Great job on your video and mentioning that some people will only be able to afford Quince’s cashmere. They too may be trying to buy the best they can afford so they can own good pieces for a while. Love that you mentioned that. Yes, there are better quality items elsewhere but this is still a great site for those looking for nice stuff. Well done!
Thank you!! I think it’s a great brand to build a wardrobe with great quality without going into debt. I am not in a space to spend hundreds of dollars on a single sweater 😅 Thank you for watching and your kind words!
I appreciate you going into detail about the construction quality as well. This is something that is so often overlooked in reviews but I need it! As I get older I try to invest a little bit more in more clothes so that they last and I can save money in the long run as well as have a more polished look.
Full disclosure, I just purchased two 100% Mongolian cashmere sweaters at a $60 price point from Quince. In comparison to other types of cashmere it’s not as heavy, but still has a nice soft feel. It’s a nice lightweight sweater but different than other brands of cashmere which explains the price point.
Thank you for your kind words! It means a lot to me that you enjoyed the video and understood the importance of not shaming others for their fashion choices.
Quince had a baby cashmere that I bought from last year. I wear it a lot and it doesn’t shed at all. The $50 does shed a little but so does Everlane’s at a higher price. In the winter my sweaters are basically all cashmere from Quince and a few from others, but I prefer Quince’s. And I really like what you said during the edit, it’s hard to buy nicer clothes within a lower income budget so this company does do that for many that I know ❤
No shedding? Quince's baby cashmere is like the superhero of sweaters, saving us from the annoyance of shedding wool! And I totally get what you mean about buying nicer clothes on a lower income budget even if they are not perfect when it comes to sustainability. It's like trying to find a needle in a haystack, but Quince is definitely the needle in this case!
Thanks for your understanding of the implicit class bias inherent in most discussions of sustainability. Long ago quality construction in clothing was a given. So even budget items and synthetics were well sewn and designed to last. Natural fiber clothing was not a luxury it was ubiquitous. Over time in the digital age focus has shifted to "trends" instead of longevity. 35 years ago I was was buying the silk, cashmere and cotton items at affordable and reasonable prices now being thrifted by todays generation. I cannot find equivalent value in today's market. The cost of a well made cotton shirt is absurd. I'm glad you gave an objective review of Quince as I had been looking at the brand for a while.
Bummer! I have both a yak wool and a cashmere sweater from them, I find the cashmere softer but not by much. If your skin gets irritated, I would recommend their cotton sweaters!
I'm in the same boat as you on pants. No more of those weird synthetic stretchy fibers. They end up getting destroyed in the wash regardless. Most of their pants have "ultra stretch" in the title, but they have some linen pants that look well made. I've been searching through their website for new pieces. The cotton and linen items look promising. I have been searching for reviews of their cashmere, so thank you for this!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I totally agree about ditching those synthetic fibers. I'm glad the cotton and linen options caught your eye-happy shopping!
Zara does sell 100% pure linen items with 100% cotton lining, so does H&M The real conversation that should be ongoing is how synthetic fibers destroy human health, animal health and the environmental health. Synthetic fibers should NOT be put on human body.

I feel like it’s time passes. I am so much more interested in high-quality pieces in comparison to what’s trendy or cool right now

I appreciate you sharing your thoughts on the Quince sweaters! It's always helpful to hear feedback from fellow fashion enthusiasts.
Loved what you said at the end about not shaming people. Well said. I love my sezane pieces but they are very pricey

Thank you for sharing your insights and experiences with clothing quality over the years. It's great to hear your perspective.
I have the 100% yak wool sweater but it’s not as soft as I expected which is not disappointing but I’m just wondering if it’s less soft than cashmere?

I have some fast fashion pieces that I still wear but I find that natural fibers feel way better
where is your initial red cardigan from?
I got it from a vintage store! It’s from the 70s
👋, I was wondering 🤔 what the length of the cashmere dress was? I'm 5"7". Was it a midi dress?

Can’t see the crop on the trousers nor where the skirt/ dress hits your legs…
I appreciate your feedback! I’ll make sure to get clearer shots of the crop and dress length in future videos.

I actually got them at a vintage fair in the bay area!
