Anthro Review including spring items
Permalink Closed

This is what I tried on in the store:


 ingalls button-upThis was very fitted, if you have larger than a B cup I would size up.  It was cute corset style, but a button popped off while I was trying to close it.


  blue poppy blouseI loved this on the site, but kinda eh about it in real life. 


 giverny strapless dressDidn't get to try on, all sizes but 14 were sold out.  Very sweet in real life, lovely 70's shades of mocha, nude pink, and mauve.


 


mermaid skirtI liked the fit & color of this skirt(a bright periwinkle) but the fabric looked like it would pill easily.


sunshine coast blouseI loved the dropped seam on the shoulders of this on the site, but wasn't sure about the print.  I loved it in real life, especially layered under a sweater vest. It runs super small, and they had to do a store search for me in a bigger size.  I just received it today, and even two sizes up it still fits odd.  I'm wavering back & forth over keeping it.


I saw/tried on several other items but didn't want to make the longest Anthro post ever

I was considering buying this skirt:


mermaid skirt


Do you think the material was cheap?  How was the quality of the skirt other than the potentially pilly fabric?

I tried this on last weekend - and I do think it looks (and feels) cheap. I was considering it until I tried it on, and then it just didn't feel right. The cut is okay, but the fabric just feels bleh.



This one was much cuter, though it's about $30 more:



Also this is adorable in person (I know it was just posted in ST too):

The material almost felt like 70's polyester knit pant material, with a bit of rough texture.  I would wait for that one to go on sale.


I agree with Altgirl, the deeper violet blue skirt was better made.  I'm lemming the red&white jacket too because of sunshinegirl!

Thank you both for letting me know about that skirt.  I'm sad it's cheap because it looked so cute.    But at least I can remove it from the list of the zillion things I want from Anthro for spring.
