Free People

I went into the Free People on Southport and saw a pair of shorts I loved but need a different size. The girl working was super helpful and looked up locations that had what I was looking for in my size. Staff at Water Tower didn’t see the item in the racks. The system shows it at the Bucktown store, but they have different hours and weren’t open yet. The sales associate wrote down the item and gave me the number of this store to call when they open to see if they have the shorts and hold them until end of day.
I have called about 6 times in the last 2 hours and no one answers the phone! It rings until it just cuts out. There isn’t even voicemail set up to leave a message. Being a Thursday morning, there is no way this store is so swamped that whomever is working can’t pick up the phone! This is a terrible way to run a business. Good job losing business on tiny piece of overpriced fabric!

Smells like ASS in there!

The clothing here is absolutely beautiful. I walk in and want just about everything! Jewelry included. I’m just not sure it’s for me though. The clothing is very loose fitting, and on the pricer side. It’s definitely worth a visit.

Hey guys, I’m looking to start a support group for people who are completely addicted to Free People like I am. When I’m not creeping around their store I am probably checking their website or drooling over their catalog.
I love this store, I love this brand. I’m such a loser that I actually can identify many items by name from memory.
The women who work here are all helpful and friendly. I just wish Free People weren’t so damn expensive.
The nice thing about this store is while they may not have a lot of items from the collection there, they can order it and have it shipped to you for free.

Honestly,
Everything in this store I can find in my moms closet from the 60’s, only the stuff in her closet would be nicer.
Second, staff is rude.
Last, how the «F» are you charging 188.00 for a crochet sweater with a massive coffee stain down the front. Who does that?

I LOVE the clothing at Free People, I just wish it wasn’t so expensive!
Although I do have to say it is worth the money, my first free people purchase was in the late ’90’s & I still wear it!
The staff at this location is always friendly & ready to help!
I don’t always have the cash to purchase what I find, but I always find something I want! I even think about items I didn’t buy years later, wishing I had taken them home with me (I still wish I had the sweater dress I saw back in 2007!)
I always stop in when I’m waiting for a table at Bongo Room!
One of my favorite clothing companies!

I like places that give out memorable and unique shopping bags when you make a purchase. So for their adorable, reusable crossbody shopping bags alone, I give this Free People boutique four stars!
At full price, Free People clothing is pretty expensive — you’ll likely pay around $ 90 for a top and $ 180 for a dress. But their sale section is pretty good — I saw some cute items for around 50 percent off, and that’s just enough to make my bargain senses tingle.
I bought an adorable leather and rope waist belt here for around $ 25 — not my best deal ever, but I’ll take it!
Overall: a great place to linger in if you’re looking for a reasonable splurge item or two, plus some great sale steals.

I’ve always been a fan of Free People. Back in college, I usually stopped at this tiny boutique that carried Free People products every other week to see if they have new items — and often they don’t (also I went to middle of no where college).
Now I don’t have to look very far. I love this store — it’s not clustered, well organized and very pretty. My kind of shopping experience. I love their jewelries and sweaters. They have the warmest, softest and most comfortable sweaters ever. The plus? They don’t make you look like your grandma — maybe a hip grandma if any.
There has been times where i come across an item and think to myself — it is a bit too out there. My advise? Buy it anyway, because it somehow will turn to a super stylish item that you’ll get tons of compliments on.

Okay, so this is an expensive boutique. And unless you are a fashion free spirit, then you probably won’t like the place.
However if you’re like me, then you can’t get enough of this place!!!
The clothes are so well-​made and incredibly stylish, I couldn’t get enough of it.

Dream Boutique! Love everything they have but a little expensive… but it sure does inspire me though!

Oh, how I love Free People. I’m so jealous we don’t have a store in St. Louis. I made a special trip to Wicker Park to go here and I wasn’t disappointed. They have a great selection and I left quite a bit poorer. The sales girls weren’t overly helpful, but they also weren’t overly intrusive so it was fine. Minus one star for the high prices. :)

I feel so floaty, free and whimsical whenever I come in here. and for some reason, the song «Age of Aquarius» plays in my head. Very hippie chic! I always stop in after eating at Bongo Room just to look because the clothes are so darned purty! I’ve never bought anything in here before because it’s really not my style, but this time I did. They had these really beautiful lace and sequined tube tops that I could wear as layering pieces, so I snapped up the black and fuschia numbers. Can’t wait to wear them!
Free People is kind of pricey but because their line is so unique, they can get away with it. I’ll keep popping in to see their latest.

I’ve been a fan of Free People for a long time. First discovering their clothes at Urban Outfitters in high school, I dug the label’s hippie vibe. Before this store was even on Milwaukee Avenue, I knew of the company’s plans to put it there. When it opened, I was quick to explore.
What I found then, and what I found yesterday, was that I was somewhat disappointed in their product and selection. The merchandise is spread out across the space, perhaps to make it look like there are more racks – but it still feels sparse. The selection of clothes doesn’t seem to encompass their entire line and the line’s decent variation in price point. Most of the stuff in the store seems to be «the best of” – there was this orange paper thin t-​shirt for $ 98. I’ve found better selection of Free People’s clothes at Nordstrom than I’ve found every single time I’ve set foot in the store.
I still enjoy the products that Free People makes – but I don’t think this store represents all they have to offer. See you at Nordstrom!

I think it’s really a hit or miss here but I guess that also depends on your taste and personal preference obviously. They have some cute pieces here for casual wear. Half of the stuff I thought was just okay looking. Their style is like a cross between beachy casual with a touch of urban to it? … is the best way to describe it. I found myself a cute v neck striped cardigan and a light spring jacket I can also probably wear in the fall. I’m not usually drawn to their clothing that often but it’s worth a look every now and then cuz there will be some gems among some uglier looking pieces. I think prices are reasonable for what you get, unless you are accustomed to piece of shit craftsmanship, clothing that’s not even worth the low price, etc. Screw that. I hate cheap shit.

I am not a general fan of Free People as I think you can get much better quality for the price elsewhere.
Because there are surrounding vintage and consignment stores around, check these out and compare pieces. You will be pleasantly surprised. I know many people like the vintage/​hippie look so why not try the real thing?
The store, however, was VERY cute and the sales people were nice! If you like Free People as a brand you will like the store.

I love Free People for their attention to DETAIL, textures and use of color. I love just checking out their boutique when I’m in the area for what’s new and of course, their sale section, since the the brand is a quite pricey for a college kid on a budget. Usually, I’ll go to Macy’s and raid their Free People sale section, where you can find super deals. =D
But the store itself is very dainty and detailed, and has cute little accessories you’d otherwise only find online. OH, and the fitting rooms are so cool– it’s like you’re Alice in Wonderland or something. Plus the staff is very friendly and welcoming. (My boyfriend and I walked in there one day with our dog after stopping at the dog park near by!) The only downer is that the place is quite small and has maybe only about ¹⁄₃ of the selection you’d find online.

I always buy Free People clothes in department stores (love this hippy look) so drove right over to Milwaukee when I heard they had opened a boutique!
The selection of clothing is amazing– it was hard not to buy the entire store. Kelly was the saleswoman who helped me out… I walked into the dressing room and was pleasantly surprised to see that she had even brought in tanks and tees to layer under the dresses I was trying on (without me even asking for them!). Now that’s good customer service! They were pretty crowded, but my friend and I still got lots of attention, which was nice.
I left with an adorable sweater and very cool pair of wide pants that I know I’ll get a ton of use of!
Now I just need to start saving my $ so I can go back to Free People to shop some more!

I’ve always been a fan of Free People…
This one’s the only one in the mid-​west.
Definitely a destination point…
It’s right in the middle of loads of consignment and used clothing stores so I suggest making pit stops at some of them while you’re there just to see if there’s anything worth buying.

I never pay much attention to Free People when shopping in the department stores, but I want everything in this new boutique that just opened 2 months ago! Unfortunately, I can’t afford everything, but I did walk away with a very cute pair of pants and the most amazing comfortable sweater… I’m actually hoping for cold weather tomorrow just so I can wear it!
Personally I find Free People reasonably priced, but it’s the midst of many other thrift stores so after shopping at those it does seem a bit expensive.
Make sure you try something on while shopping here– the dressing rooms are too cool!

I love Free People clothing when I’ve found it at other stories. It’s funky but not too weird. This store is rather small though so they don’t have a huge selection of styles. In fact, down the street at Belmont Army they seemed to have a wider variety of Free People tops and dresses.
Since the store is new there was no sale rack which is understandable but still disappointing. They had a lot of fall tops but it’s too hot to think about buying them yet.
The women working there were very friendly and helpful but I feel like they need a few more racks of merchandise in there in order to make me visit regularly. Just not much variety considering the large amount of clothes the company has on the Web site.
