Anthro new merchandise reviews
Permalink Closed

I went to Anthro today with high hopes. I tried on so much but nothing really worked out... BUT for anyone interested, here are my reviews


This dress was so cute and fit me perfectly BUT it wasn't as full length on me (like the mannequin) and hit mid-calf which bothered me. If you're tall, expect it to be tea length. It's also more purple-y in real life which bothered me


I don't really need a new dress like this, but I liked the colors. The skirts is REALLY poufy and looked too much like a 50s prom dress, but not in a good way.


My friend tried this on and it's really nothing special in person. It was just blah.


This is beautiful in person but the color would look hideous on me so I didn't try it on


I thought this was really cool, in an ugly way, but I couldn't pull it off


This was so cute but my boobs were popping out and I couldn't wear a bra, and would have needed to since it's pretty sheer


If you have a long torso, these cute tops (like most Odille tops) will be midriff.


SO cute, but my friend claimed it before I could


This was so cute and my friend talked me out of it because I have enough cutesy skirts. But I'm still thinking about it so I might go back and get it. It also comes in pink and brown at the store.


I love this but I want to wait and see if it goes on sale


My other friend got this and it's really cool and looks a vintage cowgirl belt


There was also a really cute strapless green floral sundress with a sweetheart neckline. It was cute and only $88, but they didn't have my size and it's not on the website

Ah, darn it!  I really wanted that first dress and the third dress...


On the first one, I'm 5'7", you think it will be tea-length?  The fact that it is more purple doesn't bother me...It is the perfect dress for my trip to Barbados!

Oooh, I really like the turquoise skirt and the beigish-top with the bow.  But damn long torso.  So many shirts look ridiculous on me thanks to that...I'm just going ot have to try it on anyways...  I also like the belt.  I was looking at the mint and blue floral print dress before and thought it was really pretty, but thanks for the heads up on the poufiness.  We don't have an Anthro around here and my definition of "trying things on" is generally ordering it online, waiting until it reaches my house, swearing if it doesn't fit, and then sending it back and waiting once again to see if a different size fits.  Ahhh, I wish we had more than four stores (none of which I like!) in my area!

Umm, it might be long enough. It's still a very cute dress. I was just expecting something more formal and it was actually a day dress. BUT it would be perfect for Barbados.

I actually LOVED the third dress IRL when I tried it on, but it was probably a matter of...



  • the dress' ability to accomodate my 36C chest

  • the length was actually above the knee (I'm 5' 2"...most dresses hit at the fattest part of my calves)

  • it further defined my hourglass

I've seen it look like crap on others (usually people with stick-thin figures)...so I wouldn't entirely discount it yet.
