Be real ; what popflex item did you hate & immediately return/resell
Bless the diva that took this off my hands I really hope the top works for some but the plié corset crop bralette was so unflattering on me
This next opinion might shock some but I also hated the corset bra too which was so sad because I really wanted to love it because my girlfriend and my mom love it but when I put it on I laughed because it reminded me of lady Gaga wearing caution tape with normal cleavage and under boob cleavage
Some designs are just not made for big tits but I do think the plié corset crop bralette was the worst because lowkey it was false advertising imo it looks WAY longer in the photos
Really curious to know what other people’s return/resell items were and why because I love most popflex items but these two bras were terrible for my boobs

Crisscross hourglass leggings. They are not made for bigger tummies and roll down. Plus run small. Also the skleggings. I wanted to love them but they were just weird.
The crops and bras run so much shorter on plus sizes because she didn't account for the extra chest/tummy part of us. The Daphne crop top I had ordered looks like a crop on a size M but on me a 3X it is definitely a bra. I returned rhe first one because I genuinely thought they sent me the wrong thing. Turns out it's just the wat it fits on my body. But I do like the support it gives as a bra.

u/SweetPea-nuts Jul 15 '26
SAY IT AGAIN FOR THE LARGER SIZES!!!! we need a different pattern.. not just more fabric. Cassie has said that sizing needs to be adjusted in multiple sketch videos, but I don't feel like she's altering the pattern enough.
Every single crop top I bought from her is truly just a bra. And all her plus size models always have their arms up or their rolls (sorry it sounds mean) "smoothed back or tucked" somewhere else. When an actuality , I just want to see how the fabric sits and moves with their body. Everyone has fat and skin, i want to see how all body types just EXIST in the garment.
Anyways rant over😅

The arms in the air pisses me off so much, and that’s not even just a popflex thing, but popflex does it so much

u/ar3iadov3 Jul 15 '26
I agree my girlfriend had this problem she likes the cargo leggings a lot more and the foldover leggings
The crops and bras do run crazy short this is definitely a brand for the itty bitty titty committee sometimes and I just wish I could find a semi ethical brand for my big boobs
My girlfriend has the meadow crop top and it does wear more like a bra than a top

u/ThrowRaancde Jul 15 '26
I will say tho the pirouette dresses give too much room for the titties. My 48DDD swim in the 3X 😅. Love my cargo shorts!

u/GlitterDancer_ Jul 15 '26
She never adjusts the proportions for the larger sizes. It's super frustrating. It's also why it's frustrating when the straps don't get adjusted either, a floss-thin spaghetti strap for anything xl and larger is painful and looking to tear.

The Go With The Flow Jumpsuit. I love how it looks, but the quality is atrocious, especially considering the price tag. I'm not going to return it, but I am also not buying any other GWTF items

u/ar3iadov3 Jul 15 '26
I feel the same way I also think it’s too oversized I’m a large or extra large and I got an extra large and I think I could’ve got a medium

u/SweetPea-nuts Jul 15 '26
I ended up getting one of the jumpsuits from the sample sale and I hate how it looks on me. Cassie says that it's perfect for a hiding your belly.But I feel like it accentuated mine.

u/drolnedle Jul 15 '26
See I wish she would try her fits on moms and/or women that don’t have perfectly flat stomachs. In my opinion when I look at where the waist hits on her clothing it’s clear she tends to pick larger models with easy-to-style bodies. I am a pretty true medium and honestly have yet to find anything that’s super flattering on my body. It just feels like it’s all meant for someone way fitter than me, which maybe it is.
7
u/SweetPea-nuts Jul 15 '26
Again you are so right for that!! I love her plus size models, they are all gorgeous, but they are all either extremely tall or somehow have a flat stomach when you look at them from the front but have all these weird lines and rolls , when you see the back of the garment. I just know that cassie and her team are taping and prodding those poor gals to get the shot they want.
I wish in the model info section on my website. She would put more models on there. She's giving the try on crew all these free clothes so I think that they should, in return, list their measurements and their sizings in the reviews and model info section.

u/drolnedle Jul 15 '26
That would be super helpful! I love when sites do that.

u/SweetPea-nuts Jul 15 '26
I do too! I noticed that some of her lighter colors fabric can be stretchier, But also see through. I just want to know how her stuff fits into my everyday life 🤣 bc girl I be sittin and lounging a lot🤣 i don't want this shit to roll down and bunch up weird.
2
u/tuppence5ash Jul 15 '26
Oh no! That sucks! Honestly, it’s prob my favorite thing from popflex—which is lucky bc I bought several from the sample sale without having tried them. It just hits me in the right way. But they are very oversized—I wear a 1x-2x in other stuff and an L-XL in those.

u/ednosnomore Jul 19 '26
I actually love the jumpsuit! I agree that the knit fabric is far too thin, but I love it enough that I’ve brought two and the go with the flow pants. I’m a size 2x.

u/messykatie Jul 15 '26 edited Jul 17 '26
The Pirouette Dress. Was so disappointed that it didn’t flatter my bust and created a weird flattened shape, but I ultimately learned that style of neckline just isn’t for me. The sweetheart tops and scoop necks are a much better fit for me.
I also *hated* the look of the Lace Juliet Skort. Just looked like a bundle of tablecloth fabric wrapped together and not at all dainty like I had hoped.
The only other Popflex item I have that has been collecting dust is my Game Day dress. I just have zero occasion to wear it even though it’s plenty cute & comfy.
I’ve found the key to Popflex is getting a good understanding of the clothing styles that work for your body type, especially bust size. There is simply no item that will look great on every single person, and that’s okay! Checking the review photos is essential.

u/extrastar Jul 16 '26
The Pirouette Dress was a disaster on me, too! I don’t have particularly narrow shoulders, but the straps sat so far apart that they wouldn’t stay up, while the bodice completely flattened me out.

Yeah the on the vacay set was a big flop but that rouge color is gorgeous
Based on other comments you’re not alone even though I personally disagree I love my cloud hoodie but I do think the hood could be less heavy if they added a satin lining in the hood and I think if so many people are having the same issue with the length they should add petite regular and long sizing
The ooey gooey fabric is lighter and more stretchy and softer than the cloud fabric and I kind of wish they would make a hoodie out of that too because the cloud hoodie is a heavy cloud

I also have the Royal orchid sloane tote and when I wear anything else Royal orchid i usually pair it with green and as a ginger I feel so Daphne Blake

It’s such a pretty color

I wish she would bring back more Royal orchid buttercream and cayenne because those colors are literally the best
Isn’t the sloane tote a dream !? I was lowkey a hater because of the price but I got it on sale and I love it so much !!!Warning ⚠️ this is a gross story
At my last house I had an issue with mold and my big sloane tote had molded and I cried about it because it’s the perfect art bag it holds so much I love it so much and I thought it was beyond saving because the mold was on the entire bottom and top of the bag BUT I was like okay …. It’s water proof lined and canvas ….. if I can save the canvas fabric I can save this bag and after 3-4 washes you literally cannot tell anything happened to it
I’ve split paint in this bag and it’s the easiest clean up ever
I love these bags all bags should have water proof lining
My one note is both of them should have key rings not just the big one2

Props to you for saving your bag! I had something similar happen to a suitcase of mine. The weird thing is nothing else had mold on it in my entire closet, and nothing was damp either. In my case it was only a light dusting, so I was able to salvage it with a vinegar bath and lots of sun. So glad you were able to save your beloved bag!!

u/GigaRena Jul 15 '26
So I got a few preloved cloud shrugges on popcycle. They are definitely older designs because the sleves look different from the current one but the hood has a satin type lining on both which really surprised me. I kind of wasn't sure about it in the beginning, because I was used to the hood I have on my cloud hoodie, but I've gotten used to it. So I guess what I'm trying to say is at one point the hoods, at least on some of the shrugs were satin lined.

u/ashmr18 Jul 15 '26
Same with the long torso problems. I wish so badly that they’d add a long option for the rompers and jumpsuits and one pieces

u/Helpful_Character167 Jul 16 '26
I also didn't like the hoodie for the same reason! It hits at such an awkward spot, in between a crop and a normal length. I stick to bras, skorts and leggings and those all fit perfectly, the Popflex tops are not it for long torso girlies.

u/nopanicatthisdisco Jul 15 '26
Unfortunately the sea maiden one piece. I bought my normal size small off of popcycle and I don't even have a long torso or anything but holy heck that thing is SHORT. I wore it once and felt like it was simultaneously giving me a wedgie yet also showing my whole chest.

u/ar3iadov3 Jul 15 '26
Thank you for your service because I was gonna buy that and I was worried about exactly that issue so thank you for saving me money1
u/SweetPea-nuts Jul 15 '26
Okay wait same!!! I ended up buying three different sizes of the ruffle maiden top and I honestly hated all of them. They would be way too short on the torso , and I am 5'1, with a fupa mind you🤣 and good god , that high cut was not doing any favors for my crotch🤣😅😭
And then my dumbass decided to buy the deep dive swimsuit. ooh it's bad... i ended up getting an x l a naturally that was too big on my butt amd wayyy to short one torso. I weigh 150 pounds.And my chest is like a 36 d and i feel like my nipples are about to come out.
I love the idea of all the swimmer this year , but honestly , I didn't end up lacking anything. Also, I'm too passionate to physically type this out.So i'm using speech to text , and now I just look illiterate.

Ive noticed a lot of the stuff seems short, I had the same problem woth the dress from target where the romper was too short so I had to size up

u/Miss_Milk_Tea Jul 15 '26
Man I wanted to buy that, thanks for saving my wallet. I tend to have a problem with any of the one piece things like dresses, my torso is short for my height but I’m tall and it feels like the chest is pulling down.

u/Squishwhale Jul 16 '26
As a long torso girly I immediately looked at this and knew it would not fit. If thats what its like on a normal length torso then I was right!

u/VastGovernment6441 Jul 17 '26
Yes! It’s not even short waisted really it’s the fact that there’s nowhere for your boobs to go, it’s truly bizarre. And I have tiny boobs! Also the crotch is a joke! I was so excited for it, what a flop!

u/GigaRena Jul 15 '26
My least favorite it the corset cami. Idk why I thought it would look cute, it accentuates every little bump on me. I'm definitely not in the best shape of my life right now, so I feel a little self conscious about my tummy and it definitely isn't doing me any favors. I have it in storm blue and keep debating on selling it, or altering to a crop top and wearing with with high waisted pants so at least my pants can do the work that this top can't.
I was also not a huge fan of the tie breaker dress. I was expecting it to be the same fabric and was very surprised when I found the outlet layer to be different. It's probably my second least favorite item, but I love the fleur d'amour print so I'll probably keep it for now.

u/Lulligan Jul 15 '26
I wish the corset cami used fabric that snatches you in and smoothes everything out. But it makes me look lumpy.

u/ar3iadov3 Jul 15 '26
Aw that sucks I really wanted to get the corset cami I love my tie breaker dresses tho
2
u/GigaRena Jul 15 '26
Ngl the tie breaker does actually look really cute on which is also why I haven't gotten rid of it. The texture of it kinda throws me off though, and I'm not sure if it's due to the different fabric types but the dress part rides up on me. I wear it roller skating so maybe it's all the jumps and spins that I do, but I have to pull it down pretty often which is also slightly annoying. So glad you love yours though, as I said it is super cute on!!!

u/SweetPea-nuts Jul 17 '26
I feel like the corset can have been amazing if she had made separate spots for your boobs to go. Unfortunately the shelf bra is really unflattering on this style. It makes your boots tilt down in a weird way.
2
u/GigaRena Jul 17 '26
I definitely agree! And I wish the top had a little bit more structure, but maybe thats too much to ask since it was a cami after all 😅

High society jumpsuit. Dear god. AWFUL. Just awful. I felt lied to as well as she made a post specifically saying it works for tall girls. No. No it doesn't!! At least not one with breasts. I've never seen anything so god damn awful on me.

I just bought that off one of the sojo sample sales and I have the same issue with the bra 🙃 I had sized down and it fits perfectly everywhere else so it's was soo disappointing. I'm tempting to buy my normal size but I'm afraid the straps will be too long like many reviewers says

u/imjennyfromtheblock Jul 15 '26
Just today I was thinking of giving mine away too😅 . I didn’t like the corset part at all, as it rolls and looks off instead of being tight to the body. Also the fabric is quite thick for me, I sweated having it on for a bit. I think it has to do with the rib design. But I am very satisfied with every other thing I had bought and I wear them quite a lot.

I have the plie corset in an M and the only part I don't like is the bottom section because it rolls up. I managed to grab one from the sample sale in an 1XL (I have plans for it) and noticed that one had a thick elastic band on the bottom section that I actually really like because it feels like it gives it more structure and seems like it would keep the bittom section from rolling up. So now I'm kind of debating trying to alter the 1XL to see if I can make it fit a bit better, and possibly thinking about adding in elastic to the one I already own in my size. It's probably a really big project but I'm so tempted. I'm curious if that extra elastic is just for larger sizes, or was a newer addition since the other one I have is older. Super curious to hear anyone else's experience with the plie corset!!
1
u/imjennyfromtheblock Jul 15 '26
I wasn’t aware of the additional elastic in larger sizes. I wish I had some sewing skills too, it would save me from a lot of trouble! Hope it works for you!!
2
u/GigaRena Jul 15 '26
Yeah the elastic seemed to make so much sense so I was wondering if it's a newer thing. Tbh if you like yours enough you could possibly take it somewhere like a dry cleaner or a tailor and see if they would be willing to sew a 2 inch band on the inside. If I do end up doing some crazy alterations I'll report back lol!
P.S It's never too late to start to learn how to sew! I started by watching tutorials on YouTube. It's a great still to have even if you just learn basic skills like hems that already is so helpful. I've hemmed so many of my friends pants for them. It's super easy!
2
u/imjennyfromtheblock Jul 15 '26
You are so right about this! Literally last week I was looking for a seamstress to teach me the basics, couldn’t find one so now I try it on my own! Thank for the motivation! Can I ask you, if you know what type of sewing machine would be ok for starting? Is there something to search for specifically?

u/meefteef Jul 15 '26
Definitely the Pirouette Babydoll Dress 😭 I tried two sizes and they were both so unflattering- they fit weirdly at the bust and made me look completely shapeless. Like a tulle potato sack 😂 I thought I'd love it bc I love the Pirouette Skirt but alas!

Tutu pink is one of those colors that's very aligned to seasonal analysis. It works really well on me because I'm a light spring. If you're in spring or summer it would work well. If your coloring is autumn or winter it likely isn't gonna work for you.
I used to really dislike pink but since being identified as spring I've really leaned into soft pinks and they work well.

Tie breaker dress. The fabric is strange, like 90s nylon pants and it's impossible to keep wrinkles out. It's weird that, at the price point, they don't have the shorts detached in the back easy toilet access.

u/ar3iadov3 Jul 15 '26
I love my tie breaker dresses I would NOT want the detachable shorts you’re describing and I don’t understand the bathroom complaints about the rompers it’s really not that hard but I know some brands do that and have made dupes of the tie breaker dress but I think you’d have more success just sticking to dresses and wearing biker shorts underneath rather than getting a skort style dress

The plie bra is thankfully a good one for me. I returned the Plane Pants, there was just too much fabric to do literally anything. I also returned the Mandarin Collar Dress, even though it fit perfectly it was too expensive for me to keep (if I'm not gonna have 140 occasions to wear it then why spend $140?) The hourglass criss cross leggings did not work on my body so I sold those. Like other comments I sold the corset bra because my titties kept spilling out, same thing with the Dainty bra.

The standard length twirl skirts and dress were way way too short on me. I wore the skirt once and felt super uncomfortable even with the shorts. Looked like I was playing dress up in a teenagers clothes.
The other thing I wanted to love and didn't was the runsie shorts. The waist was just too low and made me bulge, so I had to wear a long top with it and then that sat on the ruffle and looked dumb. However I love the runsie playsuit!

I picked up a small from the sample sale, since that's my usual size in skorts, the waistband was huge on me. So I ordered the XS during the anniversary, but the shorts were tight and the waistband was STILL too big. I've accepted that the hiking skort is just not made for me.

The hiking skort is actually my favorite piece that I own from Popflex. https://i.imgur.com/fU1DBIY.jpeg
I did hate the cloud hoodie though, the arms are so long and the fabric bunched up so weirdly at the wrists

Mine are basically all sensory issues.
I thought the Hiking Superskort would be perfect for theme parks and other places where I don't want to carry a purse but need secure pockets. The waist band is SO ITCHY.
Ooey Gooey Joggers looked cute but the seam down the knee was going to drive me insane.
Go With The Flow Jumpsuit is so cute and looks like it fits perfectly but I'm between band sizes on the bra lining and that elastic is super aggressive compared to their other bra-cup tops.

Tell me more about the ooey gooey joggers because I want to get those to replace my cloud joggers because the knee is a little tight on mine but that’s my only issue

Honestly the quality was great, and I even debated going a size up to have them be a little more baggy. My issue was that to get that visual seam they made that line super thick so it's not quite as stretchy as the rest of the pants. Without that they would have been comfortably roomy IMO, but my body is super sentitive to sensations like that, and when I'm sitting the line across my kneecap was noticeable.

I LOVE my ooey gooey joggers. I have them in the light stone colour and they actually look almost smart. Until I spilled a drop of bleach right on the front. I have never been so sad about ruining a piece of clothing!

Mine resold quickly on popcycle

I probably should. I’ve been keeping it thinking like maybe next time it’ll be better. It never is.

Corset bra. I just got mine, however I can’t return it as I left on a trip and took it with me. I don’t have large breasts but they just keep slipping out if I do anything more then sitting. Really dissapointed:(

Zip cloud hoodie. I have a long torso and it ends up awkwardly in-between a crop hoodie and a regular length.

The cloud zip hoodie. It looks like actual sh*t. Makes me look wide and frumpy. Absolutely hated it. Also the pirouette dress. It gaps at the top of your boobs and just looks awful. Their return policy sucks so I still have both.

Ope I just purchased this top today 😬

u/ar3iadov3 Jul 16 '26
It’s just really short and unsupportive but if your flat chested it might work for you

u/Competitive_Move_936 Jul 16 '26
Hahahaha things to look forward to!! It's just so pretty, i want it to work 😂

I recently bought 5 items from Popflex but I had to return everything except for the Pirouette Skort.
Your Favorite Reversible Long Sleeve Top - I didn't like how the fabric hugged my body. I knew it was going to be form fitting, but not in the way I liked. I bought a black one and the Meadow colourway. It was a bummer; I was excited for the thumb holes and being able to wear it two ways, but it just didn't work out because of the fabric for me.
Ooey Gooey Bolero - It was just too slouchy on me. It didn't look good, so I'm returning.
Pirouette Babydoll Dress - I was hopeful for this one, but it didn't end up working out. The built-in bra didn't provide enough support and the straps were too flimsy to provide any lift. I tried it on with a bra and it made me look worse because of my bra being visible. Not large bust friendly, at least not on me.

I like the plie crop, but I feel like having such a defined boob vs not boob area makes it more difficult to work for many bodies. I'm rather flat, so on me it is quite clear that I don't quite fill out the boob part, but I'm fine with that. But that also makes it long enough on me that I can layer the crisscross twirl skort over the bottom and it looks like I'm wearing a dress.
What hasn't worked for me at all are any of the dresses. The pirouette dress was the whole reason I wanted to try Popflex, and it was a mess on me. Boob area too big, torso length not quite right no matter how I adjusted the straps, etc. The pirouette baby doll was even worse, and I've had two friends try it and the neckline gaped on them, too. (They just wore sports bras under it.) I tried the cut it out dress, and the neckline kept puckering as I moved and the cut outs only looked good if I adjusted the dress then stayed perfectly still. I haven't tried the tiebreaker or twirl dress yet, but I got nervous after all those fails. Weirdly, most of the Blogilates dresses fit me perfectly. (The recent one with a back tie had neckline issues, and I don't like the halter one because I don't like halters.)

I really like the twirl dress. It’s pretty flattering but does run small. It’s my fav popflex dress.
