*TRY ON* at BRANDY MELVILLE... is this a joke??
Bestie… is it cute or are you just skinny?? 😭
We’re trying on Brandy Melville IRL — tall vs petite, same pieces, VERY different experiences — and unpacking the chokehold this brand still has on girls everywhere. Is it actually cute… or just psychological warfare??
This video was heavily inspired by @CarrieDayton Inside the Fitting Room series (our queen, our blueprint), and we’re bringing you the same unfiltered, no-gatekeeping, besties-on-FaceTime energy — just with a little more trauma 🫶
⚠️ Also: we are both relatively slim and recognize that Brandy Melville’s sizing excludes MANY body types. Our experience is NOT representative of midsize/plus size shoppers — and that’s kind of the point. We talk about it.
✨ What we get into:
Trying on Brandy Melville basics (baby tees, tanks, skirts, jeans, sweatpants)
Tall vs petite differences (5’8 vs 5’2) that actually matter
The “one size fits most” experiment… and why it literally failed both of us
👗 This video is for you if:
You love fashion TikTok, Brandy Melville, or fitting room try-on chaos
You’ve ever wondered “would this actually look good on ME?”
You live for honest reviews before spending your money
👯 Why you need to stay till the end:
Because the results… make NO sense.
Things that should’ve worked didn’t. Things that shouldn’t have worked… kinda did??
We rate everything (quality, price, experience) and ask the real question:
what is the actual chokehold Brandy has on us??
Also… the jeans alone might send you into a spiral. Just saying.
💬 Be honest with us:
Are we delusional… or is Brandy Melville lowkey a social experiment??
And where should we go next?? Aritzia? Edikted? Urban Outfitters? We’ll try it on so you don’t have to 👀
✨ LET’S BE BESTIES ✨
