from 604 reviewsBig fan of the versatility of the Louisa Vest. Been a big fan of Nettles Tale for a few years now and the quality never disappoints!
Absolutely perfect! Love the quality, love the fit, love the compliments I get! No more squandering money on cheap tees, I’ll take one of these in every colour!
I ordered mine the day Nettle’s dropped their fall collection. Such a great cut, and the dusty mauve colour is so nice for any season. I’ve received many compliments and look forward to styling it a number of ways. It was my first time ordering from Nettle’s without trying on first, and their size guides were helpful and accurate.
Love them. This is the first time I haven’t had to size up for swimsuit bottoms (regardless of size charts…). Was such a pleasant surprise when I followed the size chart and got my usual size and they fit perfectly and were very comfy and cute.
Love it! Was worried if it was too big in the chest — I need a L but don’t have a big bust. But it’s perfect.
So glad I finally purchased one! It’s nice quality and a great fit. I am debating getting it tailored for an even better fit. I got it in black, and the only complaint is that it seems to attract a lot of lint in the wash. Not a major issue, just a laundry annoyance. Can’t wait to style for fall! 54” hip 42” waist and got a 1X. Still roomy!
I love this skirt! It's beautiful and comfortable and versatile. I wish I had one in every colour.
Had I known how good it would make me feel, I would have bought it sooner!
I have gotten so many compliments on this skirt and it's so comfortable I want to live in it! The fabric is soft but sturdy, the vibrant colour is gorgeous, the pockets are big enough for my phone, the wide elastic at the waist is comfortable. Perfection!
Perfect armholes, perfect neckline, perfect length! Love the fabric, so soft yet also durable, very high quality! Please make more colours
I haven't had a new swimsuit [that fits!] in a very long time, so was excited to see that you had a swim skirt in my size, and jumped at the chance to try out Nettle's Tale after first hearing about your launch from a friend longer ago than I'd like to admit.
Unlike other companies, the product description was accurate!

Size matches measurements, check.
High waist that wasn't too loose or too tight, check.
Comfortable brief, check.
Well-constructed... Wow. I really did not expect such sturdy fabric, let alone how well it was put together!
I happily went swimming---swimming! not just paddling my feet---for the first time in about 25 years. Thank you! You've helped this aging Water Baby regain confidence in one of her true joys.
So many compliments!
I love everything about this top… the fit, style, pattern. It is just the best. I ordered the cow print in size medium and my bust is 36-37. I may have been able to size down for a more compressive fit but I love how comfortable it is. Pairs perfectly with the high rise magic bottoms😊.
I got 2 pairs and they are perfect. The sizing is accurate and they are very comfortable and flattering. Recommend!
Love it!
