anyone heard of "free people" clothing
Permalink Closed

i got one of their catalogs in the mail yesterday and i have never heard of them before.  some of their clothes seem cute, but the pics in the catalog are shot  kind of weird so you can't really see half the items they are trying to sell.  arer they new or have they been around for a while?  i found the web site, so here are a few items that i kind of liked. 


the pantsthe top


Sheer Batiste Ribbon Waist Blouse


Short Sleeve Knot Top


Aphrodite Studded Sandal

Oh yeah, they've been around for a while.  Urban Outfitters carries a lot of their clothings as well.  I have several pieces - they have really cute stuff.  I know a lot other girls on here have experience w/them as well.

Yeah, they've been around for awhile - I know UO and Nordstrom sell their stuff, but I think they have more on their own website.  They have some adorable stuff.

I think they're cute, especially the tops, if maybe a little overpriced for the quality. But definitely not too bad. I usually find them at department stores - I'd forgotten Urban has them too...

if you have a loehman's or macy's they carry the brand too.  I've tried the stuff on but never bought it because I'm never in love with their pieces that i find in the stores.

Did you enter the luckybreaks? I think they had a give away in the past few months. I got a catalog too & figured that's where it came from. I their clothes. Another reason for me to drop weight - to be happy to buy their stuff at those sometimes really silly prices. I love that the catalog is shot in New orleans & surrounding areas. coolness.

I believe that antro, free people and UO are all parts of the same company.

Yeah, they are all part of UO and each line has it's own store. There aren't that many Free People stores, but there is one in King of Prussia. Free People is also carried by at Urban and Anthro (I think), as well as other department stores.

Yes!  Have loved their stuff for years but prices have creeped up just like every other brand the past couple of years.  I know the Bloomingdale's by me has a whole "Free People" department (section with a specialist).  Also, for a better price - you can find their stuff at Loehmann's too. 


Lots of details and finishing touches.

Free People clothes are cute but I agree the prices have risen over the years. Their stuff is also sold at some online clothing boutiques in addition to Macy's, Bloomies, U0, and the Free People store of course. I also saw some Free People stuff last year at my local TJ Maxx.

i love the things they have in their line! really unique and lots of details, but i always have such hesitation to pay full price for anything because quality can be so hit or miss. i often feel like the quality of the stuff is just really poor (unfinished/poorly constructed) for such high prices...
