Came here from your Instagram; this is very useful. Thanks for uploading. Genuinely it feels like nowadays every brand is just charging luxury brand prices without having the quality, or previously dependable luxury brands are going down in quality. Maybe it’s because the recession, but it’s very unfortunate.

I just went to the Reformation store in London and was shocked at the quality. They are basically using premium fabrics but fast-fashion stitching. As a person who has been in fashion production industry, I would not buy their stuff at the price they are selling.

Thank you for mentioning the stitching, fabric quality and sizing accuracy! I'm having the same annoying experience with some of their pieces being too big despite ordering based on their size chart. I wish their website featured customer reviews in the product listings. The Cristina top and Provence dress look beautiful on you!

I'd love a video about the cost and practices of living with higher quality, longer lasting clothes. When I invest in expensive clothing items, I often take it the cleaner and tailor to extend its life. An added cost but means I don't buy clothes as often

I love how in depth you went! Considering buying some wedding guest dresses from their summer sale atm and this helped show the quality I’d expect :)

Could you do a vid where you show what to look for at the thrift store to ensure you’re buying quality pieces?

I love Reformation silk skirts because of the heavy fabric and soft, thin and narrow elastic waistbands. Most skirts have elastic so wide, thick and tight that they could hold a bridge up! I wish all skirts had such comfy waistbands, theirs are the best.

This is very educational and informational- I appreciate the in depth style of the way you describe the items!

since most of the issues were sizing, i'd recommend going to their boutique if you can. the staff are very helpful & chill also, i believe they truly understand their service represents the company.

This is SO helpful. Everything looks great on you. I was considering the Giorgia brocade top, in that same color, and have a similar build to you, and it was really helpful to know about the gapping in the chest area. You saved me money! The Cristina top, on the other hand, had a stunning fit and I might actually get that one.

I’m definitely noticing a trend with reformation hauls and my own experience. I’ve been shopping at Reformation since 2018. I think they do an amazing job at marketing, styling their clothing on their beautiful models, and having gorgeous photography. The reality though is that a lot of their clothing does not fit well. I have a local store that I frequent on a monthly basis. I’m up to buy more there, but I rarely get anything now because the fit is rarely right and even when something does end up fitting, I struggle to justify the price with the quality. Some of their stretchy items are so thin , it feels like Amazon quality. I think the linen and silk prices are fair, but a lot of the linen items do not fit right. I’m 5’8,slight hourglass shape, and size 2 for reference. All in all, I’m starting to conclude that the people that are up to spend higher prices for their clothes can’t even do it because the clothes don’t fit right most of the time.

Can you do a video where you explain all these terms and educate us on bias cut, French seam etc? It would be so helpful

I would love to see more content on what budgets people have. 3000 is close to 6 years of my clothing, hair, and makeup budget 😂 or three and a half years of hair, makeup, clothing, and all spending (so junk food, eating out with friends, my mom, coffee, hobbies, like everything)

thanks so much for including the sizes you bought!!

The white top and the brown looks beautiful on you!

I want to thank you for really explaining about fabrics and how things are put together. It has helped me tremendously in deciding what to buy and what to purge out of my closet. I always assumed synthetic materials were more affordable because of the source, not because they are simply bad. I have been reading up on how polyester, polyamide etc., gets absorbed by the skin and are carcinogenic. On top of that...all the pollution--not just in production, but ever time they are washed! I have a very limited budget but will seek out only natural materials from now on. Thank you again! I am learning so much!

Ive been looking at reformation stuff for years. Never actually got to purchase it, the sustainability stuff is very vague and sounds abit like greenwashing for me…. I believe their stuff are made in china, and fabric doesn’t age well according to various online research i did.. would love to know more about the brand still tho!

$3,000?!!?!! For 9 pieces?! That’s an average of $333 for each piece!

This brown lacy dress looks stunning on you 🌹

You should also do a follow up video. If you exchange the sizes/colors to see if there's consistency. I occasionally have issues where I change the size of items and find I do not fit in either size or the proportions aren't the same as before... or have still way too much or little chest space for example.

Can you please make a video of your favorite clothes 💕, love your videos btw:))

I've noticed that a lot of "high quality" sweaters from name brands that are made in China have weird seam lines on top of the shoulders. The line is supposed to be on top of the shoulders but their lines go more on the back of the shoulder which is weird

The white lace top and the black silk skirts are beautiful. The denim would look great on you in a smaller size for sure. :)

Just wondering if you ever take pieces to the tailor to have them adjusted? The Robbie set (had to be named after Margot because it’s just so her!) looked amazing on you and I would think would be simple and inexpensive to have the top tailored? It’s something I often do personally!

I’m confused. I’m new to your channel and watching this after the Club Monaco one. In that one, you said you don’t like lyocell because it’s not durable. Here you say you like it. I’d love a video where you discuss this fabric more (maybe you already made one…I’ll look!)

I love the top you’re wearing, it’s so feminine, elegant and beautiful.

I like that you discussed the quantity of the items. I wondered how much each item is.

My single brand is Everlane. I tried an Old Navy on the same amount of recycled polyester- and it seems comparable

I really think that asymmetrical pieces look great on you!

That silk dress is out of stock on reformation but Anthropologie has it in stock for all sizes

What’s a sustainable store you do recommend shopping at? Especially for sweaters

love this video- I did want to ask a quick question though; a lot of people said the silk quality of reformation sucked ie. it was thin, snags, easily damaged, etc. Did you notice anything about that?

Thanks for explaining what to look for! I think reformation is pretty hit or miss but all super expensive. Seems like that's every brand so you have to look carefully at each item

i was looking at the lindsy top to replace a mock neck tank w side ruching that i bought at target (it fit well bjt the fabric was so see through I just could not wear it to work) so im grateful its in this video! ill be looking to get this on my next paycheck after your analysis!

Love your videos Jennifer!!

Have you tried Quince or Theory??? 🧐🤔😺

love this video and feel like you’ve taught me so much abt fabrics just from one video! I’d love to see you do a video about some of the clothing you’ve made yourself 💗 and i was curious to ask why you would not keep some of the items and get them altered/hemmed instead of returning them?

Love your videos! So informative!

Thank you - I learned so much!

Can you please share with us what thrift stores you like shopping at. Thank you so much. Love love love your videos, I’m learning a lot about the art of shopping quality clothing ❤

Can you review a more affordable company whose clothes you think are actually worth the money next? 😊

Very useful on what to look for when inspecting clothes - new subbie here.

This was very lovely. I wonder if you have considered tailoring as another tool to get high quality pieces that you love to fit you perfectly.

They have their yearly summer sale (30% off sale items) right now if you’re interested in spending a bit less!

omg brown is most definitely your colour!!!! i hope you ended up keeping the brown dress

Every time I have gotten something from Ref I have been severely disappointed in the quality and sold it on poshmark right away. Never again.

I have the same issue with reformation, the waist fits but the chest gapes so bad!

Love this! All look good

thank you for sharing I’ve been lucky to find reformation at Nordstrom rack at a great price. I really love your couch can you share where it’s from?

Hi, I’m watching so much of your content and thank you for explaining so well! I wonder, isn’t it a bother that all these higher quality items can only be hand washed or dry cleaned? I don’t want to dedicate so much time to the cleaning and maintenance of my clothes but still want high quality and durable pieces… any thoughts?

Do you get the layla skirt in regular or petite size? Looking forward for more vids from you! Learn a lot about fabric and clothing quality in general from you!

I think reformation is pretty far from “sustainable” if you dig deeper. I used to get fooled by their branding until I learned they’re also fast fashion

Thank you ❤

Love this breakdown

How does their skirt compare to the Quince similar silk skirt?

Hi would you say the Layla skirt runs true to size? If I am a size 27 in jeans do you think a size 2 will fit me? Only asking because that’s the only size left in the print that I like

can you please make an aritzia deep dive ? 💗

Would you recommend the black daria linen top

Hi do you like anything from Walmart? Thank you

Great video! thank you

love your channel

Often quality clothes require tailoring. Fast fashion isn’t worth it to pay to modify. In addition returning stuff can be quite cumbersome AND if you miss the return window you are out of luck!!😮😢😺

Im curious, why not get the clothes that look off, altered?

i love your videos! your shorts have very good audio but in the longer form vids your voice volume is kind of low

I watch your videos, but I still can’t see by myself whether a garment is good quality or not (unless it’s the obvious awful quality like fraying or stuff). How can I learn it faster?

The teacher is here and class is in session! Jennifer pls take us shopping with you! I am loving all your content, but my favorite is when you talk about items you think is worth buying. 🫶🏽

Love this

Hello! I have a question :D Would you consider H&M/cotton on/ Uniqlo to be fast fashion? I keep hearing mixed views about this from my peers, the clothes aren’t as affordable as shein so I’m not sure if it’s fast fashion… I want to stop my intake on fast fashion as well so I’m trying to get people to share their opinions on this matter with me :(

What dies semi-synthetic even mean? What is lyocell compared to viscose and rayon? Thanks.

What’s the point of a strapless top made of polyester??! Too hot for summer, too cold to wear any other time (unless you layer, which makes it less versatile throughout the year and thus more expensive)

Reformation seems affordable at ThredUP and the Real Real

Where do you go thrifting? 😊

yeah nah fast fashion isn’t the “only option” for the overwhelming majority of people in the western world. most fast fashion buyers could buy waaayyy less if they wanted to and spend that money on sustainable clothes or thrift items. they choose not to.

4:09 What’s the fabric called, desktop fabric? 😆 Can someone please spell it for me?

The volume is off. Super low

my dear, you have an enviable shape however most people require tailoring to get a proper fit. This is especially true of high quality clothes. People they le with imperfect bodies have to fit their largest measurements first then tailor from there😺

If it’s made in China it’s not very sustainable and that’s what drives me nuts about this brand :(

I can barely hear you and I’m using a super-max volume speaker, please get a microphone! I like Reformation except that all their tops and dresses are too low-cut, tight and sexy. I often buy silk skirts there.

Superb video. You have super gorgeous body especially back. All these satin dresses looks great on you. LOVE to see more try on haul videos. Keep on smiling we love it

Reformation is the worst. Coming from South Asia I have seen similar or superior quality clothes on the streets for fraction of the price. I was appalled the first time I ordered it from Nordstrom years ago . That was the last time . Most clothes I ordered was obviously returned back 😂

In person, most of their clothes look very cheap and the fibres are synthetic. I only buy their denim and it has to be on sale.

Why is everything so wrinkly. The skirt is so beautiful but all the wrinkles ruin it😢

This is the most overpriced brand everything I purchase is disappointing I guess it’s my fault but the styles are cute

none of these are professional clothes, look like fast fashion trends

im obsessed with this video and your contents! found you on IG, immediate follow! Fellow pharmacist :D
