Dancing Leopard Anmeldelser 

If you think you’re buying from the old DL- things have changed! I did not agree to china delivery and quality

This company is not what it used to be.

I’ve had many items of clothing from the ‘old’ Dancing Leopard - all great quality and worth the higher price tag.

The lower prices should have been a massive red flag, instead I thought I was getting a bargain. I have kept only one thing of four that I ordered. The sizes are all off, the quality is poor and although they were upfront that their logistics were being provided by SHEIN, it wasn’t made clear that the products were now being shipped from china and would take longer to arrive.

I note in their responses to other poor reviews they keep stating that the products are ‘still designed in the uk’ - that may be the case but it’s a rather disingenuous response when the products are now made in china which they never used to be (one of my old items states ‘made in India’)

I understand the company has been in some difficulties which is regrettable and I would have been sad to see it close, but this is not the right way forwards - you have lost a long term in customer in me, as I’m sure you have in many other too. I hope to see you return to your original glory in the future.

Have quite a few items from dancing leopard that I love. I noticed my recent order came from shein. Very disappointed. If I wanted Shein clothes I would order them , I’d rather pay more for better quality lasting pieces.
I have the Harley skirt in black it’s a classic that I wear time and time again so I purchased the Harley silver - totally different skirt that I won’t be keeping .

I need to write on here because I am really impressed with the quality. After reading some of the reviews I was dubious. I am really quite fussy so I feel it should be voiced that I personally think the quality is good and is a per the photos you see! Okay it comes through Shein as a courier but to me the quality is really good!

A long time Dancing Leopard fan here with many a dress in the wardrobe! Like a few other people I ordered a dress, noticed it was a lot cheaper than other times I’ve ordered but thought I’d bagged a clearance bargain perfect for an upcoming wedding. But sadly it’s not the case, delivery took 14 days, so over the 5-8days after despatch as mentioned, which ultimately the dress didn’t arrive in time for when I needed it but that’s on me - could have ordered earlier but with my past experience with DL everything was smooth so I didn’t think! Quality-wise it’s probably in line with the £17 pricing, the thought that has previously gone into dresses just doesn’t seem to be there, the zip is snaggy, the material is a lower quality feel and the lining is only up top, is loose and folds on itself so you can see wrinkles in it, the darts on the dress don’t cinch in the right places and one is a good inch higher than the other side (maybe great if you’ve got a wonky pair??) Even down to the labels inside - sounds small, there used to be clear consideration on the material and placement so they wouldn’t be itchy or show and that’s not the case here. I’d say it’s on par with a dress you’d get from Shein or a cheap high street but it’s no where near what I’ve come to expect from Dancing Leopard. I did however take an old DL dress to the wedding to wear instead - so at least I’ve got my back catalogue!

I’m hoping they make a comeback and will keep an eye out to see if reviews change but for now I wouldn’t recommend if you were after the same DL quality as previous years.

So basically for all those like myself, who've always loved Dancing Leopard, it does not exist anymore! Since their "relaunch" earlier this year, it is basically Shein, but worse quality. I ordered a bikini top a few weeks ago, as the bikinis I've ordered from Dancing leopard in the past, have always been my favourites. Fab fit and beautiful quality. After 9 days and I hadn't heard anything, I contacted customer services, which is when the dissapointment began. I was reluctantly informed that the orders now come from China and that they use the same company as Shein. My parcel arrived (2 weeks after ordering) in Shein packaging, and as I feared, the bikini top is absolutely nothing like anything from the former Dancing leopard. It's poor quality and a ridiculous fit. Baggy across the back and barely covers your nipples at the front. If I'd wanted to buy a bikini from Shein, I would have done, but I didn't, so ordered from Dancing leopard and still got some cheap tat from China! This company is now disingenuous and a total scam. Insinuating it's still Dancing leopard, when it couldn't be anything further from it.
It's all very well the nice lady replying on here under the 1*reviews, but at the end of the day she herself works for a disingenuous company and is being paid to shaft people, so take anything she has to say, with a pinch of salt. She knows exactly what's going on! I'm just glad I didn't spend a lot of money with them, as others have mentioned, they make it as difficult as possible for you to return.. As well as having the audacity to charge you!
I'll be reporting to trading standards this afternoon.
Don't get scammed out of your hard earned money people!!!

Used to love Dancing Leopard for their quality, so this was really disappointing. After months of the store being closed, I found out they now manufacture and dispatch from China.

My order arrived in a SHEIN bag, which immediately raised concerns about sourcing and ethics.

The top itself was also very small for the size and felt cheaply made — nothing like the quality they used to have.

I won’t be purchasing again.

Avoid!! Just awful and not the same as it used to be. It now comes from China / Shein - delivery took almost 3 weeks. Quality is very poor and have to return the items via an archaic system. Never again!

I absolutely loved the original Dancing Leopard! Great quality, fantastic design.

I just received my order and am quite shocked by poor design, stitching quality and misalignment of the pieces.

Please don’t bring shame to original company and stop selling under the name as this is clearly not the same clothing brand.

Cheap. Tacky and frankly Disgusting with misleading advertisement

Previously a customer and always loved the quality of the clothes. Ordered 3 dresses which have arrived and are very poor quality. After looking at reviews on Facebook it seems that the company was sold. The quality of clothes is equivalent to SHEIN, which is fine but not when you’re expecting more. Will not be ordering again. You have to pay for returns too and takes up to 25 days for refund - avoid!

I have been a long standing customer of dancing leopard! I love their clothes! So I was so happy to see that they were back! DL has always been my go to!! I ordered 2 dresses for a wedding and also the blaze jumpsuit which I have previously bought in every colour! I noticed the pricing was so much cheaper and then once I ordered I realised it was coming from China, naturally I started to worry thinking the quality is not going to be what I’m used to! Turned out I am very happy! The delivery arrived in 6 days and the quality was great. I compared my blaze jumpsuit to my other ones and there is no difference! Just half the price! I will definitely carry on ordering from DL! Don’t listen to the other reviews! The quality is great, yes delivery takes a little longer but in my opinion it’s worth the wait! Thank you DL ❤️

It used to be such a lovely brand, but after their “comeback” it’s absolutely terrible. I ordered a dress and the quality is awful. The sizing is off as well — I honestly don’t know what body type it’s designed for.

Delivery took two weeks, and I had no idea it would be coming from China now 😭

The return process is a joke too — they ask you to include a note inside the parcel with your full name, email address, order number, and the items you’re returning. Of course, you also have to pay for the return yourself, and who knows how long it will take to get a refund.

Such a frustration. I had very high expectations for the new Dancing Leopard.

Will never order anything ever again. Did not realise it is now based in China. Ordered something 3 weeks ago and still not arrived. Awful now, such a shame as i used to love.

What has happened to Dancing Leopard??? 😭 my all time favourite clothing brand. I have a wardrobe full of their gorgeous dresses. Was made up when they relaunched and did a big order.
Sooooo disappointed. Came in Shein packaging. The quality is absolutely awful. Which a shame.
Prices are now lower but for the awful quality they are still too high,
Such a shame that this has happened to such a gorgeous company. Won’t be ordering again despite being a long time loyal customer

Terrible. All shipped from china and delivery takes ages. Order placed nearly 2 weeks ago and still not received. Fraudulent company. Avoid!! Would give less stars if I could!

Unfortunately, Dancing Leopard is under new management and are using Shein for fulfilment. Although the prices have been reduced it is reflected in the poor quality of the clothing. I ended up returning 4 out of 5 items and will not be ordering again. The quality of the fabrics, the stitching and the sizing have gone down hill. It is such a shame as DL were my go to for dresses and knitwear. I am sure they will gain a new following but unfortunately they will lose a loyal customer base.

I’m a bit confused. I’ve ordered from Dancing Leopard in the past and have been in their shop in Ibiza. I made an order this week and noticed the prices were lower, then I see my parcel is coming from China and on the shipping info of the website it says “fulfilled by Shein”. Has Dancing Leopard been sold to Shein?! I’ll update when my parcel arrives to comment if the dress is the same quality.

Amazing 10/10 customer service! Sorted my issue out promptly and smoothly- very impressed 😊✨️

Terrible experience and as 1st time buyer I will NEVER purchase from this company! Parcel never delivered, lost by the courier apparently which is understandably frustrating for everyone at this time of year but whomever I spoke with through emails was a cheeky inconsiderate cow who clearly was not interested in helping me or looking into the order! Absolutely no regard for customers and keeping them!VERY VERY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICES! Dont waste your hard earned money on this site! there are better websites out there with similar clothing!

I dealt with Victoria regarding a return. She was an absolute pleasure to deal with and so helpful. Amazing customer service like this will definitely make me come back to this company, it’s been the most friendliest I’ve ever experienced
