This pant which is 63% cotton, 33% rayon and 4% spandex stretches out while I am wearing it and becomes very baggy. Looks awful Why would you make a pant that stretches out like that?
The quality of fabric used for this pant must be poor. Rip off!
After reading other reviews of JJill, I am done buying from this company.

Absolutely the Worst
December 2, 2022

This store, their customer service and their shipping is the absolute worst you could ever encounter! There is nothing I can say positive about them! I have ordered three different times from them in the last month and I have NOT received one single package! Customer Service refuses to do anything to locate my items and since they are close to bankruptcy, they have switched to a shipper that you cannot even track or get ahold of. Stay away from this nasty store. Again, name of the store is JJILL

For 30 years I made jjill purchases and was my go to place for clothing. Then they changed the wearer fabric. Then the styling took a train to Kansas. But their prices remain really high. Sad that their line is so terribly diminished. Hate that that they are no longer a place I can depend on for clothing.

Quality
June 26, 2020

I have shopped at JJill for years and always loved their clothers. They were always high quality. In the last year or more that quality has slowly gone downhill. My last order had a linen tunic - but only the front was linen. The back and sleeves were some thin material. Although I love the styles I am afraid that JJill will not be my go to any longer for clothing.

After encountering the problems noted above with Comenity Bank, the bank handling the J. Jill credit card, I contacted J. Jill customer service to make them aware of the issue. They graciously volunteered to intervene with the bank and helped me to resolve the situation by having the late charges dismissed. As a result, although I will never again do business with Comenity Bank, I will continue to patronize J. Jill.

Beware of J. Jill credit card
September 1, 2017
Previous review

This store's credit card is handled by Comenity Bank which is a bank guilty of fraudulent and unethical business practices. Stay far away unless you want to have delayed posting of your payments to generate additional late fees and interest for the bank.

I went to J. Jill at green oak to return a pair of pants that were damaged and the manager got very frustrated with me. She was blaming me for the pants being damaged and said that I had done that to the pants. She made it seem like she was doing me a favor by exchanging the pants and that it was a major inconvenience. She got visibly upset with me when asking me if I had a receipt as well. For a store that markets itself as a boutique, they should not be treating people like that and I will not be going back

Ugly clothes
February 7, 2019

I have shopped at JJill for many, many years. What happened? The clothes are so ugly, not to mention the quality has really gone downhill. They used to have such cute clothes and now they are FRUMPY. I guess they are ok if you work in an office. Sorry JJill, I am forced to shop elsewhere.

This is the second time I have went to your store and left humiiliated from one of your sales clerks at Dana Ranch in Arizona. You can still be a petite and wear a large or extra large size. They are sold in your store. Comments such as I don't think they come in that size in petites or are you sure you want to be in Petites. I will not be going o your store anymore.

Are used to buy leggings from J Jill and they would last several years. They were cotton spandex and heavy duty and lasted a really long time. The last time I bought leggings they were so thin you can see through them and they were out in about eight months. So I won't buy these again. I'm so disappointed

I LOVE JJILL! I also love their sales. So I wait, and wait.

Occasionally the clothes I want are gone in my size when the price drops. But I say cest la vie, Cherie!, to myself.

Ive never had a problem with customer service. In 5 years. Not once.

Highly recommend.
The one negative. Well the 2:
1) they need better designers, with better color palettes.
2) they have nothing for loyal customers. At least Free Shipping, JJill!

I like JJ clothes. I don't order online because I like to try on clothes before I purchase them. At JJill the sales people tend to be aggressive about the JJill card and th sign up at the register. Even after I say no thank you, they keep jabbering on. Today when the person at the register did this, I actually said she was being rude by not listening to my first no thank you. She said she just wanted to inform customers of the "many benefits" and I snapped at her. My being a $#*! is not part of a pleasant retail experience. I avoid the store in two of the malls nearby (Cherry Creek and The Meadows) because of weird aggressive sales people. Now I will avoid the store at Aspen Grove. Im probably going to avoid JJill altogether.

Humiliated
June 13, 2019

I bought $300 worth of clothing online from J. Jill. This is my first experience shopping with them. I liked all but two of the items and decided to return them to the store nearest me in Hillsboro, OR. It is hard to put into words the offensive and humiliating experience of returning items to this store. The sales associate loudly announced my name, address, phone number and email to the whole store. She had to see my driver's license, call corporate and so and and so on. I was divorced recently and had a legal last name change, which she forced me to explain in front of people, even though all the paperwork was in the legal name, including driver's license. Then the sales associate charged me instead of credited me and I had to wait there, humiliated, feeling like I had done something wrong, while she had to get another person to fix her error. All in all, it is a safe bet I will not be shopping there again.

Missed the mark again
August 31, 2019
Updated review

Oh dear! Just got the newest catalog, some things are okay, they've added orange and rose colors and a few aqua ( very few) however the bulk of colors are carried over from the summer... black, white and red. I know why... they start their colors and designs almost a season ahead so with all our displeasure at the designs and colors and ALL of our honest reviews... it was too late, what can I say? The tops are shorter which I get and not enough tunics ( some of us like them). Soooo all we can do is hope for another pallete but it was decided a long time ago. I have soo many gift cards and haven't used them! Geez

I'm sooooo disappointed in the "new" collection! Again... the colors are terrible! I don't get it! Need new Designers. Who's wearing red, white and black in the summer heat. Really. I was anticipating some pretty colors but this collection is early Fall. I'm a very longtime customer, I don't want to leave but I'm forced to look elsewhere. JJill is NOT listening to its customers as I've read the reviews not just on this site. I sent an email to C Serv but asked for no response as it's just placating. I have so many gift cards and cannot find anything I like. Can you imagine? They need to rescue this downward spiral quick as they will lose many of their core buyers. I'm actually sad about this as JJill was my go to store!

I have just about trying to get a BILL from J. Jill credit card company. They are the WORST. I will have to stop shopping at this store ONLY because of their credit card company.
Unbelievable. I cannot even get a bill from them.

Terrible Customer Service
February 21, 2022

Last spring, I ordered some tops and I kept all of them but one, it was way too big. So, I filled out the return form and I asked for an exchange for another top and I put the item number on the form for the exchange and I mailed it back to J Jill. Well, they never sent the exchange that I had requested and when I contacted them, they said that they had no record of ever receiving the package. She said to wait a couple more weeks and see if it would come into their warehouse. I waited a couple of weeks then contacted them again and they told me they still hadn't received it. I am disgusted with their terrible customer service.

Excellent service
February 28, 2017

Somedays ago, I bought a sofa set from 1stopbedrooms and it is totally good one and i feel good by using this. This is nice design and good quality. I think this is best e-commerce shop. I purchased some furniture from 1stopbedrooms and I was satisfied. Customer service was good and they deliver very quickly without any problems. Stuff are so helpful.The furniture designs and colors are awesome.

I have two wonderful cotton tunics from JJill... one I actually wore out in a gorgeous turquoise. I ordered a black turtleneck tunic and was looking forward to it. I guess I was not reading carefully, since the stretchy fabric it was made of was not to my liking, nor to my size. I'm a petite medium an the petite large was like a sausage casing. The package arrived in horrible shape... resealed poorly. And it contained an unordered black and white shirt that I would never wear in years. When I went online to write a review, per their request, my account wouldn't allow me to get in... and I keep a list of passwords. It was their problem, not mine. So tomorrow, I'll go to one of their stores where their drag colors will assault my senses and make sure the return paperwork is correct. Then wait 'two billing cycles' for my refund. I will NEVER shop here again. NEVEAR.

Cheapened Quality
December 19, 2020

Loved this clothing line when first introduced but I have found that the quality of the clothing has really decreased while the price is still the same. If if they lowered the price I would not buy them. The styles are great but I don't want tops that get holes in them in the front at about the waist line after wearing a few times. When I compliained about this I was rudely told that I have moths. I replied and those moth must really be smart as they only eat holes in my Jill clothes and all in the same spot in the front about waist line. I am not fat either where my top could be rubbing against the countertop and causing this either. So I stopped purchasing their clothing. Period!

From bad to worse
March 25, 2020
Updated review

The March 2020 collection was apparently the debut of JJ's new designer. I was appalled! The predominating "chablis" color is unwearable, the prints are ugly, and most of the dresses are wide, shapeless muu-muus AND too short -- how unflattering can you get? They don't even look good on the models! Plus the models are shown with messy, stringy, dirty-looking hair. And the April catalog is no better. Sad, sad, sad. I haven't bought a thing in months.

Alarmed at the decline lately
September 11, 2019
Previous review

I'm a long-time J. Jill fan who actually used to work there. I agree 100% with what Liz M. Said below. Not only is JJ's quality tanking while prices continue to rise, but I don't even like the designs and colors. I mean... cutout shoulders? Brown for summertime? Making everything sparkly and cheap-looking? Are they trying to imitate Chico's? Of the last 5 collections, the only one I liked was July's. I hope this changes before the company totally self-destructs.

Do not use their charge card service! They use Comenity Bank to service their charge accounts and they will fee you to death. Terribly hard to work with. I finally had to personally go to the store and let their manager deal with them and close my account. Beware!
