What To Buy (And Skip!) At Quince - The Mom Edit

Mar 04, 2025

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 let’s 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 we’ve reviewed, loved + put to the real-life test. Here is a large, Team-wide collection of ’em plus one piece to be wary of…

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 (we’re diligent and definitely discern) so go view ’em for the ultimate showcase. (More reviews of lotsofstuff here on our YouTube channel.)

Let’s get into our personal picks from Quince.

sweater (S)

Quince’s Mongolian Cashmere Turtleneck is a standard black turtleneck that I was trying to find (unsuccessfully) at Naadam. It’s a classic cut, a little longer in the body, and, again, has sleeves that fit (without feeling like they’ve skimped on fabric). – S

cardigan (L)

The most luxurious cashmere cardigan that’s not only a top wardrobe staple of mine, but will be with me forever. – Amy

The Quince Mongolian Cashmere Oversized Boyfriend Cardigan Sweater is so cozy and easy to style for fall. However, note that Quince is not joking about the sweater being oversized. I typically wear a medium or large on top, but above, I’m wearing a size small. If you’re petite and worried that this oversized cardigan will overwhelm you, Quince just released a cropped version of the sweater that might work better for you. I love throwing this cardigan on over any casual work-from-home outfits because the cashmere material keeps me toasty, and the style is so classic. – Anne

sweater (S)

Quince’s Mongolian Cashmere Crew (wearing a size small) is one of my favorite pieces ordered. It’s the perfect light neutral and the fit, as I mentioned above, is just slouchy enough. It’s also thin enough to tuck, if I ever want to do that. – S

sweater (M)

I love that the neck comes up high enough on both of the sweaters I’m chatting about here to layer a basic crewneck tee underneath without it showing too much. (These are my fave tees if you’re wondering.) This cotton sweater is so soft without being too drapey and I love how it has held up without stretching out. – Laura

sweater (M)

This stitch pattern helps minimize piling and holds the fibers together better, another reason I go for a fisherman sweater. Ooh and they now have a turtleneck version in this same gorgeous stitch. The fit is true to size for just a bit of an oversized fit. I’m thinking I’ll add this in navy this year. Quince has a bunch of lovely color options. – Laura

cardigan (L)

Quince’s Australian Merino Wool Cable Collared Cardigan is just as pretty in person as I’d hoped it would be. Erase whatever itchy image comes into your mind when you hear the word “wool”, because merino wool is soft and calm to the touch.

I think the most charming part about this cardigan is the sizing. It’s just right, in every way. The cardigan isn’t oversized, like my first love from Quince, but it isn’t tight or “fitted” either. Quince nailed the drape, the longer, comfier sleeves, and the relaxed length is in that sweet spot to be worn either closed or left open. – Amy

sweater (L)

Quince’s cotton sweaters are so, so good. I just recently tried this cotton mockneck sweater and am officially in love with this affordable style. Above, I’m 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 with wide-leg jeans and cozy shearling booties (also from Quince, and I love them so much) makes me feel like I’m pulled together while I run my least fun errands (read: a trip to the post office with no stops for iced coffee). – Anne

tee (L)

Is there anything more luxurious than 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 (I’m wearing size large) and is available in a ton of different colors. I’ve purchased cashmere items from brands like Uniqlo and J.Crew in the past, and I don’t think there is any trade-off in quality with the Quince cashmere material. – Anne

coat (M)

This pretty Quince coat stands out for its material. Made from 100% merino wool, it’s 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 – the lighter weight means the attached scarf doesn’t stay in place quite as securely as I want it to. But I still love.

coat (L)

The Quince Italian Wool Cocoon Coat, on the other hand, feels lighter. The coat is lined, but the lining simply isn’t as thick, and the coat is really better suited to a mildly cold climate.

The Quince coat 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. – Anne

bag

This style of shoulder bag has been sooo popular and after trying out a few, I get why. The size holds a lot (like, al of the usual purse stuff plus my water bottle) and it’s comfy to wear. Quince’s feels rich and durable, and the clean, handwoven design is really sophisticated. Practical and affordable (compared to the other designer versions!).

bag

The Italian Leather Crossbody purse 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

Laura also loves the similar woven crescent bag – watch her video, here.

suitcase

The Quince 24” Checked suitcase is in front, my Away Medium suitcase is right behind it. So far the only difference I’ve 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. – Laura

Apple watch band

A recent buy! I’ve been a fan of Shana’s Hermes leather wrap Apple Watch band since I spotted it on her wrist years ago, but couldn’t stomach the price. THEN I saw this one on Quince’s site (in 5 colors) for under $40 and pulled the trigger immediately. Love it so much (+ get tons of compliments!).

top (S) | shorts (S)

Quince’s silk pajamas are the most affordable option I’ve found, yet the cut is exactly what I was looking for. Quince has five color options, but my favorite is easily the black. – Shana

skirt (M)

A silky skirt became a wardrobe must-have for me last year and after comparing this one to J.Crew and a few from Nordstrom, it wasn’t even close – 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. – Amy

Slip skirts have made a fashion come back in a big way this season, and I couldn’t be happier. This slip skirt is a midi length, but Quince also offers a washable silk skirt in a maxi length. I tried on the midi skirt in both the size large and x-large, and while both fit, I preferred the drape of the x-large (for reference, I’m typically a size 14 or 32 in jeans). If you’re pear-shaped like me, I would recommend purchasing the size that will best fit your hips and then tailoring the waist if necessary (that’s what I did – taking the waist in cost me about $20, and it was worth it to get a great fit in such a classic piece). Above, I’m wearing the navy color, but this skirt now comes in over ten colors, and Quince seems to be adding new colors every season, so there’s something for everyone. I love the contrast of the navy silk with the trendier green apple color of the sweater. – Anne

dress (M)

This dress is washable silk and has lovely lines. And it is under $90. I’m wearing the medium here and it fits great and feels even better. I have always loved a slip dress but haven’t found the right one in the past few years…turns out this is it. This is offered in a small range of other gorgeous shades in sizes XS – XL. Thankfully, Quince has now added it in plus sizes here in 3 pretty shades. – Laura

The 100% Washable Silk Slip Dress is my favorite of the silk dress styles that Quince has released. I tried on this dress in both the large and x-large sizes and, just like the midi skirt, I decided to keep the x-large because I thought it best fit my hips (again, I typically wear a size 14 and am 5’5″ for reference). The straps are adjustable, which makes it fit better for multiple sizes on top, and the length of the hem is similar to the midi skirt. I love how versatile the style is. I’ve worn this dress with combat boots and a chunky sweater over the top or with a feminine cardigan and heels, like below. I also layer formfitting tees underneath the dress for an even more nostalgic ’90s-inspired look. – Anne

swimsuit

I really 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 kids…or as a pseudo tank top with a pair of shorts or a little skirt thrown over it. But, alas, it didn’t live up to my high hopes.

I’m 5′ 3″ and have a short torso, so there seemed to be extra fabric and I had to put the adjustable straps to the shortest setting, making those little buckle things show up right above where the strap starts on the front (and for the record they didn’t feel like they’d stay put in the buckle.) There wasn’t any real compression that I could sense around the stomach area. Pros were…even though it’s white, it’s not see-through and the bra area was, while I wouldn’t say supportive, it wasn’t without any support. – Ange
