As a Canadian, I also agree with the high cost of ordering from Arket in USD, not to mention added taxes and duties. Having just returned from a trip to London, I was so excited to be able to visit an Arket store in person - but to be honest I was completely underwhelmed with the selection, quality and prices in both the Regent Street and Covent Garden locations and left with nothing. I found several similar items of comparable quality at less than half the price at good old Marks & Spencer! (I do agree that the Arket t shirts are excellent though!)

Also Canadian and by the time you pay taxes, duties and factor USA dollars you're paying double the price. Sad but not overly surprised the quality is not great.

Ok I have to confess I’ve just seen the Arket sales email and started looking for reviews especially on the short linen cotton coat , great timing of your video 😍 I think the collar drapes funny, the only other review I could find said that you would wear the collar folded but it just reminds me of the Chloe collar in cotton fabric from Sezane where it just sits awkwardly. Definitely putting the striped cotton top jumper in the basket, plus a couple of t shirts. I’m hmm and haaing about the striped boucle jacket, do you have any opinions on that style? Also have you tried any of their blazers ? Or would you recommend the curated fit . Thanks!! 🥰

Yay to grabbing the striped jumper on sale! I haven’t had a chance to try on their blazers yet but I’ve read great things about them. I just need to find the right colour in my size ☺️

I’m very confused by Arket coats. Even U.K. XS (size 6) is massive and sack like on me. This is for trench, pea coats etc. But interesting to know about the T shirts! Will get those!

Their jackets are really oversized! The size guide is normally quite helpful though - but I did make a few mistakes in the beginning!

I would love to get the tshirt in navy, but they dont have it in eu.

i reckon it'll be restocked soon - they seem to rotate their colours :)

Jacket - looks too big and the collar sits funny. On one instance it looked like umm…()…once you see it can’t unsee it

🤣🤣 oh dear!

I dont except sloppy garments. Arket is pretty pricey. Shame on them sending of a peace like that sweater with side trimning.
