![]() Even their Nova Vintage section, which is supposed to be all classic, vintage pieces, are not much different from the rest of the site. Everything is the latest off-the-runway trend that will be expired in a month. There is nothing worth buying that will stand the test of time. This brand is the opposite of sustainable fashion-it will fill your closet with options that you will only use once or twice. While there is no denying that FashionNova is trendy, trendy does not equate to fashionable. Several other times were pilling or severely wrinkled after washing them. As we all know, jumpsuits are not easy to go to the bathroom in, and upon trying to do just that, one of the straps snapped off. The first item I wore was a strappy long-pant jumpsuit. They were brand new items that were already fringing from the seams and made with cheap material. Immediately upon receiving the clothes, I could tell that it was poorly manufactured. I got about 10 items and can count on one hand the number of times I wore all of them. I made one purchase from FashionNova to see what the rage was about. It Lasts For 4 Wears (If You’re Lucky) - Yes, That Says “Wears” Not “Years” What looks great on the models in the photo is not going to look good on 90% of women. While, we all would like to have such assets, most of us do not. FashionNova is tailored toward curvy, big bottom, big breasted women. While they emphasize ethnic diversity, there is not much body type diversity. The next reason you should shop elsewhere is because this brand was not designed for everyone. They have also been challenged for unethical labor practices. The customer service is terrible, the shipping is slow and there are several complaints of people never even receiving their clothes. ![]() That’s truly disgraceful for a brand of this size. But the average rating on the BBB is 1.4 stars. This section should speak for itself without you needing to read further. They Have 1 Star on the Better Business Bureau They have some modest clothes but nothing worth buying for the other reasons mentioned in this post. Everything about the brand screams scandalous (and not in a good way). In fact, its difficult to find things on the site that you would want to wear to your parent’s or in-laws house. If you’re anything like me, the word is “trashy.” The first page of the site is polluted with boobs and butts, the “clothing” that they are trying to sell is not the star in any of the images. Before you roll your eyes at this section, go to the FashionNova website or Instagram feed and tell me the first word that comes to your mind. Follow /CosmoBeauty.I tried to think of a better adjective to describe the brand and inevitably, was unsuccessful. Get non-boring fashion and beauty news directly in your feed. Seemingly, things are already looking up! Reps for Fashion Nova added that new photos with different models are already scheduled to take place soon and are specifically for the Curve section of the site. In fact, we plan to offer all styles in by the end of 2017! Our plus section has had an exceptional response since we launched. We believe that our clothing empowers women of all sizes. ![]() The clothes we offer for regular and plus sizes are the same outfits, not separate lines, like most other companies do. We believe that all women should dress confident and sexy regardless of their weight. On that page, we repost our customers' pictures. We launched Fashion Nova Curve for the curvy and confident only three months ago, and our Instagram account has already got almost 300,000 followers. ![]() Update 4/4 3:12 p.m.: Fashion Nova issued the following statement regarding its recent curvy modeling controversy: Fashion Nova would like to emphasize the fact that we are never looking to discriminate. Smaller models don't have to be the industry standard when a full range of models is available, and brands that carry extended sizes should be leading that charge. It's great that Fashion Nova caters to a range of sizes but actually seeing curvy girls wearing the clothes is important too. The added cost of hiring two models to wear the same outfit, one straight-size and one plus, could also be a factor. According to Yahoo Style, there are many reasons Fashion Nova could be using straight-size models over size 14-and-above girls, such as the fact that many modeling agencies think "plus" starts at size 8, even as most plus-size brands rarely make clothes smaller than a size 12. ![]()
