Can anyone tell me what the quality of Joe Brown's.clothing is like? I have 2 daughters who would like the dresses shown in the catalogue but are the materials good?

I like some of their styles, but I don't buy from them any more because there's just so much sweaty polyester and acrylic. And the last thing I ordered from there (viscose dress) was thin and floppy and hung badly, so I returned it.

Having said that, I've got a polyester dress from there which is years old and still looks new.

Maybe order and see what the specific things you're looking at are like in real life. You can always return them if you don't like them.

Yeh I have a few things from then in the past couple of years and it's been fine.
Saying that though, the leggings which I really liked got a hol in the critch area fairly quickly. I was disappointed because they were thicker than what's you'd get in a standard high st shop.

I've found the quality to be good, everything has lasted well.

@Donkii I noticed the polyester and acrylic. I think your idea of finding out in real life is the way forward.
@Hungrycaterpillarsmummy bit more optimistic. Hmmm I think I will have to send for something.
Thanks both of you for helping out.😍

I wear loads of JB dresses and love them - last really well and always get loads of compliments about them 😄

Their men's clothes are excellent quality, lots of 100% cotton, but their women's range is so shoddy in comparison.
