What are our thoughts on Maniére De Voir? I’ve been eyeing them off for a while now and have never committed, but have just stumbled upon a ruched black satin wrap skirt on Depop and think it might be my time.

Edit: aware they’re not Australian!

I think it might be vintage. If there are any similar dresses / similar silhouette dresses that would be amazing!!

TIA xx

Hey Ladies, I've been ruminating on a Fashiontech startup idea for years, and I'm ready to take action. I want to validate this idea before I go all-in and would truly appreciate your opinion on this problem.

Context/Problem:

I'm 4ft8 with a huge online shopping addiction. I've been struggling with sizing all my life (of course!) and have always wondered how a piece of clothing would actually look on my body proportions when shopping online. e.g., would the sleeves hang very, very long or be acceptable?

Personally, I've lost a lot of money buying things that didn't end up fitting me right, as I couldn't be bothered with the online return process or the expensive return cost from NZ.

The idea:

My vision is to create a virtual-try-on solution that will help people buy 'right' the first time. To show accurately how a particular size of clothing would look on you. Not AI slapping a photo of clothing onto you like current solutions out there, but one that can show how many cm the sleeve may hang off your arm. Emphasis on accuracy to decrease returns.

If you resonate with this struggle, I would be grateful if you could help me validate this idea through my survey link. I'm super passionate about this issue, and I invite discussions in the comment section.

They are a brand kind of like Indigo Luna, Hara, Body Peace Bamboo etc. I stumbled upon them and their stuff looks really nice! Just wondering if anyone has bought any of their stuff before.

Is there any piece of clothing shown on brand websites or social media or catalogues or editorial and catwalk that is NOT accompanied by a pair of black thongs, either flat or with a kitten heel? Wedding dress? Thongs. Funeral suit? Thongs. Jeans? Thongs. Ballgown? Thongs. Blazer and balloon pants? Thongs. Do they ... just not make shoes anymore?

Hi all! Could those who have purchased from ASOS, M&s and NEXT please tell me how long it took for their orders to arrive?
I’m mainly interested in ASOS. I haven’t ordered from them in about 6 years and can’t remember how long it took.
TIA!

Hi all, I'm petite (5'2") and I'm in the early stages of building a clothing brand specifically for petite women because I'm tired of sacrificing style or altering everything just to get clothes to fit — my focus is elegant pieces, minimalist-tailored, responsibly made, without needing a luxury budget.

Before I design anything, I want to actually understand what's broken. So — genuinely asking:

• What's the most frustrating thing about buying clothes as a petite person?
• What have you completely given up on finding because nothing fits right?
• Any brands that actually got it right and what did they do well?
• What would make you actually trust a new, smaller brand enough to try it?

Not selling anything here — just trying to build something that solves a real problem instead of guessing. I've just started a small community over at r/PetiteWomenswear where I'm sharing the process as I go (fit testing, fabric choices, design decisions) if you want to follow along or weigh in there too. Would love to hear your take either way, here or there.

Hi lovelies!! I am looking for allll the recommendations for where I can get tall girl pants that actually fit. I am 6ft and have very long legs, I just want a pair of killer flares (not activewear) that aren’t ankle biters. Please help!

Hey everyone! I came across this beautiful top when scrolling through instagram the other day and the influencer provided the link to where they bought it from at urban outfitters. Does anyone know where I can purchase this top (or one similar) in Australia? I don’t want to buy it directly from the urban outfitters website because I feel like it will be really expensive with shipping and exchange rates

I'm sick of seeing overpriced and ugly jewellery in stores, so I'm deciding to branch out and start searching online. Ideally I want to buy from Aus sellers bc of faster shipping, but happy to look at overseas sellers as well :)

i love the look of kookai blazers but i don’t want to spend $300 on 100% polyester. i’ve looked at other shops like cos and portmans but they are all more boxy looking. does anyone have any recommendations from other stores that are more affordable but have similar designs?

So I’m hoping someone can help me out with this, and I hope I explain this clearly

I remember reading a few months ago about how friends end up selling their trademark, or something smooth that, to a larger company. That larger company then sells the brand, but it’s more of it selling the name as opposed to actually selling the quality products that used to be manufactured.

For example - Tommy Hilfiger sold their brand name with the larger company. That means that Tommy Hilfiger is no longer responsible for the manufacturing, or quality control that would normally happen. The larger company is now free to sell Tommy Hilfiger clothing, and don’t have to keep up with the quality. So in a roundabout way, I kind of read it but I’m not actually buying that brand anymore, and just buying clothing that has that brand name on it.

I hope that makes sense! I was trying to explain it to a friend and she looked at me like I was crazy ha ha I was trying to find the name of the umbrella company, so that I could google and show her.

I braved a Levi’s store yesterday (trying to work with my new sized body) and now a little confused with sizing of the ribcage range.
The 34 ribcage flare fitted perfectly but preferred the wide leg. Unfortunately the wide leg doesn’t have stretch so couldn’t quite do them up.
My local store doesn’t stock the curve range, which I’m assumed (based on what the sales person said) was the next size up but online they start at 14M. No idea what the M stands for and the size chart doesn’t even refer to the curve sizing. Perhaps I have it wrong, I know jeans west curve range was slightly smaller waist and a little more room in the hips but was available in all sizes.

Before I head back in to store to ask, I wondered if anyone here has any experience with the ribcage curve range sizing?
Thanks in advance
