combine postage for more than one purchase?

 

Absolutely!  Dependent on size/styles I can usually fit four swimsuits into a large satchel and only charge for actual postage cost (currently $9.90 for Express Post)

 

 

What does rubenesque mean?
