That's what I love about this forum...there's always differing opinions. :^) Actually, this thread was not intended to be a negative thread...stuff just kind of came out of the woodwork. My original question, which had to do with the site revamp and whether the clothes are also revamped,&nbsp;got lost in the discussion. Oh well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144780 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 22:19:24 +0000 Anonymous 1144780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think that you should inform Loft because a few comments do not indicate the experiences of everyone who shops there or everyone on this forum. I like Loft a lot for certain types of clothes. I have broad shoulders and they are one of the few stores that have softer crepe and knit blazers. I love a lot of their jackets. I also like a lot of their skirts, which work well for me. There is another negative thread today on Loft's&nbsp;sister store, Ann Taylor and personally, I have to say I love their crepe&nbsp;blouses. From Loft, I have purchased t shirts that are too thin, and do have problems with that, but in the past few years I've seen the same thing with the Gap, Target and other retailers. I think it's good to take back items that have not worked and also to write it up personally in the comments about specific items that you have purchased.&nbsp;As well, if it doesn't work for you, don't shop there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144646 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 20:03:24 +0000 Gigi 1144646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I feel like I need to e-mail Loft and tell them to check out this thread. They have some serious issues! A lot of people apparently have dropped them like a hot potato because of quality problems. A lower price point is fine to compete in the industry, but when your quality is so bad that a lot of people quit buying, you're shooting yourself in the foot. </p> <p>What do people think of my letting Loft know about this thread? Should I do it or no? It would be nice if it would get them to clean up their act. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144626 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 19:40:05 +0000 Susie 1144626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got several casual summer knit tops last year that were decent quality for the price, if purchased on sale. And I got 2 pairs of leggings for lounge wear that I've worn a bunch for fall/winter and those are quite nice. </p> <p>I hadn't noticed a different look but I don't shop there too often and I don't know that I've ever been on the website.&nbsp;There is a store in the shopping center closest to me so I might have to stop in.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144606 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 19:17:11 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1144606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, they used to be a go to for me, but recently everything is so darned thin - weird thing is that I've got an Ann Taylor factory store nearby and the quality / price ratio is better than either AT or Loft. So I just shop there instead.</p> <p>The new styling is a little too arty for me - when the models stand so you can't see the features of the clothes they're modeling, what's the point? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144568 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 18:16:19 +0000 Peri 1144568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've never been a big Loft fan due to poor quality issues, but usually I can find a few casual tops I like to get me through the summer. Since Fall I have not liked the (lack of) color pallet, so I'm hoping for some brighter color for summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144468 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 16:34:12 +0000 Thistle 1144468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't checked them out for some time - not since I bought a dress you could all but see through and the store was absolutely nasty about taking&nbsp;the return. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144439 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 16:11:56 +0000 Kristin L 1144439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't checked out their site in a while. I wasn't wild about the earlier layout, so I hope this one is an improvement.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144352 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 14:55:40 +0000 cuffcat 1144352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loft used to be a store that I loved and shopped frequently. With the advent of the tissue thin t-shirts, they've seem to incorporate this lack of quality into all of their clothes. I still go in occasionally, in fact, I purchased a 100% cotton tunic sweater right after Christmas. The sweater is becoming a favorite. Hoping they change and focus on quality fabrics. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144340 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 14:47:49 +0000 Lisa 1144340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also gave up on ATL because of quality and the high amount of ruffles everything had.&nbsp; They used to be a go to store for me, but I haven't been to one in over a year now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144319 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 14:35:56 +0000 April 1144319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very intrigued by that knit button-down! &nbsp;And yes, the look of the site&nbsp;has definitely been freshened up. &nbsp;I too had pretty much given up on Loft but will give them another look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144272 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 13:47:01 +0000 Anonymous 1144272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've not been in the Loft for ages. Thank you for the heads up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144271 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 13:43:58 +0000 viva 1144271@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I picked up a cute white jacket at Loft after the holidays -- was very surprised to be tempted there. I think they are definitely revamping their line as well as the look of the stores. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144267 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 13:31:11 +0000 JayS 1144267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't been happy with Loft's quality of late. Sweaters purchased recently have lost shape after a couple of washings..I hand wash cold, lay flat to dry.<br />&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144247 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 12:18:29 +0000 MRL 1144247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gigi, I haven't shopped at Loft lately but now I am curious. I hope that they did revamp the look, Found it tiring after awhile. A few years ago they seemed to have ruffles on everything. None the less I do have a few pieces from Loft that I still like and have kept, so I need to check this out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-look-at-loft#post-1144195 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 07:41:13 +0000 Gigi 1144195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Has anyone been on the Loft site recently? I went there tonight and found that they are completely revamping their style, at least as regards the models and presentation. The new models and poses look almost Zara-esque or a bit J. Crew-ish. I really liked it...I found the old style too saccharine. (I wish Macy's would update their look as well...I find the whole fan-blowing-the-model's-hair thing so outdated.)</p> <p>Question: Do you think that the Loft clothing itself is also changing style, or is it just that it has a different "feel" because of the new models? And maybe they are pairing things differently (i.e., less classic combinations). I found it hard to tell if the clothes are the same thing or if it was the presentation that made them seem different.</p> <p>P.S. For all of you who hate crisp button-downs, they have a knit button-down now:&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.loft.com/cotton-knit-button-down-shirt/331325?colorExplode=false&amp;skuId=15375100&amp;catid=cat640046&amp;productPageType=search&amp;defaultColor=1531">http://www.loft.com/cotton-kni.....;catid=cat</a>. </p>
