![]() ![]() It's why I buy certain brands and not others. The clothes she said can't wear are ones I always gravitate towards.Įven in standard size clothing you have so much variation person to person. She has broad shoulders and muscular legs/butt, whereas I have neither. And yet her complaints were the opposite from mine. The OP was my same height, clothing size, and even had a short torso like I did. There was a post earlier today about how minimalist fashion is for priveledged people. So, what are your thoughts? Do reviews frustrate you too? What can we or companies do better to make the review process more helpful? If we know our bodies (like shape and foot width, etc.) we can give better reviews. Your bad reviews flood out the helpful reviews and in turn lower the star rating of the item.įourth - we need to get to know our bodies better. I was reviewing a sandal that stated in the item description "item runs small, order 1/2 size up." I go and read the reviews, "I ordered my regular size and the item is too small." No kidding. Third - get rid of the low effort and dumb reviews. We all know some clothes look better on certain body types. That way people who are that shape/size can get a better picture of how the item is going to fit. Second - make it so that you need to enter in your measurements or shape (or typical standard size) prior to submitting a review. Also, items should always include measurements, period. I've been measured a size 8, and yet I wear size 8.5 and 9 shoes. If I buy a size 8 from one brand and the same size at another, it should still fit. So what can we (and companies) do about this? Well first, it would be nice to make women's sizing CONSISTENT across the board. Then I have to wait a while before I'm refunded - and by that time the item is sold out or no longer on sale. Not to mention the bottleneck it causes for mail carriers. So what am I to believe? Do I order a size up or down? If it doesn't fit, I may get stuck with a return charge and have to drive to the mail carrier to return it (which I'd prefer not to during COVID). Another reviewer (for the same article of clothing) says it runs too small, order a size up. One reviewer says the item runs large, order a size smaller. Why you might ask? It's because how online reviews and the review process are utterly inconsistent. I find an article of clothing I like and start reading the reviews. Since most stores are closed I go the online route. I figured this would be a perfect time to update my summer wardrobe. Like many of you, I've been stuck at home with too much free time on my hands.
