Your wallet is about to be hit by a fashion faux pas so gauche it could cost you a refund.
Returning that trendy new outfit just got a whole lot trickier after a major retailer quietly updated its policy, now charging a restocking fee for any item deemed "fashion forward." If you bought that wide-leg jumpsuit or asymmetrical sweater last week thinking you could change your mind, think again. Industry insiders confirm this is a direct backlash against the "try-on haul" trend, where shoppers buy bulk for events and return everything the next day. The new 15% to 25% fee applies to any return that isn't a basic, timeless staple—meaning your impulse buy is now a gamble that could drain your bank account with zero courtesy fees allowed.
