Dude, don't buy loft ever again.

Their stuff has gone to complete shit.

Last year I bought a few things and had to return one shirt because the stitching was coming loose after a few wear.

This spring I bought two shirts, one that I love. I treat the favorite one like fine china and the detail is already coming apart after one season. The other top is just a t shirt and it's already pilled.

I bought two tops (identical shirt in different colors) there today. I figured they were on clearance for $15 each so who cares if they only last a season. I washed one according to the instructions, in a lingerie bag even, and the lace is completely jacked at the collar.

Fuck that. They're going back and I'm never shopping there again EVEN THOUGH it's one of two places I can go and actually shop my fucking size. Argh.

[kristie]

Yeah, I gave up on them last year. Their prices are insane for their crap quality. Granted I know you can get everything on sale, but still.

[daisybuchannan]

Yeah, I've been less than impressed with the quality from anything there. I hate it when you find something cute, only to have it fall apart so quickly.

[agnes]

Meh.

I haven't had any problems.

[bab]

I think it is extremely hit or miss but I agree that the quality has more or less gone to shit.

[HiC]

I love their t-shirts.

[luvvy]

Hmm. This is good to know. I was planning on going there for some shirts.

[underwaterrhymes]

I gave up on them a long time ago for other reasons, so this is actually somewhat reassuring for me.

I used to love them.

[icechalk]

I agree. Used to wear a lot from there. Now every shirt I buy ends up w a hole after a few washes (and I wash on delicate and hang dry).

[eb777888]

Used to be my favorite, I haven't bought anything from there in a couple of years. I still look but never even like anything anymore. The quality has always been bad. Or maybe it's just that things NEVER washed well from there, and I hang dry my nice tanks and t-shirts.

I'm not happy with the quality of any of my usual stores. It's getting frustrating.

Seriously. I am sort of satisfied with Ann Taylor but have to wait until stuff is on super super clearance. Ugh.

Anyone have experience with three dots brand? I almost got some basic tops from Norstrom Rack by that name today. The logo is literally "...".

[pugz]

yeah all the tops I like have detailing on them but that stuff doesn't hold up well. I try to buy shirts without lace, flowers, doodads, etc.

Was it ever not shit? Lol

[ElizabethBennet]

I got some cardigans from AE recently, and usually I'm pleased with their quality for the price, but on these the sleeves stretched out so badly within about 20 minutes of wear.

I'm trying to find things that will last more than one season

Me too.

I got WAY better stuff at Nordstrom last week for the same as I'd pay at the Loft.  no exaggeration.  I'm done there as well after the way their stuff fell apart and shrunk last year.

[joshlyman]

I love LOFT and haven't had these issues. I never buy full price though, so I think it is good quality for what I pay for it.

Ok good! I tried on the softest sweatshirt/tee thing and wanted it, but it was $30 for something that looked sort of Hanes-esque. I may go back for it.

Do it! I have far too many expensive tee and sweat shirts that are pj-esque

I've over Loft. It's a sad sad day when my Target clothes are better quality than Loft and Gap.
