A retailer that has been sparking loads of conversations between our team of Editors is Quince. Their quality is (usually) kind of outstanding, prices are hard to beat, and letโs just say they take a lot of inspiration from the big guys in terms of fashion. A unicorn of a retailer, some may say!
So, in the spirit of well-thought out purchases + being as helpful as we can possibly be, we compiled a list of our favorite Quince pieces that weโve reviewed, loved + put to the real-life test. Here is a large, Team-wide collection of โem plus one piece to be wary ofโฆ
Lucky for you, the majority of these pieces are not only reviewed in their own posts, but also in videos. (I linked all in each blurb.) We take pride in our reviews (weโre diligent and definitely discern) so go view โem for the ultimate showcase. (More reviews of lotsofstuff here on our YouTube channel.)
Letโs get into our personal picks from Quince.

Our Top Picks Right Now
1. Quince 100% Organic Cotton Boyfriend Crew Sweater
sweaterย (M) | (S)
Amy says: I think my favorite part of this sweater is the interesting bottom hem which curves up in front, making it a far more elevated option in comparison to other boyfriend sweaters that can simply run boxy. The ribbed detailing on the cuffs and hems isย gorgeous. I also always appreciate a dropped shoulder for ultra comfort, and the sleeves are slightly longer than your average (which I adore).

Shana says: This 100% cotton sweater is one of my very favorite things from Quince. Itโs comfy and has great drape, and the shape is spot-on perfect. One of the cutest (and easiest) pieces for throwing on with shorts or jeans. Love it.
2. Quince Leather Wrap Apple Watch Band
A recent buy! Iโve been a fan of Shanaโs Hermes leather wrap Apple Watch band since I spotted it on her wrist years ago, but couldnโt stomach the price. THEN I saw this one on Quinceโs site (in 5 colors) for under $40 and pulled the trigger immediately. Love it so much (+ get tons of compliments!).
3. Quince 100% Washable Silk Slip Dress
dress (M) | (S)
Laura says: I rarely wear silky slinky pieces like this anymore but I felt so great in it! I like having it in black as a go-to easy summer pieces that wonโt take up much room in the suitcase either. And washable silk is alway the best silk in my book. This simple dress would be perfect for wedding season.

Shana says:ย Gahhhh โ sorry about the rather severe-looking photo. Itโs from a quick IG Reel about how amazing this dress is. (Full disclosure: Iโm exchanging the leopard print for either navy, floral or red โ canโt decide. But I already own a Ref dress in leopard, so.) ANYWAY: this dress is freaking amazing. No notes. It might beโฆTHE best thing Iโve tried from Quince?? Fits TTS. Shockingly good.
4. Quince European Linen Napkins (Set of 12)
Shana says: Quinceโs linen napkins are SUCH a find. While theyโre still pricey, if you order a set of 12, the price drops to under $6 per napkin (a huge savings compared to other brands). Iโve been really happy with our charcoal linen set โ they wash and dry well, and the seams have been holding up perfectly over the last year Iโve owned them. I also own these napkins in whiteโฆbut my all-natural laundry detergent doesnโt get them as clean as Iโd like, haha. (Definitely more of a โmeโ problem than a Quince problem.
5. Quince Check-In Hard Shell Suitcase
Laura says: The Quince 24โ Checked suitcaseย is in front, my Away Medium suitcase is right behind it. So far the only difference Iโve noticed is the Quince is slightly lighter in weight. I love it and it seems to be such a comparable option for a fraction of the price.
6. Quince Italian V Neck Bikini Top & High Rise Bottoms
bikini top (left: L, right: M) | bikini bottoms (M)
Laura says: Oh hiii Quince. Nicely done! These swimsuits are remenescent of the Left On Friday above, but at Quinceโs fab prices. They arenโt quite as well made IMO and donโt feel quite as secure/like a hug on your body but they are great for the price! The bottoms here are higher cut on the leg but still in-between as far as cheek factor. I much preferred the fit of the M top here. These run true to size. Iโm loving this color combo!

7. Quince 100% Mulberry Silk Pillowcase
Shana says: While Iโve only owned this pillowcase for two weeks now, I cannot believe how similar it is to Slipโs! So far, itโs washed and dried like a champ โ although silk pillowcases never really last more than a year. Which, honestly, is why I tried Quinceโs version. Really, really impressed โ I highly recommend this piece!
8. Quince Italian Leather Woven Tote Bag
Laura says: This bag looks gorgeous on, feels great, has long enough straps for comfortable carrying and holds what I need with room for shopping or other on-the-go pieces I might pick up along the way. I took this to Philly and DC with me recently, too, and it was a great day bag for bopping around Georgetown or running back and forth to the TME office with my laptop. It does have a couple of interior pockets, too, which, #necessary. I love it and want another color.

9. Quince Scoop Neck Linen Midi Dress
dressย (M) | (S)
Laura says: The fit is fab. The linen is great. It has pockets. I feel great in it. It has stretch at the back so it fits well. It has a back slit for ease of movement. Itโs not too fancy but feels so good on and made me feel great about myself! True to size. Linen will give a bit with wear, so I wouldnโt size up unless truly between sizes.
Read more from Laura, here.
Shana says:ย I just shot a YouTube video comparing this dress to the Jenni Kayne Rove dress. I get into all of the details in that video, but to quickly summarize: this Quince version isnโt bad in navy, black and mayyyyybe chocolate brown. Iโd skip the lighter colors and the prints. Also, the side zipper can sometimes bunch out (you can see it happening on the left side of the dress). Itโs a small thing, though, so for the price, this dress is pretty good.
10. Quince Cotton Striped Crewneck Sweater
sweaterย (S)
Laura says: This sweater is just lovely. Itโs also made beautifully, like the cardigan above, out of 100% cotton. It feels fancy and so well made and impressive for the price. I love it. Iโve stopped sizing up in sweaters like these because I think the proportions are more flattering on my frame when they arenโt too loose or long. TTS though. And the pants? Theyโre the perfect weight (better than Spanx IMO) and a great basic go-to.

Quince Linen: A Review
MAYBE: Quince 100% European Linen Pleated Trouser
pants (6)
Shana says: These arenโt bad!! Once again, theyโre lined in 100% cotton (fully lined, not just to the knee) and the trouser details are great. The fit is spot-on (at least for me), but I suspect they might be too short (Iโm 5โ3โ and would only need the tiniest hem, if any). The bum isnโt amazing, but itโs really not bad considering itโs LINEN. A solid purchase.
MAYBE: Quince 100% European Linen Fitted Tank
tankย (M), pantsย (M) | tank (S)
Laura says: This was an unexpected top find. I didnโt think this set would work well on me and while the top is a little bit long, I freaking love this. It is even better in person than it photographs and the red is so fun. The back has ruching around the zipper and the zipper zips up instead of down, making it much easier to get on yourself! The straps are a little bit long for me but thatโs an easy fix, and they do have a couple of button hole options for those with longer torsos.
TTS with a little bit of room in the pants which I often have trouble with. The top is fitted but with the back ruching is so comfortable, even on this gal who has a wide ribcage and trouble fitting into tops like this.
Shana says: While I do appreciate that this top is soft (itโs fully lined in 100% cotton), and the straps are adjustable, the top overall was too tight, so sizing up is best (especially if you carry your weight in your middle, like I do). Overall, though, despite the lining, thereโs a sheer-ish quality to the top that I find unflattering (especially when combined with the tightness). Iโd skip the lighter colors altogether, and size up on the darker colors.
YES: 100% European Linen Shorts
shorts (M)
Amy says: A shorts x sweater combo is probably myย mostย favorite outfit pairing in transitional weather โ itโs the ultimate comfort formula for me! Be it longer bermuda shorts, layered with an athletic or boxer short for a day-off, or my current go-to,ย an eye-catching pair of linen shortsย โ itโs all a knock out.ย

YES: Quince European Linen Short Sleeve Shirt
shirtย (M)
Laura says: I adore this shirt. Itโs kind of a camp shirt style and has all the right elements. The linen is quality but not too heavy, the cut is perfect here and I am a sucker for a good black pinstripe, always.
Read more from Laura, here.
YES: Quince European Linen Shorts Pajama Set
PJ setย (M)
Laura says: This is so cute and totally wearable beyond just for pajamas. I adore this set and love that itโs so versatile. TTS with room in the hips/butt and doesnโt pull across the chest. These are two common issues I have with pjs and sets and pull-on style/drawstring pants. LOVE this set.
Read more from Laura, here.
YES: Quince Linen Structured Blazer
blazerย (M)ย
Laura says: This structured blazer is great and I adore anything linen + pinstripes. This runs a little more fitted than the other pieces but for that reason would be great for the office.ย Fits true to size here, but if you run larger in the shoulders you might consider going up. Though linen will give a bit. Cotton lined so that will give with wear, too, unlike having a poly lining, etc.

YES: Quince Linen Swing Dress
dressย (M)
Laura says: This was so cute on the model that I had to try and while I think with these sandals itโs not as โmeโ as Iโd like, I do love the dress. It would be breezy and awesome for hot days. Itโs so well made and has structure in the bottom hem too though so it feels like it will stay put when you move if that makes senseโฆitโs not too breezy lol.ย True to size and didnโt pull at the bust buttons (I have a 34DD for reference.).

YES: Quince Linen Wide Leg Pants
pantsย (M)ย
Laura says: True to size and fit well. I โthinkโ this is the 28โณ length but gosh the receipts donโt say what length I ordered. It could be the 30โณ since I have platforms on. Gahh sorry friends. Lots going on. Iโm 5โ4โณ in height though.
Read more from Laura, here.
NO: Quince Linen Fit & Flare Midi Dress
dressย (M)
Laura says:ย This is so cute, eh? Yeah, it didnโt zip over my ribcage. This has been a forever problem for me since like high school. SO annoying. BUT, if you like Reformationโs Everett dress give this a try.ย Too tight around the ribcage for me, but sizing up would be too big elsewhere. Better for more hourglass figures or slim ribcages.

Quince Silk: A Review
YES: Quince 100% Washable Silk Skirt
skirt (M)
Amy says: A silky skirt became a wardrobe must-have for me last year and after comparingย this oneย to J.Crew and a few from Nordstrom, it wasnโt even close โ Quince is easily the best. Sure, you can dress it up, but my fave go-to is an oversized graphic tee, or a big sweater once the weather turns cold.
Read more from Amy, here.
MAYBE: Quince Washable Silk Pajamas
Shana says:ย Quinceโs silk pajamasย are the most affordable option Iโve found, yet the cut is exactly what I was looking for.ย Quince has five color options, but my favorite is easily the black. UPDATE: After a ton of washes, these will start to unravel at the hem. Considering the price (and how often theyโve been washed) I still think theyโre worth it, but these wonโt hold up as well over time as more expensive brands.

Quince Cotton: A Review
YES: 100% Organic Cotton Poplin Maxi Dressย
dressย (s)
Linzi says: Style, details, fit, and fabric were all wins for me; the type ofย dressย I wear on repeat all summer; definitely stood out in the 24-dress-try-on as looking and feeling higher end than the price โlooks at home next to my La Ligne and Staud dresses in my closet for sure; pockets; smocked back; adjustable straps. BUTโฆI didnโt love the white color; I didnโt like the way the seams on the top of the white dress showed up more than the black (full-disclosureโฆIโm NEVER a white dress kind of gal).
Read more from Linzi, here.
YES: Organic Cotton Fisherman Boxy Cropped Cardigan
cardigan (S)
Laura says: The construction and fit of this are both gorgeous. I love that it has some structure and isnโt drape-y all over the place. I feel like on my shorter torso that winds up looking better overall, especially if Iโm wearing it all day (traveled to Philly in it!) The length is perfect, too.
Read more from Laura, here.
YES: 100% Organic Cropped Cotton Polo Sweater
sweater (L)
Amy says:ย Iโve been a longtime lover of nautical stripes, but I love how this sweater takes it a step more modern with the preppy collar. This style feels true to my favorite warm weather go-to looks while being fresh and updated in the actual fit and details.
Read more from Amy, here.
YES: Quince 100% Organic Cotton Fisherman Sweater
sweater (M)
Laura says:ย I love that the neck comes up high enough on both of the sweaters Iโm chatting about here to layer a basic crewneck tee underneath without it showing too much. (These are my fave teesย if youโre wondering.) This cotton sweater is so soft without being too drapey and I love how it has held up without stretching out.

YES: Quince The Cotton Mockneck Sweater
sweater (L)
Anne says: Quinceโs cotton sweaters are so, so good. I just recently tried this cotton mockneck sweater and am officially in love with this affordable style. Above, Iโm wearing the sweater in a size large, and it is oversized. I like the casual fit, but I might pick this up in a size medium in a different color in the future so I can style the sweater for an office-friendly look. Matching the mockneck withย wide-leg jeansย andย cozy shearling bootiesย (also from Quince, and I love them so much) makes me feel like Iโm pulled together while I run my least fun errands (read: a trip to the post office with no stops for iced coffee).

YES: Quince Organic Comfort Stretch Chore Jacket
Jacketย (M)
Laura says: I was surprised how soft this jacket felt when I first put it on. Usually utility jackets can be too heavy or structured, especially for warmer months, but this is perfect. Itโs not too lightweight and holds its shape, but the softness makes me want to grab it always as my go-to when Iโm wearing a sleeveless or short sleeved top.

Quince Cashmere: A Review
YES: Quince Mongolian Cashmere Oversized Boyfriend Cardigan
cardigan (L)
Amy says: The most luxurious cashmere cardiganย thatโs not only a top wardrobe staple of mine, but will be with me forever.

YES: Quince Mongolian Cashmere Fisherman Sweater
sweater (M)
Laura says:ย This stitch pattern helps minimize piling and holds the fibers together better, another reason I go for a fisherman sweater. Ooh and they now haveย a turtleneck versionย in this same gorgeous stitch. The fit is true to size for just a bit of an oversized fit. Iโm thinking Iโll add this in navy this year. Quince has a bunch of lovely color options.
Read more from Laura, here.
YES: Quince Mongolian Cashmere Crewneck Sweater
sweater (S)
Shana says:ย Quinceโs Mongolian Cashmere Crewย (wearing a size small) is one of my favorite pieces ordered. Itโs the perfect light neutral and the fit, as I mentioned above, is just slouchy enough. Itโs also thin enough to tuck, if I ever want to do that.
Read more from S, here.
YES: Quince Cashmere Turtleneck Sweater
sweater (S)
Shana says: Quinceโs Mongolian Cashmere Turtleneckย is a standard black turtleneck that I wasย trying to find (unsuccessfully) at Naadam. Itโs a classic cut, a little longer in the body, and, again, has sleeves that fit (without feeling like theyโve skimped on fabric).
Read more from S, here.
YES: Quince Mongolian Cashmere Tee
tee (L)
Anne says:ย Is there anything more luxurious thanย a cashmere t-shirt?? I was skeptical that I needed this in my wardrobe, but once I put it on, I was convinced. I love that the tee is form-fitting, so I can tuck it into jeans or trousers easily. The tee runs true-to-size for me (Iโm wearing size large) and is available in a ton of different colors. Iโve purchased cashmere items from brands like Uniqlo and J.Crew in the past, and I donโt think there is any trade-off in quality with the Quince cashmere material.

Quince Wool: A Review
YES: Quince Merino Wool Cable Cardigan
cardigan (L)
Amy says:ย Quinceโs Australian Merino Wool Cable Collared Cardiganย is just as pretty in person as Iโd hoped it would be. Erase whatever itchy image comes into your mind when you hear the word โwoolโ, becauseย merinoย wool is soft and calm to the touch.
I think the most charming part about this cardigan is the sizing. Itโs just right, in every way. The cardigan isnโt oversized, like my first love from Quince, but it isnโt tight or โfittedโ either. Quince nailed the drape, the longer, comfier sleeves, and the relaxed length is in that sweet spot to be worn either closedย orย left open.

YES: Quince Double-Faced Merino Wool Scarf Coat
coat (M)
This pretty Quince coat stands out for its material. Made from 100% merino wool, itโsย notably soft & comfortable. The double-faced fabric offers a substantial feel without being heavy, making it a great option for everyday wear, almost like a sweater-coat. Just know โ the lighter weight means the attached scarf doesnโt stay in place quite as securely as I want it to. But I still love.

Watch Shanaโs video (comparing it to Totemeโs & Amazonโs versions!), here.
YES: Quince Italian Wool Cocoon Coat
coat (L)
Anne says:ย The Quince Italian Wool Cocoon Coat, on the other hand, feels lighter. The coat is lined, but the lining simply isnโt as thick, and the coat is really better suited to a mildly cold climate.
The Quince coatย embraces a minimalist design, focusing on the quality of the Italian wool to provide a sleek, tailored silhouette. Kat saw me wearing this coat and immediately noted the design of the pockets, which are sleek rather than bulky. The curve of the pocket cut mirrors the line of the collar on the coat, which is aesthetically pleasing.

Quince Bags: A Review
YES: Quince Italian Leather Crossbody Bag
Laura says:ย The Italian Leather Crossbody purseย is such a cute option for a smaller bag that packs a lot of punch to an outfit. I love that the handles are interchangeable with others I have so I can add some pattern or keep it chic with the included handle. The leather is such great quality and has held up so well!

Laura also loves the similar woven crescent bag โ watch her video, here.
Quince Swim: A Review
NO: Quince Italian Cami One-Piece Swimsuit
Ange says: I reallyย wanted to love this swimsuit. It gave Andie vibes and I loved that it was unfussy yet chic, and sporty enough to wear just hanging out at the pool with the kidsโฆor as a pseudo tank top with a pair of shorts or a little skirt thrown over it. But, alas, it didnโt live up to my high hopes.ย
Iโm 5โฒ 3โณ and have a short torso, so there seemed to be extra fabric and I had to put the adjustable straps to theย shortest setting, making thoseย little buckle things show up right above where the strap starts on theย front (and for the record they didnโt feel like theyโd stay put in the buckle.) There wasnโt any real compression that I could sense around the stomach area. Pros wereโฆeven though itโs white, itโs not see-through and the bra area was, while I wouldnโt say supportive, it wasnโt without any support.ย ย
Quince Home: A Review
YES: Quince 100% Mulberry Silk Pillowcase:
Shana says: While Iโve only owned this pillowcase for two weeks now, I cannot believe how similar it is to Slipโs! So far, itโs washed and dried like a champ โ although silk pillowcases never really last more than a year. Which, honestly, is why I tried Quinceโs version. Really, really impressed โ I highly recommend this piece!
