They used to have cute dresses and tops and now the quality has gone dramatically down and prices still super high for basically polyester. None of the dresses this year are cute they just look like sacks on made of polyester. Beyond their jeans it’s just over priced.

I found that Madewell was a slightly lesser equivalent and they have pretty good stuff (especially secondhand)
I would recommend going to Gap, Banana Republic, Madewell, Anthropologie and buying a few on-trend pieces in natural fibers that speak to you, that go together, and are appropriate for your life, and call it a day.
Im not a cool girl but poshed a ton of midi dresses to wear this spring for work. I like older Madewell, personally.
Madewell has a curvy line, Gap recently launched their curvy line, there is also Abercrombie and Fitch with their Curve love, lots of options!
