Do you ship internationally?
Yes, there is a flat rate international shipping charge of $25.00 per order. We ship anywhere that UPS can ship.

How will my order be shipped?
We use UPS as our shipper. After you receive your shipping confirmation/tracking information, you can track your order at (www.ups.com). UPS does not deliver to post office boxes, so please include a physical street address. Orders are shipped Monday-Friday. Expedited orders include business days only (M-F). For example, an order placed after 3 pm (EST) on Friday for which overnight delivery is requested will be shipped on Monday for delivery the following morning.

If I request an expedited shipping method, when does my order have to be received in order to ship on the same day?
Expedited orders received by 2 p.m. EST are guaranteed to ship on the same day. Orders shipped using ground service typically ship within 1-2 business days.

I saw a Tail item I liked but the store didn't have it in my size. What can I do?

I received a Tail item as a gift but it's the wrong size. How can I exchange it?
Ask the gift buyer where they purchased the item. Contact the place of purchase for information regarding their exchange policy.

What styles do you carry in larger sizes?
Most of our sizes run XS-XL and 2-18 (size 20 and XXL are available in specific styles). If your store does not carry your size in an item, please ask about their special order policy. You may also check back here as we continually update availability.

We strive to keep our fit consistent and use many of our most successful styles and fabrics from season to season.

Do I have to pay sales tax on Internet orders?
As is the case with all e-commerce sites, it depends on your location and the states in which the retailer has a presence. The shopping cart will automatically calculate and apply sales tax where necessary.
