Oh no! These are some of my fave shops although I do only buy in the sale because I find it overpriced.

Boohoo.com will buy the trademarks and IP then knock out crap polyester designs under the brands online, with a passing nod to the style of both Oasis and Warehouse. Both of which are a shadow of their former selves anyway.

This is exactly what happened to Karen Millen.

Can you now see one of the reasons why they are in administration? We all expect clothes to be super cheap now.

@Iamthewombat get what you mean and I don’t mind paying for quality but I resent paying £38 for a polyester shirt!

I think Oasis had been in trouble for a while, they started closing branches before the lockdown.

I use to buy most of my clothes from both stores 5 or6 years ago, but as others have said the quality has gone down over the last few years. I find the same in Topshop too, it's getting harder to find good quality clothing at mid price, I don't shop in primark, newlook, peacocks or quiz anymore as it's full of cheap polyester.

That’s a pity, I love Oasis. My DD’s fave LindyBop has gone already.

I always waited until they had 20% off because it happened so often it was, from my perspective, stupid not to.

I’m a bit annoyed as I found the sizing reliable and right for my body shape so I felt more confident buying on line than other companies where I’d need to buy a couple of sizes and then return one.

Quality has definitely gone downhill, recently whenever I’ve been in oasis everything is super creased!
