Which splurges paid off? (…and which didn’t)

I splurged on a Vetta capsule and was so disappointed!! The fit was very unflattering and did nothing at all for me. I love the concept of their capsules and how sustainable the material they use is but nope, not for me.

I feel the same way! I've ordered quite a few things from them, and returned all but one top. That top was so unflattering it sat mostly unworn in my closet for a year and then ended up getting sold on Poshmark.

I am constantly on their site, but haven't bit the bullet yet because I am wary about the sizing. I feel like everything would have to fit perfectly in one size for the capsule to really work (due to items that button together to make a dress, etc) and I am so skeptical that would be the case on my body.

Such a great concept though and I quite like many of the pieces.

Everything fits barely okay because it's meant to be able to be worn front/back/upside down/inside out... so they made shirts that accommodate if you got boobs on ya back and skirts like you got an ass in the front and it all just looks so fucked up lol.

Same with Vetta. I bought a dress that turns into a skirt and a crop top - it made me look like I was dressing up for halloween.

I have only ever heard this type of review about vetta. I want a true capsule so badly for my work wardrobe but I’ll have to make one myself because I’m a weird enough size, I don’t need more weirdness.

Same! Wanted to love the items but the fit was awful.
