Their clothes are so pricy for what they are. Acrylic jumpers -£90.
It never fails to stun me they haven’t gone bust.

I do like their trousers but I agree that some of the things are completely overpriced, given the fabrics they're made from.

25% off everything this week with Grazia

Their stuff is highly priced but some things are lovely. Their cashmere jumpers are pricey but wash and last better than other cheaper cashmere from the high street

ChangedMyNameYetAgain · 26/10/2019 10:18

I like a lot of their stuff.

Only place I’ve seen 100% wool coats for under £300.
Unlike toast, asking £395 for a 20% wool version.

They still have great items. I bought their classic rain mac. Not very exciting but beautifully made and looks good.

TheCanterburyWhales · 26/10/2019 13:04

Quality classics and not fast fashion. Always offers on and codes. Wouldn't buy full price though.

jcurve · 26/10/2019 13:18

Quality has dropped though - I spent about £500 there in August and had to return a silk shirt and a dress because both literally fell apart at the seams after a few wears. I’ve only ever had clothes fail so quickly a handful of times, ever.

They are great at exchanging faulty products though!

I love Jigsaw. I had a black wool coat that I wore every winter for five years. Their cloud cashmere is amazing and their linen dresses gorgeous. I’m 52 and think they are fashionable without being faddy. They also have a good discount shop on eBay.

Someone the same size as me buys loads of Jigsaw, wears it once then donates it to our local charity shop where I buy it Grin

I spoke to the ladies who work in the charity shop & they confirmed it’s all donated by the same lady - no idea who she is but must be rich.

I’m currently wearing a Jigsaw cashmere jumper from that charity shop - think I paid £20 but it was new without tags.

I just got a lovely pair of ankle boots for £49

AnnaNimmity · 26/10/2019 15:54

My boyfriend likes their stiff!

The basic tops are nice - they had the best white t shirts this summer. I’m hankering after a lilac knit.

But agree, at that price range, there are nicer (more edgy) places to go.

AnnaNimmity · 26/10/2019 15:54

*stuff

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 26/10/2019 15:56

I've rediscovered them again recently, but only in the sales. Ridiculously overpriced-priced at full price. for mostly viscose etc. I really like their modal lace camisoles and have a few nice work items, and bags.

AliciaQuays · 27/10/2019 17:54

I’m glad your boyfriend likes it 🧐

They make money from people like me. I love their clothes and buy them frequently.

AnnaNimmity · 27/10/2019 17:57

(the men's clothes!). (which seem quite nice).

I wore a jigsaw skirt I bought in the summer today - I'd forgotten about it. Really nice!

Tojigornot · 27/10/2019 17:57

I quite like them as well.

nitgel · 27/10/2019 18:02

I love them too esp boots have loads that o bought in last year's sale that ive yet to wear, all under 50 and beautiful. Also just bought some lovely cotton herringbone pyjamas that are lush. Jewellery is also nice. Really want the lovely furry gloves next.

teta · 27/10/2019 20:09

I love Jigsaw too but only buy when things are very much reduced. I bought the terracotta silk camisole recently and the pink and plum velvet culottes when they were in the sale. Plus two dark green tops - one silk. I’m not sure how much money they’re making at the moment. Our local shop is very quiet. Probably not helped by customers like me 😬.

Anyone know the grazing code pls or do you have to buy the magazine ? Thanks

Namechangenecessity · 27/10/2019 21:14

Grazia! Not grazing !

nitgel · 27/10/2019 21:16

Its GRAZIA25 think it ends tonight

Namechangenecessity · 27/10/2019 21:36

Thanks nitgel !

Namechangenecessity · 27/10/2019 22:28

I’ve just ordered the navy ballet back top which I had my eye on anyway.
