The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission is suing Mosaic brands in Federal Court today for several hundred thousand allegedly late online orders.
Mosaic Brands owns a number of popular brands, including Noni B, Rivers, Katies, Rockmans, Millers and W. Lane.
The ACCC said over 26 per cent of items were dispatched at least 20 days, in some cases 40 days, after the purchase date.
The consumer watchdog said Mosaic brands advertised timeframes generally between two to 17 business days.
