I just love how the people who hate Chico's are the exact same ones recommending M.M. LeFleur for everything. MM LeFleur is cheap polyester crap, my friends!!! Like you know it's sad when they have to specifically call out when their item is cotton. That shouldn't be the exception!!!

I follow Wardrobe Oxygen because I'm her age and size. I don't love how she dresses but some of the things she says are Chico's have been surprisingly cute.

healthy is 100lbs for 5ft and 5lbs for every inch of height after so you're supposed to be 130lbs not 105

I recently wandered into a Chicos and the odor of chemicals was so overwhelming that I turned around and walked out.

This is exactly it for me! Chicos, J Jill, and Talbots make me feel old just walking in the door. Just a mental thing more than an opinion on the clothing. In the mid 90s I remember Chico’s and J Jill both having lots of really nice, natural fabrics. Last time I walked in they seemed all about the polyester and stretch.


That's every where now. I'm fine with stretch but hate 100% polyester. I just pick and choose depending on fabric and style.

Your BMI is almost two points below healthy. Are you implying that anyone in a healthy BMI range or even the higher end of underweight is plus sized?

I used to hate Chicos. I can tell I'm getting older because now I find a lot of their clothes very appealing. I know an older woman who dresses almost exclusively in Chicos and I have to admit - she always looks very polished and put together.

If you are into dowdy off colors then don’t go here.If you think English prep is for everyone stay home.
Chicos is for self assured independent women that don’t want lock step fashion

I love Chicos but they are adding a lot of crap. You need to wade through racks. Quality has gone down but not anymore thanall others,

Pricey, but cheaply made.

It’s all my late first MIL wore the last two decades of her life. Seams coming apart. Tiny holes in the fabric. Fading from a few hours outdoors on a sunny day.
