Vixen by Micheline Pitt — Attraction in Burbank

Its a good thing that I sew, as this is the 2nd skirt I’ve purchased bearing the name Micheline Pitt that was a huge disappointment. While her concepts are really cool, her merchandise is 2nd rate at best! I mean has she never heard of quality control?

I previously bought her Deadly Dames box pleated Venus flytrap skirt, but had to take it apart and repleat it to compinsate for the extremely poor pattern matching. After that nightmare experience I should have known better.

Still the heart wants what the heart wants, so I reluctantly purchased this Vixen Ben Cooper monster mask skirt, only to have it arive damage ( there are snags in the fabric in the ruching along the waist clear a result of the manufacturing process ).

I also feel a need to point out that the black of the waistband clearly dosesn’t match the black panels in the skirt.

I have contact her company regarding this issue. Unfortunately they haven’t bothered to reply. I advise you save your money for better quality goods and reliable customer service!

I gave them another chance. Unfortunately it didn’t go well. I have really had it with the incompetence of this company!!!

Every single time I have purchased something from Micheline Pitt it has been damaged, late, or very poorly constructed.

This time they sent me the wrong size.

I purchased this dress and paid for express shipping so I would have it for NEW YEARS Eve!

It actually arrived on time, but I ordered a small and they sent me an extra small. So it doesn't bloody fit!!!

What is wrong with these people? Micheline Pitt's company has the worst quality control; seriously this is not ok.

Shame on the staff at Vixen for ruining my holiday.

A message to the feckless Ms. Pitt:

Your Thoughtless response is riddled with misinformation, exaggeration, and out right lies.

I mentioned the Deadly Dames Skirt in the original review because it was designed by you and has your actually name on it!

As to my Previous purchases, you refunded me because the skirt was severely damaged and arrived late ( the day before I left for vacation ) and WE agreed it was an undue hardship for me to return it as I live in a major metropolitan area and work nights.

As a business owner it is your responsibility to fix mistakes made by your company and eat that cost.

Furthermore it is unprofessional to besmirch customer's name/reputations with such mendacity. I have never stolen a thing in my life.

The lies you posted as a response on Yelp are easily point out as I posted a screenshot of the invoice. If you bother to look you would see I paid full price for the dress because I purchased it on the 25th. You processed the order on the 26th...

I also paid for 2 day delivery, knowing you're not reliable. It took 5 days to get the dress and you still sent me the wrong merchandise!

The simple truth is you have screwed me over multiple time because you run your shop very poorly and have not properly set into place a system for quality control.

Would Be Customers should be ward about such failures.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

It’s luck I paid for this purchase via PayPal, Ms.Pitt was such a nightmare to deal with that I ended up filing a claim, it took a few day, but it was decided in my favor!

One’s best bet is to avoid purchasing anything from Vixen/Micheline Pitt, but if you fin yourself having to do so, pay her via PayPal as they will protect you from...

After several years of a very bad marriage, depression, and a lifetime of abuse I made a point to present myself the way I wanted to be perceived. I started being a happier person, and those I had around me were happier. Part of that mission was finding the right look for myself, with a quality that would last.

Other companies who make "pinup" and "glamour" style dresses have started to go up in price, and down in quality. Thank God Micheline Pitt started Vixen. The fabrics are the very best quality. They have an amazing give, thick, luxurious, and are soft. Thank goodness for soft! The colors are very vibrant and STAY vibrant after washing. The quality of the sewing is fantastic. I have had pieces of Vixen for over a year now, and not one hem has come loose or out, which other brands I have come loose after one washing on super delicate and hang dry! This is one company that is definitely worth the price you pay for your garments. The size chart is very spot on as well (And the pockets on the skirts and dresses fit my galaxy 8+!). I for one will most definitely be taking a long walk to a short pier with my pugs, and be a loyal Vixen for several...

I've been a Vixen customer since 2016, and I can assure you, the customer care team has ALWAYS been exceptional. I don't have the luxury of flying out to California on a whim, being a Texan, but this brand takes absolute pride and care in their items. There have been a few hiccups as expected with any company, but they immediately resolved the issue in the most respectful and courteous way. I have always had excellent experiences in contacting customer service when I have questions. Everyone has been informative and helpful. The qualify of the dresses has been exceptional, and considering how often everything has been in rotation, everything still fits and looks practically new. I've always had compliments on the beautiful clothing. As a family who has had generations of artists and seamstress, I hope to continue to invest in a company that actually takes time to not only care for the customer, but also advocates for "sensory friendly" options on the website, and contributes back to the community. Outstanding work Team Vixen. Keep up the great work! With Love,...
