Anthro - I've been eyeing if FOREVER and was waiting for it to go on sale, but I don't know if that's EVER going to happen. Could someone give a review.  I'm only worried about it making me look pregnant!

I think this was discussed when this top first appeared at Anthro - the general consenus was that if you had a med-large chest, the pleats pull apart.  FWIW, I saw the exact same top at Charlotte Russe last week, if you happen to have one near you it's probably cheaper there.

I tried this on in deep purple/maroon color this past Friday.  While it was gorgeous...I found it EXTREMELY low cut.  I'm small on top...but this was ridiculous...I didn't even have to bend over to risk the nip-slip.  IF I thought I could get the straps shortened I would have bought it.  BTW...it was on sale at my Anthro store. HTH

Was it fitted in the waist area or pretty flowy?  Oh, and would you mind sharing the price and location of that store??

Oooh, oooh, oooh...I'm interested!  Was it really very similiar?  I wonder if they have it at the one near me...hope it wasn't on the sale rack (then it might be gone already).

i am pretty sure it is on sale for either 24.99 or 29.99- i don't remember the exact price. to be honest, i only think that shirt fits well if you have a very small chest- otherwise the pleats pull apart and it creates a uni-boob. it's cute in theory but i really don't love the shirt and think there are tons of better things out there.

i agree.  i loved this shirt when it first came out and was very disappointed when i tried it on and got the "uniboob" effect.  not cute on me....

I bought and then returned it. I originally bought the black one and it seemed fine but i returned it for the white one (because i figured i have enough black and not enough white) and the white one's accordian pleats pulled outwardly causing obvious nippage and the uniboob (sounds funny) situation happenend with me as well and i'm a 34b.

Actually, it was the same exact top.  Wasn't on the sale rack - Charlotte Russe is kind of like Forever 21, so they don't really do too many sales.  Here's a link to their website:

I was looking through this week's Target Ad & thought it was similar to the Anthro top posted:


Its on sale for $10. HTHs!
