My experiences with DDS are generally not great. They took away most of the leotard designs I liked best (the Mariia Lara was one, and also general cap sleeves or 3/4 sleeve low-V's that look good on broad-shouldered adults.). Everything is too frilly or lacy, or made for teenagers and not flattering. When I order, the orders take a while to get here, and then I usually have to return half, which is expensive & time consuming & the refund is not quick either. This time I ordered shoes from Capezio- I've gotten the Juliet leather adult shoe many times before, it's my go-to for class. However, the sizing is DRAMATICALLY inconsistent. Which means I have to order about 3 pairs just to get one that fits right. I wish you'd stock the narrow in this style. But this time, one of the pairs arrived literally two different sizes. One of the shoes is tight on a foot, while the other shoe fits well. What am I supposed to do with that?? So that means another $10 and 30 mins or more spent in returning it. I honestly wish you'd just have a physical store (I live in Seattle) - I'd happily drive there and try on shoes and leo's. But frankly your company has helped put out of business some of the independent dance supply stores around the country - so there is no other option.
Also, i feel you don't do enough to note when an item runs big or small. I had to return 2 suffolk leotards b/c they were bigger than any large I have ever tried. I wish I'd just known from the beginning. Also your discount structures are confusing and require bigger purchases than I necessarily want to make. I'd rather just have a straightforward 15% discount across the board or whatever. And also, carry better leotards. The Motionwear Pinch-front Deep-V, 3/4 sleeves, high cut leg was a phenomenal style (in the silkskyn. NOT the raglan/princess one), officially called "3/4 Sleeve Pinch Front V-Back High Cut Leotard", and if you could talk them into making a bunch for you in dark colors, I'd buy that many times over. And I'm sure other adults would too.
