Where to shop - loved Oasis

Dillydollie · 04/09/2021 22:22

Am struggling to find clothes I like post lockdown. I do online shopping but often need to try on clothes to see how they look if they are not a style I’ve worn before. I usually had a high level of success finding clothes in Oasis. I know you can still get Oasis range online but since the Oasis shops closed the style/quality looks totally different. I’d often go to Debenhams to wander and see what I was drawn to and also Warehouse. Any suggestions re high street alternatives or online retailers with a similar style to Oasis?

I loved Oasis. Everyone I speak to in real life prefers buying clothes in shops rather than online and yet everything seems to be moving online. All the shops I liked near me - oasis, Dorothy perkins, Debenhams - have all closed down. Only next and matalan surviving :(

I find Oliver bonas reminds me of oasis a bit. Also la reroute.

I'm struggling too and I agree about the quality of Oasis since it's been online - I've had a dress that would never have been in the shop that the quality was so bad, and a dress that was supposed to be a size 8 was about 6 times larger.

H&M is good for a lot of stuff, and I really like Hush but it's quite a bit more expensive. Zara is also a good bet.

Karwomannghia - thanks for the Oliver Bonas tip - I’ve looked online and can see the similarity to Oasis!

I miss the Oasis of old too.

I find SOME of the stuff at &other stories can be oasis like ( but half seems to be quite dramatic stuff!).

Tu!

Monsoon? I have a fair bit from both Monsoon and Oasis and with the older stuff I can never remember which is from which.

I feel the same OP. I liked trying on things in store rather than having to order £££ worth and return most of it.

I think the Monsoon quality has really gone down the pan to be honest.

I like la recourse but obviously is only online. Gutted Coast had gone (I know it was bought by pretty little thing and the quality reflects that now) as that was my go to for occasion dresses that would last years.
