This stuff is hideous, shapeless and makes those models look much bigger than what they are.

The colors are nice, the cuts are awful. I would love an actual high quality preppy brand that would mix in a little color without being loud Lilly Pulitzer prints. I think there are a lot of older women looking for attractive oxford type liberty print style blouses that are cut well with a little stretch and don’t gap in the bust- Boden used to have these with some fun whimsical prints but now the quality is gone. i wish Marimekko would collaborate with Frank and Eileen and somehow make it affordable.

I hate how they size things

Genuinely interested in your build? Tall?

DP. I like the jeans at Chicos Off the Rack. I'm 5'7", 140, and pear shaped. I usually wear one of their smaller sizes (.5) and find the waist, hip/thighs, and length to be just right. Their patterned sweaters and statement necklaces aren't really my taste, but I have such a difficult time finding pants I like I was giddy when I first bought jeans from them a couple years ago. Also, my sister just talked me in to trying one of their t-shirts. It has sleeves almost to the elbow so I thought it would be really matronly, but it fits well and looks nice.

I don't think their clothes are the best quality, but every single thing I've bought recently from other similar stores (Talbots, Ann Taylor, Loft, Gap, etc.) is just as bad. I either expect it to pill quickly or I take care to wash on delicate and hang to dry.

I think YT = “white.” It’s not an affectionate nickname.

How is this even a question?

It’s old lady clothing.

Ffs

How interesting that nothing has changed since 2013. 55 and obese by most of your standards, I recently bought a couple of t-shirts there but am not a fan of the matchy-matchy style.

I buy Chico's few monochromatic offerings for travel. The rest is way too bright for me. Their traveler's maxi and midi dresses in a thinner, knit fabric are quite elegant. I have them in teal, black and a spring green. I also have some monochromatic knit sweaters and jackets. They really are comfortable for flying and easy to pack. If they toned down their color schemes, I would buy more.

It's crappy fast fashion for the perimenopausal and beyond. It says: I've given up.
