Madewell Reviews and Ratings

I agree with the other reviewers, especially with Heidi: it's huge. I ordered a size S (color Optic Black/White Stripe) and it was almost a dress. Well almost... a tiny bit too short to actually wear it as a dress but also (in my opinion) too big to wear it as a t-shirt. The fabric was also a bit stiff so I returned it.

Great tee, nice thick quality fabric. Quite long which is great as I'm 6ft.

This sweater is very wide and loose but exactly as I expected and the look I was after. It's perfect for to and from hot yoga and for a comfy slip on sweatshirt. Just like in the picture.

I bought this shirt because of the colour and plaid pattern, and I'm happy that I did not regret this impulse purchase. I had bought Madewell stuff before, so I knew to size down to an XS for a more fitted look, although I'm generally an S in tops.

Slightly larger than expected however its soooo comfy!

I thought this top would be dairy wear for fall since the color is nice and it looks casually fitted in the pics. But it didn't look as good as I expected, so i returned it. Maybe it's the gathers at the front that's making it look something funny... The fabric is warm and perfect for fall and the color was nice as pictured. I would've kept it if it was full button down shirt.

This is an ok looking top. The sleeves were too short for...however, I do have longer arms because I'm tall. I purchased it because I needed more casual tops to wear with my jeans. I sent it back because of the sleeves.

Super soft and cozy. It is a "go to" shirt for sure!

Loved it - might seem to be rough at edges but it looks good.

Looked cheap.

I 100% support the opinion of the previous reviewer who thought this bag "looked cheaped" & returned it. (1) Compared to the peddled leather in my Marc By Marc Jacobs (MBMJ) bags, for example, this is a much cheaper looking (processed) leather. But then again MBMJ bags are 3 to 5 times the price. (2) The push-lock at the front flap may also contribute to the cheap feel. (3) This bag has no frills, including no cloth lining. (4) I even found the interior patch pocket cheap, as it was basically folded over when I put my hand inside the pocket. (4) It is a leather that will scratch. Even when I took it out of the box shopbop sent it in, it had a little scratch already. Originally I thought I would still keep it given the classic colour and style. But I am thinking about returning it as it is very cheap looking and feels cheap too. If it was not Madewell, I would not think twice about returning it. The colour, simple style, long strap, and brand name is what I like about it.

This bag made me go straight to buy as I'd been waiting for something like this for ages after my old leather bag said goodbye after 8 faithful years. Shopbop got me the bag in three days even though I live in Scandinavia, so the service was great. This is more than I can say about the product. It looked cheap and the leather was thin, very light, fake looking and not at all as it looks on the photos. It squeaks in the hinges when I carry it and I generally feel like it's something I bought in H&M for 25 USD. I'm keeping it mostly because it's too much hassle sending it back to the US. The only positive thing it that it's light, but as mentioned, this adds to the cheapness of the leather so not really a positive thing.. Better keep looking for that little solid leather bag which ages perfectly and stays with me over the years.

These jeans just arrived and I love them! Great colour and cut. I am 5'2 and although there is extra length in the legs, I can get away with not getting them shortened. Best of all is the high waist top - no more muffin top!

These jeans are the most flattering jeans I've ever owned. It's all in the high rise - it lengthens the length and smooths out the stomach area very nicely! I am a US 6 / AU 10, 5' 9" and the 27 are a perfect fit. Very soft fabric with stretch, so comfy. If you're thinking about getting them, just get them - you'll love them :)

I found the jeans tighter than most Madewell brand ones. They were also very thin. Not flattering at all on me, and certainly not worth the price.
