Hi, what do people think of Mint Velvet clothing? I like the look but when I go to the concessions in store never find much I like...also is sizing generous if ordering online? Thanks

I like it, but would rarely pay full price for it , I am stingy though. I would either get it in the sales or I have picked up a few bargains on Ebay, lots of MV listed.

I've found sizing is true to size, not small sizing (looking at you H&M) but not particularly generous.

Quality seems fair, although check the care label. I seem to have bought quite a few things that are hand wash only or dry clean only without realising.

I really like it. It fits well and has some interesting but wearable pieces. I have a sleeveless draped top I’ve had for years from there.

I like it and have quite a lot of tops from there in nice shapes but I read a comment on here once which wasn't very complimentary about the wearers! Did not put me off though.
Sizing is normal, can be generous as they can be drapey.

I have 2 jackets from there. I went clothes shopping today and liked a t-shirt there but couldn’t justify the cost - £45 for a t-shirt Shock.

Normal prices are steep , I got a vest top today in the sale but wouldn’t pay full price

It used to be one of my go to shops as we have a good branch near us. However, I find it is full of loads of polyester for increasingly high prices.

That said, I have bought my winter coat and a rather lovely red fake fur lined biker jacket in the sale.

I like the look of some of their stuff but in reality I find it hangs really badly on me. Whatever it is they do it is never a nice fit for me. I'm between a 10 and a 12 though and find 12 is too big and 10 just a bit too tight so I've given up on them.
