ADVERTISING
As content creation is our business and how we earn our living you will see advertising in our content from time to time in different forms:
We are very selective about what brands we work with on paid/sponsored content creation and as a rule we don't work with any brand that we don't already or wouldn't spend our own money on. We are incredibly proud of all our brand partnership content and it will always be disclaimed in the most transparent way possible so you know exactly what is with 'AD' on screen and in the description box. If the entire video is an 'AD' this will be in the title of the video.
Because we don't work with a large amount of brands on sponsored content we do rely on our CZcams ad revenue. Any adverts you watch during the duration of our videos will earn us a small percentage of 'ad revenue' from CZcams and we really appreciate you watching the adverts in full (and not skipping them), but only if and when you can. We also know that time is precious so no pressure.
We also use 'Affiliate Links' in the description boxes below our videos and if you make a purchase via these links we will earn a small percentage of commission depending on the sale amount. Not all links are affiliate links but just assume they are.
Any items/links marked with '[AD - Pr products]' are products which have been 'gifted' from the respective brands without a contract for sponsored content. This is still classed as a form of advertising because nothing is ever "free", brands are gaining exposure to our audience by us featuring them, so these items are marked as 'AD-Pr product' in the description box but we are under no obligation to feature these items. And as with our paid content, we never accept gifting/pr products from brands that we don't already or wouldn't spend our money on. If we have received a press discount on anything featured this will also be disclaimed.

Can we take a minute to applaud the maturity, the honesty and the straight to the point of Emma. Loved it! Missed it!
She's really the only fashion channel worth watching, she's genuine and honest. Not trying to sell anything, tells it like it is. Tremendous, effortless fashion style.
Would LOVE to see more in-depth, thorough brand reviews like this... Sezane? Everlane? Reformation? COS? Really, really enjoyed this video Emma xx
These are all brands I've had my eye on so I would love to know about them for sure
The timing! I actually have a DISSH review planned very soon so loved seeing your take. One thing a lot of people outside of Australia might not know is that DISSH used to be one of those fast fashion retailers - looked SO different to the aesthetic is has now. Around 2019/2020 they did a complete overhaul of the brand image which has totally worked in their favour as they are doing so well. I have to say, Iâm shocked when you mentioned the prices (in USD) - the Norah Pants are 99 AUD (so basically 50 GBP). Living in Australia I find most of the prices pretty standard and in line with what Iâd expect at that price point quality wise; but even then their stuff can be hit or miss - no two pieces are created equal. Also, avoid their knitwear that isnât 100% natural fibres. Iâve ordered a couple to see in the past and they are not it đ đ«Ł
Yeh Iâve often done the the currency conversion from Australian dollars and itâs gutting to see how much it costs in comparison to what we have to pay. We all need an Australian mate who can order for us đ€ŁđđŒ
It looks like they just do a straight currency swap to USD - so theyâre getting an extra 50% revenue which I suppose possibly more than makes up for the free shipping with DHL đ§ (before duties and taxes - ouch!!). You have some great retailers in the UK so like you said, youâre a bit spoilt for alternatives (and actually for the price, thereâs quite a few other brands which I think are great - Faithfull and Posse being two!)
â @@mademoisellejaimeI used to love Faithful but they do a lot of colour and prints and thatâs not so much my thing any more, however I definitely rate their quality on my purchases from them. A few years ago I did order some items from Posse but the fit was not for me, really oversized even in the smallest sizes and Iâm not even the smallest of people đ I love their aesthetic but have been put off from the purchases I have made and wasted money on đ
@@EmmaHill - FYI - I tried to sign up for your newsletter on your website and it says "That's odd. This page appears to be missing." There is something wrong with your "Emma in your inbox" link.
@@AP12360oh no sorry I just donât do a newsletter any more because other than loading outfits on the blog I donât use it like I used to. But as Iâm not a web designer I donât know how to remove that from the site and I donât really want to pay to have it removed by a web designer đ
I really really appreciate the honest and thorough review. The items all looked good on you but for the price and seemingly inconsistent quality, Iâm just not convinced by DISSH. Between M&S, Uniqlo and other more readily available stores (for those of us in the UK), I think I can find all those items for similar quality and a cheaper price
I couldnât agree more. If I lived in Australia Iâd probably be ordering more with the ability of easier, cheaper returns but itâs so pricey and so many brands available readily in the UK are doing the Dissh style this season đđŒ
Spot on review Emma. I ordered from Dissh once, never again. I found the whole process costly, from start to end. And to make matters worse, the quality wasn't good for the price. Every item I purchased was too big and not flattering. At the end, I had to return,, as it would've cost more to sell them myself than to swallow the paid customs charges. There are far better quality & designs in the UK & European market. So save your cash.
Really appreciate this review because it's so easy to be taken in by the hype and the get buyers remorse when it turns up and it's actually something you could buy in the UK without customs, currency conversion charges etc.
This is exactly what I want to see in reviews; info about sizing, quality and value for money. Thank you.
PS - the blog post is great - so again thank you.
Thank you Emma for such a thorough and comprehensive review. I have always been tempted by DISSH but think I will give it a swerve and read your blog post.
Dissh has some great styles and yes it is very hit and miss on the quality. I'm a Brit living here in Australia and really missed my usual shops from the UK upon arrival, but now things have got better here in-stores and shipping. I thought that we were getting royally ripped here but after watching you video and calculating the cost here for those items and converting to UK sterling you after all cost are paying more than double for those items đźwhich really shocked me.
I love watching you Chanel and was recently influenced to go into Uniqlo and get one of the padded vest tops. I never shop in there but love the black vest top I got and great value for $40 and a great fit too. We are totally the opposite in our seasons so thought they might not stock it, I did want the stripes but unfortunately they didn't have. Thanks again for you videos they really give a great honest explanation and fit on the items you feature đ„°
I have a lot of DISSH items (dresses, skirts, shorts and shirts), and love them and have been wearing them for last 3-4 Summers. I live in Australia, so much easier for me to return. As you mentioned, their sales are phenomenal, but adding on customs fees and conversion rate, is a killer! Thanks for the always-authentic and honest content â€
Hi Emma, this was a very helpful video, thank you for all the hard work you put into it with the alternative similar retailer info too x
I don't usually leave a comment - but I am loving the honest, authentic review about DISSH. Thanks for being different from all the youtubers out there. I was thinking of ordering from DISSH but now I've decided to read your blog post and do a bit more research! Thanks Emma :) đ
Itâs my pleasure and thank you for watching x
Thank you Emma for this comprehensive and honest review. This is one of the reasons why I have been following you for many years and will continue to do so. The items look nice and there are some flattering pieces. My favourite is the skort that has a perfect cut. I have learned the expensive way about ordering from abroad (I live in Europe) and paying duties and the challenge of returns.
I find the exact same in reverse when buying from the UK/ US and Europe. Sometimes once you add the extra charges its best to order from home. Being in Australia means Ive been able to get some great Dissh bargains but not some of the European styles Id love.
What a great video, I found it so useful as I love the clothes on Dissh but was dubious about ordering, and itâs safe to say I wonât be after watching this, and thank you for finding cheaper alternatives you have done the hard work for us, much appreciated Emma đđ„°
Loved this video! Iâm in the US and have been thinking about ordering from Dissh, so your video came along at the perfect time. Thank you for saving me money!!!
I was always curious about DISSH and your review was fantastic - honest and to the point. Btw, the linen cowl short dress looked amazing on you!
i think that i saw this brand on instagram and kinda knew with the prices that there was more of a dream being sold than a quality bit but i figured that it would not hurt to watch your video! and i love that I did and i love your honesty when putting these videos together!
This is great Emma! Thanks so much for this very honest review as it's so helpful, especially for those of us who don't have a lot of 'spends'!
I love a linen piece however greatly appreciate real commentary on products. Iâve struggled to get linen that work for me. You described elements for me to consider. Itâs clear these product have some good points however you have to really review options. Thank you! â€ïžđšđŠâ€ïž
This is the most informative and transparent review I have ever seen. I loved the Dissh dresses but when I came across local UK brands that do very similar dresses I stopped buying from them. And also one thing I didn't like about the brand is when you buy something from their sale section you can't return the items which is not great. Last time when I ordered from their sale section, the fit wasn't right and I couldn't return it so I ended up having something I don't want.
This is such a helpful video - thank you! Definitely checking out your blog post.
Wow, Emma! Thank you so much for this honest rewiew.
I think about bying at Dissh for two years now and your rewiew was so helpfull.
I love your blog post - this is realy Dissh-Style. Thank you so much!!!
Hi Emma, you look so cool in your white linen shirt! Iâm inspired to get mine on today. Itâs finally spring in the midlands!
I just wanted to say, thank you so much for this very fair and honest review. I canât thank you enough for the money youâve saved me over the last 4 years of following you! †x
As always a voice we can trust and believe and so helpful. Loved it all x
Wow! I love your straight forward honest reviews.
You read my mind, Emma!! I've been so curious to try DISSH - in fact I tried a dress a while ago that didn't fit, but I am soooo into it lately (especially their suits, vests, coord pieces). Ok now I am going to watch the video! xx
The waistcoats and trousers are great, but, there are soooo many brands available in the UK that have done linen suiting this season. Iâve put loads of it in the blog post I mentioned in this video emmajhill.com/the-dissh-look-without-the-price-tag/
@@EmmaHill I will take a look! Thank you so much
Thank you so much for the honest and detailed review! It's so easy to be taken in by the social media hype and videos like this help us to become "better" consumers. This is exactly the kind of content that I love!
After seeing you in the skort and thinking, âWow. I wish I had gorgeous long legs like Emma,â I had a little chuckle when you spoke about seeing the clothes on a normal body, not a model body. I have ordered from Dissh (Iâm in the U.S.) and not had to pay customs. I have the Roberts skirts (lined linen skirts) and 1 Rowan skirt in beige . The Rowan is not lined and is see through so I was disappointed with the quality. Iâm 5â 6â and all these skirts cover my ankles so will need to hem them for a more polished look. I have not ordered again because of the hassle of making returns. Thank you for reinforcing my resolve to look elsewhere for similar items. I appreciate that you posted a blog of where to look for similar items. Love your informative videos.
Really appreciate this honest and informative review and as ever I admire how gorgeous you look in everything which helps enormously with outfit inspo while shopping my own wardrobe
I do have one Dissh item, a buttery pale yellow linen long dress, which I ONLY brought because it was in their sale last year and I weighed it up and couldn't find any alternatives in that colour linen in UK and got it for around ÂŁ80 in total. I do love it, but otherwise if not in sale and I can find in M&S who do great linen (and cashmere!) at a good price and good quality I will stick to that! Thanks for honest review Ps. Been following your channel for years and it's still my fave :) xx
Maybe you could upload a video about tanning - brands you use, process, etc! That would be very interesting to see ahead of the summer đ
Thereâs not really much you can to say Iâm afraid. Iâve used the same tanning brand for years, Isle of Paradise. I use their tanning water in medium on a mitt x
Dear Emma, you look absolutely radiant on all of your recent videos đ †thank you for your honest reviews as always đ
As a kwaussie (kiwi in Australia) with a dissh down the road in the mall i appreciate the depth and honesty of your review Emma. I used to be a bit obsessed with dissh and while i still like and wear some of the things i bought, others I've moved on. I find dissh just the same as any high street fashion brand: varying quality and fairly unpredictable sizing and as the brand grows in popularity the quality starts heading straight into the toilet đ
This is valuable feedback from someone who has it very readily available to them, thank you đđŒâ€ïž
Agree with you! Chermside? The store is stunning but the sizing is so strange and the way they grab out the cheap item folded in a plastic sealed bag, straight from the supplier in china from out the back.. itâs just not really it!! Itâs a shame though!!
Emma I adore youâ€! I was always afraid to order anything from abroad because I didnât understand how to pay that customer charges and how they are calculated. You explained everything so clearly. Your videos are always very informative and clear. Thank you very much for your work! â€â€â€
Such a good video! Love the review. The âCelineâ Items feel very mature & businessy. I prefer the linen clothes đ
Thank you very much for your honesty! It helps a lot.
I love Dissh and funny enough I placed an order three days ago for a few graduations that are coming up. I love their shorts and tops.
Thank you- this was so informative! đ
Thanks Emma for doing all the hard work for us, very thorough and informative video, I enjoyed it very much â€
Great review. I live in Australia and I can honestly say you can find similar items here that are cheaper than Dissh and of similar quality. I was shocked by the prices you mentioned you paid. Like youâve mentioned. Their marketing is reeling people in to buying. Massimo Dutti has some great linen pieces. I wish we had their stores here. Thanks Emma for a great video.
Great video on Dissh . I have a few pieces which Iâm happy with⊠that being said they are quite pricy.
Amazing video Emma. Ordering overseas can be expensive. I am from Canada and the only brand I ordered overseas is Holland Cooper because of the quality. It is expensive but so unique. Thank you for your honesty on DISSH.
It was great to get your opinions on this brand, Emma! I ordered a handful of items from them about 2 years ago. Like you, I love the aesthetic, but I was mostly disappointed. I am about a size larger than you with what I'd call a medium size bust and the Banks vest was a disaster on me. My chest was too large, pulling the fabric out and showing the sides of my bra (armholes too big). What you alluded to, with lack of darts and structure, was a big problem for me. I get very frustrated when the cut of the armholes shows too much underarm or bra. The matching trousers were lovely but super high waisted on me (at 5'7"). I ended up keeping only 2 items, both dresses. One is the strapless white dress you own which I mostly like; the other was a double-breasted sleeveless mini dress, which has the same problem of armhole too large, almost showing sideboob đ Also I find the linen a bit scratchy in hot weather. I did return things (from the US) and while it took some time, I got the refund, and it was still quicker than I expected... about 3 weeks. HA! I realized that ordering from them was more hassle than it was worth and unsubscribed from the emails to try to forget đ đ»ââLove the new waistcoat/trouser ensemble â€
Emma, great hair colour and styling!! Love that natural hair styling on you. Dissh- great estetics, and that's about it for me, not going to purchase, I have better alternatives in my local stores.
The pieces look really beautiful on you.
This was a really great video Emma thank you. Been wanting to place an order from them but really unsure about the sizing and all the fees. Love your style
Glad it was helpful â€ïž
Im Australian but live in the US. I have a lot of Dissh garments, and i adore the brand. Ive bought mostly from the sale section, or picked nwt on ebay. For the 149 pricepoint imo, purchasing the ada or reign dress is an example of more substance than say the minidress, that will go into the sale section. My most recent purchase was the ophelia crocheted maxi dress that comes with a viscose slip dress liner that can be worn separately. I paid 78 usd in the sale. I cant wait to wear it and the other items I have in my wardrobe this summer! The only thing I would say about Dissh is that if youvare under 5'5" then maxi dress length is a bit of an issue.. Thanks for the review Emma, I love your content xx
For you in the US youâll be paying in your own currency so you wonât get the conversion charge and the pound is currently very weak so unfortunately here in the UK weâre not getting as good of a price as you guys đ I totally agree with you on buying from the sale, my older dresses and skirts were bought in the sale and Iâm happy with the quality of most of those but I still find it hit and miss. I just wish there was some consistency.
EXCELLENT INFORMATIVE VLOG EMMA â€â€â€
I enjoyed this. I donât think Iâd buy from Dissh given the cost and the drawbacks. I like to shop on vinted and secondhand so that would be my first choice.
Thanks Emma, Great video!
I love all your videos, Emma! I always have great experiences with the Big Three shippers FedEx, UPS and DHL. I really love the (UK?) brand Poetry for linen and other natural-fiber items, too. From San Francisco.â€
I think itâs applaudable to try and deliver a thorough review. In fairness to the brand I think all watching need to consider itâs a review through a British/EU lens. Iâm an Australian and do purchase a lot from DISSH and in our market they are on par if not cheaper than many of what Britâs would call our âhigh streetâ brands. The points Emma makes on eco friendly/carbon footprint are absolutely fair - AUS is an island nation and because of the tyranny of distance everything costs more here. A counterpoint is that AUS is a developed nation and if thereâs a brand producing its clothes here you can be sure itâs not being g done in a sweat shop (ie human slavery). Hope that is a helpful addition to the review points in the video. All said - itâs a great video for starting conversations about considered and ethical purchasing
Always makes me happy with your dressing tips. Hugs xxxxxxxxxxxx
I loved everything!â€
Thanks for the video. I had actually ordered from dissh from the uk for the first time just before I saw your video. Three points worth noting is 1. Customs charges only apply if the goods are ÂŁ135 or more; and 2. If you order from the uk on the US website it defaults to US sizing. 3. They charge a flat fee of 20 usd for returns. I ordered a 10 thinking it was Australian but it was US Size which is actually uk 14 so too big. I expected customs charges but there werenât any as my order was ÂŁ100.
Great honest review.
Thanks for your honest and thoughtful review. I donât get Dishh. Not worth the money and extra charges at all. I watched your Uniqlo and M&S vids and loved the clothes, so much better and cheaper than Dissh. Keep up the great work. Would love a review of Demellier bags x
Funny - I happened to be in Australia, and staying at Bondi (where their flagship store is) when reading this. I loved the aesthetic walking past and also liked the story behind it (the brand was started by the mother and handed down to the daughter who completely revamped it), but it was your review that encouraged me to go back and buy a few pieces locally while I could! Wouldn't have ordered from the States but it's quite reasonable here. Thanks for the great and timely review, which helped me pick wisely.
I bet the store is beautiful? What did you buy if you donât mind me asking? đ
Great video Emma! I have quite a few linen dresses from Dissh that I was lucky to purchase without having to pay any customs charges and I got them on sale. Otherwise, I think that their pieces are quite expensive. If you bag a bargain on sale especially in linen, I think that they have some nice options đ€
Yes their sales are great, a lot of my older Dissh dresses and the skirts were bought in the sale and they often do an âextra 20% off saleâ which then takes another chunk off but by this time some sizes have already gone đ
Great review Emma! I never order clothes from a country so far away. I think the cost is just not worth it to me. I'm not even British, but I have access to M&S and so many of their pieces have a DISSH-esque style to them. The UK high street is not a bad place to look at.
Interesting. I liked the new shaped waistcoat and trousers.
Me ha encantado el vĂdeo. Yo siempre compro en Europa con âŹ. Gracias
Excellent presentation, Emma!I tried purchasing certain items at Arket, and they don't ship to the U.S. đ€
Thank-you, I have been thinking I am being over critical of Dissh. It's nice to know I wasn't being harsh.
The trousers are lovely and long for someone like you and me at 5â9â. X
Is there any black linen maxi dress you would recommend (spaghetti strips) ? Looking for my summer staple for workđ great video and I saved some money as well thanks!!
This video was very good. I like the honesty and think that more people should be as honest but fair. I never buy from DISSH because of all the charges. I would like to see an honest review on Lily Silk and Goelia because they are from China and again Returns are not really an option.
Well Done. X
I only ever tried ordering from Lilysilk once and my order never arrived đ Iâve never ordered from Goelia but I can certainly look into those and do videos in the future x
I agree with you about returns being problematic if you don't live in Australia. If you live in the United States I don't recommend purchasing from them. I ordered and returned and I don't quite understand their math but I ended up loosing over 30% of my money after the refund was done, and this does not include customs as I was not charged for customs because my order was small. If I had been charged customs on top of everything else I would have gotten even less back. I am not saying anything bad about them, this is just how it worked out for me. I'm glad you made this video, it is very timely.
If you are in the uk Tesco's f&f range has 100% linen waistcoat shorts trousers blazers available ay the moment the trousers vests and shorts all under ÂŁ20 blazer i belive was ÂŁ39 i could be wrong was under ÂŁ40 anyway and if you doing a weekly shop anyway worth picking up they have plain linen and pinstripe they do button down shirts too and they're not see through and a really nice cut â€
Two main things stop me from ordering from some brands, neither of which is to do with their aesthetic or quality! One is that they don't send ddp (duty paid), as while I expect to pay customs, I object to the high administration cost (ÂŁ10 -15) when I'm ordering ddu (duty unpaid), the other is the returns process when costly and no chance of getting customs charges back.
I live in Denmark, and being petite I order petite items from the UK, as they're way easier to source than in the EU (you'd think Germany and France would have a reasonable selection, but I've not yet discovered where). A lot of companies send ddp, and surprisingly, it doesn't seem to size of company related - some small companies send ddp, some larger ones don't. I always, always check their returns policy, so I know what I'm getting myself into. Some you pay for delivery but not returns, for others it's the opposite. A lot of UK based companies use GlobalE for their deliveries and returns (I've had zero issues), but the t&c's vary from company to company. With ddp, the customs charges are part of the price, which may be slightly higher than the UK price, but usually, clothing is cheaper in the UK than the equivalent in Denmark.
Thank you for that review 𫶠I bought several pieces within the last years and am a big fan of the trousers too. I have the white pair which is double lined but then the black is just a single lining. I am now thinking of buying the beige ones too - are they single or double lined please? Have a lovely evening âš
The beige (natural) are double lined đđŒ
Fascinating video Emma. The items look lovely but I agree that finding similar and better quality is very possible here in the UK. And my word, they are pricey!!! The older dresses with the pleated strapless bodies look so beautiful especially on you. Luckily I am a sewer so can pretty much copy most things đ, the biggest challenge is finding good quality fabrics to sew with. And I am also an inveterate #secondhandbutgrand demon! Takes patience and a bit of skill and detective work to find specific items but so worth it and nothing beats the rush of finding something that was once hideously expensive for a bargain (hunt off season đ). Have a wonderful bank holiday weekend hon , all the love as always, Pippa xxx
H&M has actually very good linen this year, I was extremely surprised.
Thank you so much Emma for saving me a ton of money. The customs charges make it not worth it anymore. Appreciate you!
I luckily found a dish maxi skirt at a charity shop for $12.99 (RRP is $120) - definitely worth sifting through to see what you can find!
What a find đđŒ
Great honest review!! â€đšđŠ
When I lived in New Zealand and Australia in 2000's , I never heard this brand. My favorite Australian brand is 'cue' but you only know when you live in Australia or New Zealand. I love their quality of the clothes for the office wear. I got 'cue' clothes and they last more than 20 years. but they are under rated. If you dont live in Australia. Ugg is the brand that is popular around the world.
Really enjoyed this video. Love the aesthetic of DISSH although the quality is hit and miss.
RE customs for UK customers: if its ÂŁ135 or under you don't pay customs. I've found it can work out cheaper to wait for their 20% off or sale and then split your orders up to be below the threshold.
Also, if you return, you can claim to be reimbursed for your customs charge for the item you're returning (a bit of a faff but possible).
Good to know! Thank you. When I researched it only came across info that said you canât get customs back. If youâve got a link or source of info as to where you found the process that would be really helpful â€ïž
I love the style of dissh but find the quality very hit or miss. I ordered the norah pants and they shrunk massively after one wash (cold wash, air dry)- they went from dragging on the floor to sitting above my ankles, totally unwearable. Luckily they let me return them, but still disappointing. I've also found the sizing to be inconsistent (e.g. one size 8 will fit well while another will be too small or too big). Some items, especially the tank tops and other jersey/knit items are very thin and not worth the money at all. All in all, a good source of style inspiration, but not somewhere I'd shop regularly. Thanks for your great review Emma, always appreciate your honesty :)
Had really negative experience with them: they advised me wrong on the size, I had to return, it was a pain. I lost over 80⏠on my order. So never buying from them again.đą Thank a lot for the video!
Urgh what a nightmare, but thank you for sharing â€ïž
Emma, everything looked amazing on you, and your choices are top notch, but the prices are completely over the top.đź
The full priced items for those of us buying in US dollars outside the US are really a lot and thatâs before any additional charges. That said they do have some good sales and most of my older pieces were bought in the sale and were definitely more reasonably priced for the overall quality. The risk you run is that certain sizes and styles sell fast in the sale so thereâs not always much choice by the time you get to these âreasonable pricesâ đ
I live in Australia so often go to Dissh. Youâre spot on with the quality issue. Even in store the linen pieces are so inconsistent. The same size and item can fit very different from item to item. I think the issue is that they do make things very cheap but get it over the line with their aesthetic and the fact that itâs right on trend. Itâs frustrating because they could be so good if they upped the quality!!
So valid! I would definitely be happy to pay their prices, including the customs charges, if the quality were better.
great video!â€
Hi Emma! Great video!! Iâve been looking at Dissh for ages and still never ordered!
Hope you donât mind me asking but I thought âthe queen of linenâ might know đâŠ. Do you know where I could get a 100% linen sarong? My daughter is a linen queen too and we just canât find her one anywhere đ© sheâd ideally like the natural beige linen colourâŠ. Can you help? Xx
Gosh I canât say Iâve been on the lookout for sarongs so I havenât noticed any but Iâll keep my eyes peeled x
thank you so much
Hi Emma, thank you for the video.
Can you recommend any other linen skorts? I love the idea but really struggle to find the perfect ones :)
I have created a blog post where I filled it with Dissh style items and there are some linen skirts in that post which you can see here emmajhill.com/the-dissh-look-without-the-price-tag/
@@EmmaHill thanks, I will check it out :)
I like your critical Videos. Thank you đ€đȘ
Wrap London and sister company Poetry have amazing linen pieces in very good quality â€

Great review, love your transparency with your thoughts.
You mentioned your "disappointment" in the quality of the garments and I'm wondering how much wear your garments are actually getting before they start to show wear?
I know you take great care of your garments and, I'm totally assuming, you're probably not wearing these items on heavy rotation.
Sorry, I meant to say "heavy rotation YEAR ROUND"
Thatâs exactly the point, I have a lot of clothing, although some items I definitely reach for more but the majority is on rotation. So after only a couple of wears and a button pings off whilst wearing the dress, after a first wear and a strap broke. Then thereâs just the visible quality, things you can see without having to even wear an item, unfinished hems, bad stitching, loose threads etc
Hope that helps x
Yes, thank you!
Great video Emma! I live in Australia and everyone here is crazy for Dissh. Tbh I own heaps of pieces from them which I love, but the fit/sizing in some of the items is horrendous and inconsistent. If I order two pants in the same size one would fit and other one would not get past my tights. How can a brand that 'calibre' have such inconsistency? They also opened a store in Sydney and every time I go, the items look so much cheaper than any of the photos online, I always try stuff on and leave empty handed. But I cannot believe the hefty prices you mentioned from overseas shipping... definitely not worth it.
As I said their marketing is soooo good. Theyâve done such a great job of creating that cool, laid back but beautiful aesthetic. Everything from their models and locations to their photography and even font choice. Itâs so appealing to a lot of people, but yes sadly âinconsistentâ is definitely the theme of the brand. Inconsistent sizing and quality from my experience and many others. If I were in Australia, whether it be living there or just visiting Iâd definitely order more as it is priced differently in Australian dollars and costs much less than for us Europeans to buy it and the returns process is easier/quicker. I love the items I have, even the ones which developed faults, because they are so classic and wearable every Summer but itâs just a risk when living over here to order from them when we incur extra charges and have to pay for returns. We run the risk of losing out on money and itâs not just a few quid đ
I have 3 items 2 dresses and 1 top all second hand and very happy they were I was very un impressed with them but being second hand at least I saved some money and makes a bit đworth it. But I find that I can get the look from COS and Arket for better quality price and of course easy to return etc
Have you reviewed Me+Em? Their clothes look gorgeous and high quality. But between being in the US and the high prices, Iâve never purchased anything. Would love your take on their clothes!
I havenât but I do have a few Me+Em pieces. They are very high quality and do come with a higher price tag, which is fair in my opinion for what you get. That said not everything always appeals to me, I find some seasons are better than others but I suppose that happens with most brands from time to time. I definitely add them to the list though x
You know that I normally don't buy at fastfashion shops, but & this is a BIG BUT: FOR BASICS (white tees, black tees, etc... I do buy at h&m
1= they are size inclusive (up to size 50)
2= their linnen, cotton, etc... are really good bc they wash really well and they last years
3y back I bought a linnen button up shirt & it's đđđ»
& their jeans ranges are very good!
Again for that size inclusiveness I just said.
2 pairs :
1= a pair of straight leg mid waist ( đŻcotton) like a Levi's jeans this
2= 97 +3 % elasticity in the jeans
When you have a bigger bum than you want to backpockets to be bit bigger so your bum looks bit smaller (optical illusion đ)
But 20y ago even 10y ago I didn't bought h&m jeans bc the backpockets were small and my bum looked HUGE )
And last week I bought for the first time in almost 10y 3 pieces from Zara)
Going to do an unboxing, first impression & a review on my channel (next Monday or so)
Have a lovely Sunday Emma & Simon and everyone else

I actually ordered from them whilst I was in Australia on an extended trip and after a week passed since placing my order and them not shipping it, I contacted them to ask when it would be dispatched and they then told me that the item was actually now out of stock and that I could choose something else to be sent instead? I asked for a refund but at the time I did think it was odd that I'd had to contact them asking why it hadn't been shipped and also that I was being offered something else rather than just refunding me?! That being said this may be a one-off customer service experience and not something that happens regularly but it's still put me off ever ordering from them again, especially from the UK.
Emma, Iâm wondering if Poetry fashion is similar in aesthetic to Dissh? Have you ever ordered from them? I constantly look at their linen pieces, many of them I love, but higher price point, and Iâm not sure about the quality, so havenât actually ordered âŠ.yet!
Iâve never heard of them but will have a look x
These prices are crazy. In Australia I pay $25-$50 for basic linen dresses. AU sizing is different to UK. Eg. AU 12 is a UK 10
I made a linen purchase with them- the suiting items at the top of the video and sent the entire order back. Iâve got an inverted triangle body shape and am quite booby and that waistcoat in 2 different sizes just did not work and the pants just swallowed me⊠Returning was a bit strange if I remember correctly. Donât think I will purchase with them.
Are you in the UK? How much did you lose in terms of money from your order for the return? I must admit the fit of the waistcoat is, well non existent, thereâs no fit at all, itâs not really tailored. This is ok for me as I have no shape to my body so I can get away with more but yeh if youâre busty Iâd definitely avoid.
Iâm no Eco Warrior either, but apart from the wasted money, it hardly seems sustainable to order all the way from Australia for middle-of-the-road basics we can buy in M &S, Zara or Arket. Thereâs a fuel crisis, two wars an incipient recession, and we have everything in UK we could possibly want. Thrifting them or just going to the high street for almost identical styles, without the questionably hip Dissh label, seem the best options. There is no Planet B!
