hello lovelies, topshop cancelled my order yesterday, due to "insufficient inventory." um, okay...and then a day later the cowl neck jersey dress i ordered is back on the website! topshop, what is going on?!

at this point, that dress is the only piece i really want (love the studs and embroidery), outside of the poppy print floral dress. the white dress is so cute, but i know it wouldn't suit me, along with that midnight blue chiffon dress. alas, i'm not a long, lithe model-type!

any word on the jackets and coats? cheap and horrendous or somewhat decent?

good grief! why the heck are they cancelling everyone's orders??? that is just REALLY whacked. i wonder how many orders have been cancelled at this point and more importantly WHY. it seems like the reasons they give you are really lame.

i haven't seen anything IRL unfortunately.

I know she didn't DESIGN it, literally but she involved very much with the collection and that's a good thing... anyway I love her vintage floral tea dress... reminds me of what my mom used to wear back in the 80's.

This is chaotic - you would think TopShop would have been prepared for this

the whole collection is very "topshop", even without Kate, it is already doing things similar, vests in all colour, little waist coats..

To be honest, I'd say almost everything looks cheap IRL. I know, it's Topshop, but for the prices the quality should be better.

Agreed, and topshop has even got better stuff than this.

I think you have to be very slim to pull the clothes off.. and it's important that you do not wear head-to-toe look. I just got the pansy dress.. I love it on me, I think I have the same slim body as Kate and it looks perfect on a body like that.. but I'm still REALLY unsure about keeping it, as there is going to be so many other people with it..

But I should just care about what I like.. right? But seeing chubbier girls than me in the same thing puts me off.

A girl has been seen with the red brocade dress, I think she pulls it off, I'm really curious about the black wet look dress..






facehunter topshop.

What did you order Jennifer? Please do share your feedback on the clothes when you recieve them.

It's cool that some can see past the 'sheep' labelling and just add things to their wardrobe that they know are their style and know can work.

Thanks for the pic just_me...ouch, that red dress is horrible. The girl has a great figure, nice-ish shoes and watch, but looks like a character from a dodgy european porno. It's just so 'cheeky girls' and not in a cool, ironic way.

yeah the red dress is definitely the worst item in the collection, and not one real person has looked good in the stuff so far, which makes me worried...i've only bought the belt and my friends loved it, but they're my friends, they're gonna be nice to me!

Actually I think the girl looks nice... maybe a bit vulgar, but most of club girls are IMO
