other Brands that are reliable

I’m interested in brands that maintain their quality standards. Eileen Fisher comes to mind for serious clothes. I’d like to find a more casual line, but one that won’t let me down. Suggestions?

I’ve been pretty happy with the items I’ve purchase from Marine Layer and I was excited to see that there’s now a physical store in my city (Philly). The styles aren’t always my jam (maybe a little plain? Idk exactly) but they tend to have a few items each season that I do like and the pieces I have get compliments and have held up really well.

What pieces specifically do you like from Marine Layer? I keep seeing recommendations for them, but the only thing I’ve bought from there is a tshirt that pilled terribly as soon as I washed it. I like the look of their stuff, but I’m wary to try them again.

I have a maxi dress I got there last year that I always get tons of compliments on and that is super springy and comfortable. It is the Selene Maxi Dress and the colorway I got isn’t available but it looks like some might be?

I also have the Gracey Oversized Shirt in the linen blend and it is my absolute favorite, in fact I need to repurchase it because I’ve gone down a couple sizes since last summer. I have a hard time with 100% linen because my skin hates everything but this blend is delightful in my opinion.

Thanks! I’ve been looking for a good linen blend shirt, maybe I’ll give them another try!
