Do they have good sales? There's a new one in the town where I work and I keep going in and lusting after their knitwear. But it's so expensive.

They wouldn't cater for my size

But I like the flashy sign n the window

It's horrifically expensive, and everything looks like a pile of crumpled laundry [gimmer]

I agree with it all looking like crumpled laundry. They have one where I live, the sales are not too good, not alot of money off.

Bad sales then, that's a shame, will have to keep lusting after from afar.

Agree about the crumpled laundry, but I really like the knitwear [stamps feet] not that I understand how to wear most of it, but it looks interesting

Have bought one thing only, ever, from All Saints

It is a fabulous long, thin, 100% merino wool cardigan, reduced from 75 quid to 15 quid.

Brilliant bargain and it looks cool (have never seen it on anyone else either)

I have their "Pirate" cardigan in grey merino wool. Cost about £75 iirc. You can either wear it wrapped around (a la ballet wrap cardigans), open so it hangs "waterfall" style or knotted at the front. I love it and have worn it loads. Just wish they had more colourful shades instead of everything in grey/muted shades

The shop near me reminds me of some sort of nasty horror film!

Fluffy!

It is all rather gothic and cool though, no? I feel about 90 years old when I go in there! IMO it is even worse than going into Top Shop

It just reminds me of some dingy butchers shop/something from a Jack the Ripper movie. I do love the tartan dress though. It's a bg temptation.

too £££ for me and only bits of it are wearable imo..well for an old bird like me which it clearly is not aimed at

dd likes it but it is waaay out of her price league

I lovet his brand for the 16 - 20 age group but I can't see how many of them can afford it - who do you think their target audience is?

Report
brimfull · 15/06/2009 19:11

agree the young ones it is aimed for can in no way afford it

I've never bought anything from them but often go in to fondle the hitch skirts and bustle dresses. They are v Vivienne Wetwood looking.

Agree about the colours though (and I am queen of black and grey) and the prices. DD1 14, loves them but even Topshop is a bit beyond her budget and she has to make do with Zara and H&M on the whole!

They have some good styling but the quality is poor for the price. The clothes fall apart and wash really badly.

I LOVE All Saints. Was in there today lusting after knitwear and T-shirts in wonderful soft gauzy cotton.

Was in there the other day and was amazed to find that they had cardigans with four sleeves. Now that was certainly a step too far for me, I thought.

janeite, I think you will find that was a jumpsuit

Nope - it was deffo a cardigan. We looked at it from many angles (and I had an ex-fashion-designer with me, so even though I am dim, hopefully she would know!). It was very strange indeed.
