Ten Best Pieces to Buy from Quince 2024
It is possible to tell a brand is good if I have to use mail forwarding in order to purchase it. That has happened countless times. Quince has become one of my favorite go-to brands, and for good reason. They have classic, timeless styles that are as well-made as their more expensive counterparts. Here are the Ten Best Pieces to Buy from Quince 2024
As such, I decided to list what I consider the top ten pieces available on Quince right now and include a few honorable mentions while noting at this point that it’s not easy getting down to only ten items from the range available already.
1: Quince 100% Organic Cotton Sleeveless Maxi Dress
To start off this review, I want to talk about this really adorable cotton midi dress. I’m 172 cm tall so this is an ankle grazer on me, meaning if you are taller, you might find that it fits more like a long midi. But Quince just did it rightly in terms of execution. It’s lined and has a nice weight to the fabric, which immediately makes it feel like a high-end or expensive item at all. There are seamless pockets on the hips that don’t break the line of the dress, along with adjustable straps, which, frankly, are a total game changer.
The sizes run large; I have on the S but should probably have gone for an XS as there is quite a bit of room under my armpits when worn comfortably. If you haven’t figured it out yet, this is a dupe for Jenni Kayne’s Cove Dress, one of her top sellers, as far as I know. To be honest, though, I tried on the Cove Dress and found myself not pleased (which was strange because I love Quince’s version).Here are the Ten Best Pieces to Buy from Quince 2024
The only difference that stands out somewhat is that Jenni Kayne’s runs slightly shorter but bigger (it’s also cut generously), uses marginally better quality cotton with some additional weight (the fabric also has a slight sheen effect) and lacks smocking detail at the back. In my opinion, however, if you had to choose between these two dresses, then go for Quince without any question whatsoever.
WEARING:
There should be a small size (it’s bigger; I would suggest one size smaller). It measures 48 cm from armpit to armpit and is approximately 131 cm long.
The following dress is another JK copycat that Quince does a great job with; this recognition goes to the 100% European Linen Scoop Neck Midi Dress. Yes, the only difference between JK’s version made of raw silk and this linen outlay by Quince. This cloth feels nice on the touch due to its smoothness, and it also has a cotton lining for maximum comfort on the skin.
It has pockets that are so well placed that they give the illusion of slightly contoured hips. The back can be adjusted using smocking as well as drawstrings, and it also comes with a side zipper fastening. Again, this is too large in sizes like that. Therefore, I suggest you choose one less than your usual size.
2: Quince 100% Organic Cotton Striped Crew Sweater
I swapped the turtleneck for a crew neck and the 100% cotton sweaters from Quince are some of the best. I don’t think you will find better quality anywhere else. Once again, this striped knit is another dupe for Jenni Kayne but this time it’s the Chloe Sweater by the same designer. The fitting is identical to that of a boxy relaxed fit through the body, loose long sleeves, and double-layered collar.
However, besides having such high quality and natural look, which makes it feel so luxurious, one last thing about this piece that feels very elevated is how its sleeve stripes match up with those on its torso, showing purposeful design. It also looks like it could be heavyweight as well as being good-quality cotton fabric. Additionally, this is great choice for late summer or in between seasons transitioning into cooler climates too. This gives me a slouchy fit, which I love (pairing nicely with loose linen shorts) because I’ve sized up two sizes here. If you’re petite,Here are the Ten Best Pieces to Buy from Quince 2024
I would suggest ordering your normal size. Even though there are several different colorations to choose from, like speckled beige & ivory (including an espresso with a white stripe—chic! ),. So all in all, this organic cotton piece is wotrth every penny considering that it costs approximately $60 in total from these stores that have been selling it at discount prices online.
WEARING:
Size L (up two sizes as I craved a super relaxed fit). It measures 70 cm underarm to underarm and 58 cm long
3: Quince 100% European Linen Long Sleeve Shirt
This is the perfect linen shirt if you are looking for one. I have tried quite a few, and I must say this checks all the boxes if you want a classic option. I like my shirting to be a bit relaxed, so I have gone up two sizes to get that loose feel (I suggest doing the same if you like this fit!). Because it breathes and feels cool on hot days, linen is wonderful. Not only that, but the more you wear it, the softer it will become.
This has enough heft to give some shape and structure while still having an easy drape that style looks good on me. Available in an array of colours, most of which are totally opaque (white or ivory). For lighter colours, I would suggest wearing them with skin-coloured undergarments. These ones have a higher thread density than UNIQLO linen shirts by Quince in particular. You might as well try them with matching bottoms too!Here are the Ten Best Pieces to Buy from Quince 2024
WEARING:
Size L (up two sizes as I craved a super relaxed fit). It measures 55 cm underarm to underarm and is 74 cm long
4: Quince 100% European Linen Wide Leg Pants
We should start by considering the price. It is unreal—less than forty dollars! Price-to-quality ratio makes me love Quince a lot (and suggest it to many of my styling clients); hardly any other brands out there are giving so much value (an amazing thing achieved through their D2C model). Various styles of linen trousers are available at Quince, but these ones are my favorites and they suit the best. Most people will find that these are high-waisted.
However, the waist band is thick and substantial without cutting into the skin, and you can even cinch it with a matching tie complete with silver metal trim. Moreover, they offer an extensive range of colors. For lighter colors, these are not lined; hence, if you’re worried about opacity, I would advise sticking to darker colors, as you can see pocket outline (cotton lined) for light colored ones. I like that they go all the way down and aren’t made too large.
WEARING:
Size S (fits true to size). Measures 35 cm across waist laid flat, 54 cm across hip, 103 cm long and 76 cm inseam
5: Quince Vintage Wash Tencel Camp Shirt
I have had this blouse in my wardrobe for a while now, and what really stands out about it is how smoothly the fabric hangs. It just hangs so well on me. Made of tencel 100%, the fabric is resistant to wrinkles; i adore such easily maintained clothes! The shirt is slightly gathered at the shoulder and then flares out into an interesting sleeve.
It reminds me of Madewell Courier Shirt but without pockets on the chest (and made of another material). This is a good choice for a light short-sleeve top, especially. If you live in warm areas, you’ll feel quite cool in it, as it is almost weightless when wearing it. The white color, however, can be quite transparent; therefore, one needs to wear skin-colored inner garments underneath.Here are the Ten Best Pieces to Buy from Quince 2024
WEARING:
Size S (fits true to size, though petites might like to size down one). It measures 62 cm underarm to underarm and is 73 cm long
6: Quince Mongolian Cashmere Oversized Crewneck Sweater
This Cashmere Oversized Crewneck Sweater is my absolute favourite item from Quince, if I had to choose just one. This has become my go-to outfit since the weather turned chilly because it is so comfy and can be worn with or without tucking in. It makes me think of a similar style that I purchased from Naadam a few years ago and that shed a tonne.
Except for being slightly less dense than other sweaters. This one feels plush; the cashmere that Quince sources is A-grade, and you can see listed on the Worn description that this particular knit is 15.8–16.2 microns thick and 7 gauge with fibres 34–36 mm long. Simple details, but very well done! The double collar in particular is really subtle but suggests something about its quality nature. But one thing you need to know is that yes, this will pill (mine began around wear 5-8).
This does not indicate bad quality. Even high-end branded cashmere sweaters will pill (my Jenni Kayne ones have as well as my cashmere knit from The Row). Taking care of your sweater is important—buy a good fabric shaver or a cashmere comb for occasional maintenance.
WEARING:
Size S (fits true to size for a relaxed fit. Petites may like to size down). It measures 57cm underarm to underarm and is 65cm long
My $50 Cashmere Crew gets the honourable mention. It is one of the first pieces I purchased from Quince, and I still argue that it is the best value for money in terms of cashmere knits. This cut is really traditional, making it a nice choice if you want to put on something when going to work, which can also serve you during the weekend. Just like that, go with your normal size since it has a perfect fit.Here are the Ten Best Pieces to Buy from Quince 2024
7: Quince 100% Washable Silk Maxi Skirt
The second item I like the most from Quince is 100% Silk Maxi Skirt that can be washed. Why did I single out “maxi,” you ask? Simple: I am so much in love with this full-length skirt because of its grace and refinement. These skirts have a broad, thick elastic band—hidden inside of them—that fits comfortably around the waist.
I wear size S and though it isn’t tight at the waist, I would not go for a smaller size—actually, the XS is too small! This to me is good news anyway because it means that there’s quite a bit of stretch; so, if it’s a heavier knit, I might still be able to get away with half tucking it in without worrying about getting bloated later on. It’s cut very well—miles ahead of Realization Par, whose silk skirt went viral years ago but caused me to bitch about its being all bubbly and whatnot on the hips.
To be honest, there’s nothing wrong with this one at all. Moreover, let me confirm that Quince washable silk pieces are machine-washable and they retain their good looks after washing. It feels like budget luxury, no less. They also have another option, which is shorter and called midi length.
WEARING:
Size S (true to size). It measures 35 cm across the waistband (unstretched), approximately 49 cm across the hip, and 105 cm long
8-Quince 100% Organic Cotton Oversized Cable Cardigan
The lightweight version is ideal for mild summers and good for the transition seasons. This texture feels great; I just love it. What a nice deep V, though. Those deep, dark brown tort buttons. So elegant! At the same time, let me say that in this review, I have mentioned Jenni Kayne several times but this one is definitely an affordable choice of their iconic knits.
These two items are very similar when compared, and I even prefer the Quince color range. Adding some texture to your look with an easy wardrobe staple is a perfect idea! Besides, it’s 100 percent cotton making it simple, breathable and washable at home without much fuss. It has a very generous fit so you might consider going down a size depending on what you like.Here are the Ten Best Pieces to Buy from Quince 2024
WEARING:
Size S (very relaxed fit; size down if petite). It measures 68 cm underarm to underarm and is 70 cm long
9: Quince Italian Leather Handwoven Pouch Crossbody Clutch
When I ordered for the very first time from Quince,. I immediately knew that they must be mine, even before checking out. The $50 cashmere crew and one of their leather bags.The first time was so impressive that I went ahead and ordered yet another bag model from Quince. The pouch has a cross-body clutch.I deliberately added this to my cart because I wanted style.
which would be ideal for some occasions but could still serve as an everyday type of bag with versatility.I chose this thinking it would be good for formal events but could also double up as another less-casual day-to-day purse.Because it is such.It’s okay in size, accommodating keys, iPhone Pro Maxs, cards, lipstick, sunglasses, etc. without being too big or bulky, and the snap closure is a magnet, which is an 8/10 on the scale for strength.Here are the Ten Best Pieces to Buy from Quince 2024
This item is not made using shabby materials at all and what’s more pleasing about it are the small straps attached to its sides . It comes in either smooth leather (simple elegance) or textured leather (rich texture). Both are amazing but your choice may depend on what you wish to express. For me, I like the slight sheen of the smooth leather, but if you crave texture, then the handwoven version is the one.
10: Quince Eco-Knit Milano Stitch Oversized Shirt Jacket
The last item I would like to mention from Quince’s top ten list is their Eco-Knit Oversized Shirt Jacket. So many people have praised Quince, but very few individuals have discussed this jacket. Although it feels as soft and smooth as silk,. It’s light and made of Lenzing fabric that’s eco-friendly; however, its warmth compares to a woven piece. In general, it has a generous fit, which creates a “cool” addition to an ensemble. I will mainly wear it open, like a jacket, while you can also decide to button or tuck in it whichever way you want. It also has usable front pockets as well.Here are the Ten Best Pieces to Buy from Quince 2024
WEARING:
Size S (relaxed/oversized fit; recommend sizing down if petite). It measures 59 cm underarm to underarm and is 79 cm long
Honourable Mentions
Quince Featherweight Cashmere Ribbed Tank What I really love about this is its weightiness. It’s a very fine-gauge knit, which gives it that special, precious feeling, even if it’s not “delicate”. Except for when I put on white. The bra’s color can hardly be seen because of the kind of see-throughness it has. The yarn’s heaviness and density help make it look like something that can be used in all seasons; others may call it a year-rounder. It fits true to size.
Quince Italian Wool Double-Breasted Slouch Coat Granted. I haven’t had a chance to try this one myself yet, but I would recommend it to my styling clients in a heartbeat. It’s just below $200, but if you told me it retailed at double or triple that price range, I’d believe you. It really does look luxurious. The shade range is limited—camel and black only—but both are versatile and timeless colour options, in my opinion. If you’re spending this much on a coat, it needs to go with everything else in your wardrobe.
Quince Tencel Rib Knit Maxi Slip Dress Showstopper is the one word that describes it best. This dress has been cut in ways that I cannot even begin to comprehend. There’s just something about how well it hugs the curves, too. There is also some kind of slight bubble effect along the hemline. Witch seems to emphasize the hourglass figure concept—gathered at the waistline, though not so tight around the chest area. While there aren’t many tight dresses among those that I have, this one always makes me feel fabulous. Whenever I have worn it previously,. The fabrication of super stretchy, lightweight tencel blend material . But stick with what you usually wear here or no larger than your regular size
