I opened this looking for tips. I don't have much patience for Yoox - it is mainly a resource for validating odd Italian brands that I find thrifting. I love things people find there, but I would have to be in their warehouse to find anything myself! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yooxperts-help-with-searches#post-1720343 Sun, 28 Aug 2016 18:31:18 +0000 catgirl 1720343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I'm glad to know I'm not alone!&nbsp; I also find myself at a loss for descriptors when searching for certain items, like the extra long sleeved styles I posted in another thread.&nbsp; "Post-apocalyptic cabin loungewear" or "starving artist in a garret goes to the office" don't bring up a whole lot of options! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yooxperts-help-with-searches#post-1720330 Sun, 28 Aug 2016 18:06:28 +0000 Keix 1720330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, I don't think you can search on Yoox. You can only get really good at browsing filtered categories. </p> <p>I've only ordered from them once, but I did find a pair of shoes that I love (after breaking them in). Maybe I'll take another look-see.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yooxperts-help-with-searches#post-1720292 Sun, 28 Aug 2016 14:21:01 +0000 avicennia 1720292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use Yoox frequently. I agree that the search function is very limited. So like UmmLila, I narrow by size and color first to give me somewhat fewer options to look through. Then I just figure that I'm "learning" something about style as I scroll though lots of items. This has lead to being a bit more daring in what I buy. So I'm a Yoox fan, nonetheless, I'll look into Farfetch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yooxperts-help-with-searches#post-1720289 Sun, 28 Aug 2016 14:12:59 +0000 shedev 1720289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I mostly shop by brand on Yoox. And only when I have a lot of time to look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yooxperts-help-with-searches#post-1720170 Sun, 28 Aug 2016 01:06:27 +0000 Echo 1720170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Unfortunately I cannot help with Yoox, but I concur about Farfetch. They are AMAZING. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yooxperts-help-with-searches#post-1720168 Sun, 28 Aug 2016 00:58:52 +0000 tulle 1720168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was thrilled when I first found Yoox, but over time I found their site so frustrating and user-unfriendly, I abandoned it in favor of the much more customer-oriented sites like OUTNET, Gilt, Net-a-Porter and Hautelook. Even Farfetch, which sells merchandise from shops all over the world, seems to do a better job of helping potential customers find and receive their choices quickly.&nbsp; Have you tried them?&nbsp; I was looking for a silk scarf as a present for a well-dressed male friend, and Farfetch was the only place with the sort of thing I wanted. It was well displayed, and came beautifully wrapped from Europe in days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yooxperts-help-with-searches#post-1720166 Sun, 28 Aug 2016 00:58:23 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1720166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I rarely start with Yoox, but I might find myself there after starting with ShopStyle or Polyvore. If I get to Yoox, my first narrowing term is always size, so I don't get carried away liking something that won't fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yooxperts-help-with-searches#post-1720157 Sun, 28 Aug 2016 00:16:05 +0000 catgirl 1720157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know Shevia and others are experts at finding stuff on yoox.com.&nbsp; But I can't seem to narrow anything down!&nbsp; For instance, let's say I'm looking for a jacket with an asymmetric hem.&nbsp; Nothing at all comes up under "asymmetric".&nbsp; Or if I'm looking for something with "extended sleeves", what would I put into the search?&nbsp; </p> <p>I know it's probably a no-brainer, but I feel overwhelmed and underskilled in the art of the search! </p>
