I have some of the their clothes. But I really want that actually closes in the front. I commute by public transport and often have to wait at the bus stop downtown which gets cold and windy. Thanks though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topshop-quality-and-sizing#post-204518 Sun, 22 Aug 2010 17:47:19 +0000 judy 204518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Annagybe, I didn't see the other thread...but have you seen this shearling jacket? Of course, it's more then twice as much money. I haven't seen it in person but this reviewer has:</p> <p> <a href="http://www.bryanboy.com/bryanboy_le_superstar_fab/2010/08/vince-shearling-jacket-fall-winter-2010.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.bryanboy.com/bryanb.....-2010.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topshop-quality-and-sizing#post-204405 Sun, 22 Aug 2010 07:38:10 +0000 Ele 204405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Topshop isn't an off-price brand, they started moving away from that strategy several years ago, and now see themselves as a fashion-led label with prices to match. I remember reading an interview with Philip Green (the owner) at the time in which he said something like "People aren't interested in price wars anymore- I don't see us competing with Primark and H&amp;M and Zara for the lowest cost" So yes, anyone expecting "cheap fashion" from Topshop is going to be disappointed. </p> <p>As for quality, it is hit and miss. Such a big company has a huge range of suppliers and manufacturers, so some items will be excellent and some stuff not so much. I recognize that label from my days working for a manufacturer who supplied Topshop, and it's for their nicer-quality stuff. </p> <p>Like Dawn says, sizing is tts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topshop-quality-and-sizing#post-204376 Sun, 22 Aug 2010 02:35:24 +0000 bj1111 204376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>wow...that seems really steep for an off-price brand. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topshop-quality-and-sizing#post-204304 Sat, 21 Aug 2010 19:55:10 +0000 Dawn 204304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that Topshop's quality is okay but certainly is not as high as the price I would expect from the price bracket, if that makes sense. I have found that their clothes run true to size as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topshop-quality-and-sizing#post-204301 Sat, 21 Aug 2010 19:46:21 +0000 annagybe 204301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Julie found me this jacket on my 10K jacket thread.</p> <p><a href="http://us.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&#038;viewAllFlag=&#038;catalogId=33060&#038;storeId=13052&#038;categoryId=208623&#038;parent_category_rn=208580&#038;productId=1871667&#038;langId=-1&#038;intcmpid=W_HERO_HP_US_WK51_SHEEPSKIN_FLYING_JACKET" rel="nofollow">http://us.topshop.com/webapp/w.....ING_JACKET</a></p> <p>It's the Sheepskin Flying Jacket.</p> <p>I never ordered from TopShop so I'm unsure of their sizing and quality. Hoping some of the UK residents can advise.<br /> Thanks. </p>
