Lilly Pulitzer is junk.

I could not start to guess how much money I have spent on LP. I think Tommy Bahama bought them and the quality is junk yet the prices are still high. We have some vintage Lilly that we still enjoy but I can’t currently bring myself to buy anything.
Is LP still a thing or is the quality effecting its popularity? |

| It's ugly and screams "look at me, I'm wearing Lilly". If that's important in your social circle, carry on. |

| It’s still a thing for many people. I buy a few pieces at the semi-annual sale but never pay full price. I still have plenty of older white label pieces that I wear. I’m in a FB group with women who go crazy for it and buy new things every time they release new prints. Too much for me but whatever floats their boat. |

| I like it, but don’t wear it much anymore because it has a time and a place. But I am 0% surprised to hear that it’s gone down in quality, like just about everything lately. |

Funny, I have recently discovered Tommy Bahama and find their quality to be quite decent for the price. I love some of their linen dresses, and also got a couple pairs of shorts there this summer. So if they bought Lilly that seems like not a bad thing.
I was in a Lilly store a couple of weeks ago and was surprised at the colors for the fall clothes - lots of dark green solids, even some black. It didn't feel as Lilly like, which wasn't a bad thing after the neon years. I don't like the neon stuff but do have a fair amount of navy solids, and some prints from years back. I wear it regularly at the beach but don't even bring it back with me to DC. I haven't bought a new piece for a couple of years so can't comment on quality changes. |

| I think the silk shirts are nice for work. The patterns can be a bit bright, but they work well with an otherwise plain outfit. I’ve only bought them from consignment stores, so not even sure that they are still sold. The ones I have are excellent quality. |

We? Affecting. Not effecting. |

| The only time I buy it anymore is to match with my dds. They'll grow up quickly and won't want to match with me. But yeah, I really don't like the new prints. And shifts aren't the best on my body type (petite with larger bust). |

I personally like this about it but I just get the shift dresses used on Poshmark. I appreciate the over the top vibe and I find it to be kind of vintage, kitschy, and fun. No way I’d pay full price though |
