Has anyone bought anything from Unfolded. I like the styles and ethos behind it, but would like to know what the quality is like.

I bought their short sleeved jumpsuit which was lovely quality and a really nice cream and navy geometric pattern. Unfortunately it was very difficult to get on and off with a back zip so I returned it. I also have bought my dd one of their cord shackets which she seemed to like, and a couple of kids t shirts, all very nice quality.

Think I will brave it when the weather warms up and order a couple of things

I love this brand.
I've a couple of Lana trousers in different weights.

I've got at least 7 of their dresses - 4 are from the Fabulous offshoot which has larger bust.

I've got Tshirts & a Breton too.

The fabric is always great quality.

Another Unfolded fan here, I have two dress already that I bought last year and today took delivery of 2 more dresses, beautifully made and luckily fit like a glove! I bought the Rodica Brushstroke print dress and the Dora Leaf print dress - very impressed!

I have just received my dress ordered on 9 April. Its nice. But not worth the wait - think there’s less of a lead time on wedding dresses.

Didn't realise they did trousers too

Not the company for me, ordered a dress in my usual size, price was OK and it arrived quite quickly. However the sizing was completely off the top was nowhere near the correct size. I am a 20 it may have fitted a 16 if they were lucky.
So now I have a dress and have to work my way through their convoluted returns process. Added it to swaps but one was declined and the other ignored and it would appear nobody else wants this dress.
Tried to post it as they want on the Facebook page (and I hate FB and avoid it as much as possible), but my post didn't even get approved (or rejected by the admins)

I wasn’t that fussed by my dress that took 8 weeks to arrive. The placement of the pockets adds several inches to my hips and although it’s petite it’s the length that’s petite and not the body - so the elastic wasn’t is in the wrong place for me and too low. Consequently despite having F cup boobs I don’t fill it and need to wear a crop top underneath or display my bra.

So it’s not at all flattering, it’s lined and the material is nice so that’s a plus. But not worth the money and certainly not worth the lead time.

Like you I cannot be bothered to return it.

I got a lovely summery dress last week. It took aaaaages, over 6 weeks, and I am still waiting for another one which I bought for DS's graduation, now 10 days away.

I got a 14 short. It fits OK but the v neck is very low so I have to wear a slip which slightly undermines the summer weight! Considering it's a short, it's quite long length and I'm 5 ft 4.

I have ordered a few things from them and was fortunate enough to be selected for one of their photo shoots a couple of years ago.
The quality is generally good, I struggle a little with the sizes for tops and trousers so tend to stick to dresses or skirts. They occasionally have a pop up near me - CEO lives in Edinburgh- and I much prefer it when I can try things on.

The wait time is frustrating, but I really admire how the clothes are ethically made. I do question how committed they are to getting rid of clothes waste as there is quite a lot of recycling of designs in recent collections and their model only works if people keep buying.

There is a FB group where you can buy stuff people want to sell. Generally hardly used because of the sizing thing.

I'm 5'8" and find the trousers, dresses etc all fit me well lengthwise.
I'm not huge in the bsut but large enough and I've found some dresses too tight in bust area - so I only order styles that are more relaxed in the bust area. If I was able to try the dresses on it would be easier.

I like their low waste/funding eduction/pay workers properly etc business model and I usually don't mind the wait.

Thank you ladies for your feedback. I don't think I shall bother and will stick to White Stuff who do petite which fits me perfectly or Fat Face which do a short range too.

Has anyone ever spent a fortune on an expensive bottle of perfume and the scent disappears after an hour? I purchased Prada Paradoxe and after an hour the scent has gone.

I've tried moisturising prior to spraying it on but this does not work. I feel that I have spent an awful lot of money for a scent I like but which does a disappearing act!🙁

Oh no that isn't great.
I do find many scents dont last on me in hot weather, but are perfectly fine in normal temperatures. My perfume game changes completely in the summer and I just stick to a couple that I know work well in the heat.

When autumn comes along I get excited about wearing old faves again.
