Just discovered this website but wondering what the quality and fit is like? My pet hate is tops that are short in the body (hello M&S) as I like things to be a decent length. All the tops on the website are tucked in so hard to tell how long they are.

If anything, I'd say longer in the body. Got a few dresses, love them (pockets AND sleeves) but have had to send a few back as too long for 5ft4" me. The sweaters are cute, too.

Found their sizing very poor - ordered two things in same size, one was so small I couldn't get it on, one was so big I looked like a clown.
Also, it took six days to despatch my order! Six! Not over Christmas, just normal working days. I was flabbergasted.

I love them! I discovered them a few months ago and have only done one order but everything fit really well. I just wish I had more places to wear them so I could justify buying more Blush

I have a couple of dresses and a few of the knit slogan jumpers, I find the jumpers on the short size, but I do like to cover my bum !! I wear shirts under them. the dresses are full skirts and falls high on the waist, size is true maybe a little small.
I really like the newest stuff, I have my eye on a few bits and pieces.

Love this ❤️

I bought a blouse before Christmas but returned it because the material was really nasty, and it was huge. I recent,y bought some sunglasses which are fab, but agree they took absolutely ages to get here.

Watching with interest as I have my eye on some frocks

It's the jumpers and t shirts I'm mostly interested in. I'll order a couple and see!

I've had dresses and short jackets from Joanie. The jackets were enormous, and I returned them. I love the fit and flare silhouette dress I kept, which was true to size and verging on small. I've also kept a fifties style dress, but it's really high on the waist - in fact it sits on my ribs and I'm short waisted but tallish (5'8").

I want to order a knitted jumper from Joanie. I'm usually a 14, the very odd time a 12 in tops. Should I go for the medium which states it's 12 _ 14 Or the large?
TIA

fermezzlabouche · 08/12/2018 15:40

I’d go for the large, I’m a 12 and the medium is a little snug in the slogan knit jumpers. Ive jusg ordered two in the event sales.

secretgirl · 08/12/2018 21:17

Thank you. I'll go for the large so. They have 30% off knitwear at the minute.

Bloodynorthernrock · 08/12/2018 22:16

I have a few things and agree that the sizing isn't really consistent and have found myself between sizes on some things. However the things that have fitted well and I've kept have been great and their customer service is really good!
