Quince Clothing Review – Is Quince legit? (And sizing for 10+ items!)
My honest Quince clothing review with sizing insights!
As many of you know, I try really hard to do put a question box up every week, and one topic that popped up ALL the time is Quince. Have you tried Quince? Is their clothing good quality? Is Quince legit?! And I get the curiosity – I was curious too! So after months of wondering along with you, I finally went to their website and placed a big order so I could write a full Quince review.
What is Quince clothing?
Quince is a direct-to-consumer retail website that carries clothing, leather goods, accessories, home decor, bed and bath, and more. It’s CRAZY how much variety they have, especially since they are committed to high quality products and sustainability… for a fraction of the cost of other brands.
Sustainability
It’s not often that you find a brand that is both affordable and sustainable, but Quince has somehow managed to do it. They are committed to more eco-conscious production with sustainably produced materials. They ship directly from the factory to the consumer, which reduces their carbon footprint.
They are eliminating all virgin plastic in their packaging, and all of their packaging will be 100% compostable by the end of the year. And they work with factories that provides equitable wages and safe work environments for their workers.
Do you have a Quince discount code?
Unfortunately I don’t have a Quince discount code – and you are unlikely to find one anywhere. This is because the prices are already so low for the quality of the items. I really respect this because, while I love a deal, I also try to avoid supporting unethical retailers as much as possible. I think their items are priced really fairly right from the start, so that helps too!
Quince Clothing Review
If you’re new here, welcome! For context, I am 5’2″ and I typically wear either an XS or S in tops, a 2 or 4 in dresses and a size 27 in jeans.
Women’s 100% Organic Cotton Fisherman Crew Sweater – $39.90
I don’t own any Jenni Kayne but apparently this Fisherman Sweater is very similar to theirs – except JK’s is $395 and this is only $40. This one is made from 100% organic cotton and it’s a great weight with really nice rib detailing all over. I got a size small and it isn’t very oversized, so I’d definitely size up if you want more slouch.
Men’s 100% Organic Cotton Fisherman Crew Sweater – $59.90
Let’s add a men’s item to this Quince review, shall we?! Adam needed a new warm sweater and I suggested the men’s version of the one I have – and it’s a hit! Just like mine, it’s made from 100% organic cotton and it has a nice weight to it. Adam got it in a size large.

Washable Silk Blouse – $69.90
I get tons of questions about workwear and this blouse is going to be my new top recommendation. Remember the washable silk skirt? Well, this is made from the same material. Hooray for no dry cleaning! It also comes in 9 different colors, so you could technically get one for every day of the week. Wear them with a skirt or trousers to the office and with leggings on your Zooms from home ;)
I got a small and it’s long on me but that’s to be expected because I’m short. Nothing a little tuck can’t fix!

Cashmere Crewneck Sweater – $50
The fact that this sweater is only $50 is BANANAS. The style isn’t anything groundbreaking, but it is timeless. Crew neck, slim fit, lightweight but cozy… it will never go out of style. It’s also made from 100% Grade-A Mongolian cashmere so it’s incredibly soft and warm. I recommend sizing up if you want a little bit of a slouch to it – I have on a size small here. It also comes in 13 colors!
—
Chiffon Smocked Blouse – $59.90
This blouse is so cute and fun! The chiffon fabric is made from 100% recycled polyester and it feels a lot more expensive than $60. That being said, I told myself I wouldn’t keep everything from this order, so this one is another one that is going back. I think it could be a winner if you’ve been on the hunt for an affordable top you can dress up or down though! I’m wearing a small here.

ITALIAN LEATHER QUILTED CROSSBODY BAG – $129.90
Omg THIS BAG. Alllll the heart eyes! I originally wasn’t sure what to expect but I’m so glad I took a chance on it, because it’s been my go to bag for a year now! I still cannot get over the quality of the real Italian leather for the price. I mean a handcrafted buttery leather bag for $130? Sign me UP.
Even after using it nonstop all year, it’s still in beautiful condition and the color is so versatile and great for all seasons. I even bought another one in stone for our trip to Portugal last summer! That one is only $99 and the color went with all of my printed summer dresses.
You can also fit a lot inside! I’ve been able to fit my wallet, phone, passport, camera, lip balm, sunglasses… with room to spare!

Brushed Short Sleeve Lounge Tee – $29.90
Holy moly this tee is SO SOFT. I literally ran over to Adam as soon as I opened it to make him feel it too 😂 The fabric plus the relaxed fit and dolman sleeve definitely make this a lounge-y tee, but it still looks nice enough to style different ways. I got an XS and it’s still a little oversized on me.
Mongolian Cashmere Shrunken Sweatshirt – $69.90
I’ve been eyeing this cashmere sweater since I first started writing this Quince review back in February, and it’s just as good as I wanted it to be! It has a subtle v-stitch at the neck and raglan sleeves, like a sweatshirt… except it’s made out of the softest cashmere. This color is stunning in person and I sized up to a medium for a cozy/slightly oversized fit.
Flowknit Mid-Rise Jogger – $39.90
A follower of mine actually DMed me to tell me I needed to try these joggers and I’m so glad I did! They have a drawstring, pockets, and cuffed ankles that make them very petite friendly.
They’re also made from Global Recycle Standard poly yarn which diverts and recycles plastics that would have gone to landfills or the ocean – and instead turns them into this cozy loungewear! I got a size small.
—
Alpaca Crewneck Sweater – $49.90
One thing to know about me is that I LOVE Everlane’s alpaca crewneck. I own it in 3 colors and have been wearing them for years – so the fact that this $50 version is (dare I say it!) just as good is blowing my MIND.
I sized up to a small in this one because I wanted that cozy fit, and I’m glad I did because it runs a lot smaller than the Everlane version. It comes in 6 colors and it’s really soft and warm!
—
Mongolian Cashmere Boyfriend Cardigan ($139.90 ) and Mongolian Cashmere Cropped Tank ($39.90)
Quince’s cashmere is SO impressive, especially for the price – and I love this set so much! I got a small in both the tank and the cardigan, but I should have sized down in the cardigan. It is VERY oversized, so just be aware of that when ordering!
—
Cashmere Batwing Sweater – $79.90
I wasn’t sure if this batwing sweater was going to look ridiculous on me since I’m short, but I’m glad I tried it because I looooove it. It’s made with 100% Grade-A Mongolian cashmere that is SO soft, I didn’t want to take it off.
The S/M size is definitely big on me but I think it’s really cute when you do a little half tuck! The green is really pretty in real life, and it comes in 6 other colors. I will be living in this until it warms up again, especially on work from home days!

Tencel Rib Knit Maxi Slip Dress – $49.90
I don’t wear bodycon dresses very often but this dress hugs allllll the curves, baby! I’ve never tried the Skims long slip dress, but I’ve heard that this is a good dupe for it. I love that the fabric is super soft and breathable, and even though it’s sexy, you can actually style it a lot of different ways!
This blog post has the links to 5 outfit ideas too. II got a size small and it’s a little long on my 5’2″ self but it’s perfect with heels and I can add a belt and shimmy it up to wear with flat shoes.

Quince 100% Organic Cotton Tiered Maxi Dress – $69.90
This is such a good Anthropologie Somerset Dress dupe!! I know the Anthro one comes in tons of colors, prints and sizing – but this one is half the price and still amazing quality. I love the organic cotton poplin because it’s super lightweight and breathable, and there’s a snap sewn in to keep the neckline in place! I got a size small and it was too big so I am exchanging for an XS.
