Fantastic experience from initial viewing online, to getting measured in store and then receiving my garments. Joyce and her team are very professional and made the process very easy. The shop is amazing with ready made clothing and accessories but wanted something fitted to my exact size which was perfect. Thanks

I visited the Aphrique store in Luton and ordered a tailor-made suit. It arrived [in-store] 2-weeks later as agreed, then they mailed it to my home address free of charge the same day. Its a perfect fit and the tailoring is precise and clean. Great clothing and excellent service!!

I got a beautiful dress from the shop. As a premenopausal woman, this dress gave me a lot of confidence. I got so many compliments, and it was such a buzz . I truly feel beautiful in this dress. It is fun and comfortable to wear. I am so pleased!

I was looking for an embroidered shirt for an event that was just three days away. Emailed the store to find out about sizing and delivery, and got a call within 15min, with advice on size, and assurance I?d have the shirt the next day. Received my shirt today, less than 24hours after placing the order. Great quality shirt, and top notch service overall!

Unfortunately as a previous review if you want a refund they completely ignore emails and chats. My order arrived after my party despite next day (and 5 days to spare) delivery and payment. Would never buy from here again.

Thanks for the poor service. Never received follow-ups via email. I ordered a ready-to-ship item that was supposed to arrive already. Ordered it since Feb. 18. Standard delivery said within 2-3 days. I followed-up w/ the possibility of expediting my shipping (b/c the site says we can reach out and ask for that). Nothing. Haven't heard anything since Feb. 20. Very disappointed. I already was skeptical of this site. Thought it'd be nice to support black bizs but not all of them are worthy of our support. The other reviews must be fake, too.Now that I'm looking at it, the price I paid for my item differs from what I see now. I paid a lot more than what was expected. You will refund me my money - the full $32.46. Hopefully, this public review will grab your attention, since you don't want to respond to email.UPDATE: (3/11/23)Received my item on 3/6 and it wasn't what I even ordered. Different colors and oversized!! Already sent that item back. Better off getting something similar from a non-black owned biz. Smh, wanted to support something authentic. I better get my money back.

My children and I visited the Luton store for a kids painting session. However, once we were there I was really taken by their gorgeous collection. The staff are absolutely amazing. They are all really warm, welcoming and passionate about their African heritage which really adds to the whole vibe of the shop. The painting session was even African history themed. This was a fun and educational visit!

Met these guys in Stratford and absolutely loved the designs and how versatile the dresses were. The patterns are unique and I always get a love of compliments wearing my dress (which btw has pockets!!). Would 100% recommend

Reported them to Financial Ombudsman and Trading Standards, see below for details, exact copy paste from my report - stay away from them."Hi,I would like to report company JTAphrique for violating Consumer Rights Act 2015. They have been reluctant to process my refund of 80 gbp for no real reason - the reason they gave me is that they are not familiar how to process refunds when the payment is made with Klarna.After putting a lot of pressure on them and cancelling my last instalment with Klarna of aprox. 60 gbp, they agreed to process that on their end, but just that final payment. So I managed to not pay the 60 gbp (which I wouldn't have paid anyway because Klarna blocks it if there is a problem reported, which I did report a problem), but I'm still 20 gbp short as the total refund should be 80 gbp.I contacted them again and they are ignoring, just like they did in the past when I tried to get the refund processed first time.The reason I insist on taking action against them is that they are not only violating consumers law, but they also think that is OK and can get away with it. This is not about the 20 gbp they owe me, it's about an idea, the idea of stealing money from people and getting away with it. And stopping this is more valuable than 20 gbp.Please look into it as this is not OK in this day and age and we, the consumers have nowhere else to turn to put this straight.Thank you,StefanPlease note they only processed in their system the fact that Klarna put on hold the final payment because I reported the problem. If it wasn't for that, I don't think they would have done anything. So effectively, they didn't send me any money back, they just cancelled the last payment of 60 gbp. And now they are not willing to process the 20 gbp refund, difference to 80 gbp. As stated before, it's not about the 20 gbp, it's about their attitude of stealing money from customers and thinking they can get away with it."

She went above and beyond for us to get my daughter's desired dress, she offered an alternative when there was a delay in getting it from abroad and eventually got it delivered.JT Aphrique certainly has a lifelong customer in my household and we recommend them wholeheartedly.
