HMD shopping experience

What has your experience been with buying during hand me Doen events?

Personally, it was my first time shopping secondhand directly from them. I purchased a relatively inexpensive top but it came stained.

This shocked me because they state they don’t accept stained items but this was an obvious mark on the front of the shirt.

I emailed them and they gave me an option to return or reimbursement for dry cleaning with a detailed receipt. I chose to return bc I don’t want to go out of my way to dry clean with no guarantee it would come out. I might have tried hand washing but I don’t feel like I should have to. I’ve been waiting 4 days for them to send me a shipping label now.

JESSA TOP size help

I really want to purchase the Jessa top in the alderbrook plaid, but would love some sizing input from anyone who owns it or has tried it on.

Alderbrook Plaid

Really debating whether I should purchase the plaided print from Doen, but wondering if it’s something that’ll remain classic and timeless. What do you guys think? I’m on the fence. It’s so cute though.

Print fading?

I love the Amalia top, however after my first wash of it - by hand, in cold water, then laid out to dry- the print faded in several small spots. Has anyone experienced this? I was already looking to buy the Maltina dress because I love the Amalia top so much, but now I’m concerned there is a printing production/quality control issue.

Saying goodbye to two of these beauties on depop 👛

edit: SOLD! 👛 Listed an Esperance dress in like-new condition (size S) and a Sabina skirt (size L) on my depop: dianachamomile! The skirt has some minor discoloration from regular wear on waistband but in otherwise excellent condition. More photos of all care labels in the listing- all authentic and bought directly from dôen. The skirt was my first ever dôen piece but is no longer my size! 🤍 considering selling my Winnie dress too if anyone is interested lmk (Mods feel free to delete if not allowed)

They’ve read the sheer criticism 🤓

I see a lot of feedback here and at I online retailers discussing how sheer the dresses are, and sometimes it’s a reason people return their doen purchases.

Just thought it was funny that they call out this dress design as “intentionally sheer,” like it irks them that people think it’s a design flaw.

How many buttons on your Henri top?

2 of mine have 6, suddenly the one I got from HMD has 8…I have no idea what’s going on, I feel like I got a fake

Tip to check authenticity

I was replying to a post that was deleted but just wanted to share a tip that's helped me check authenticity before.

On poshmark, you can filter Doen listings by availability and choose **Sold**. In the search bar, enter the name of the item. You may also want to filter by color.

From here, I click through some past listings and look at the tags. Tags can vary by year and also retailer ( for example, net a porter exclusives), but for popular items there's generally an identifiable pattern.

It's not perfect of course, but I found it to be a good starting place and a way to ease some worries before 😊
