I hope that all boxes going forward are just as good as the first. I really wanted all pieces but couldn't afford it. They were really nearly 100 percent perfect. I changed to 2-3 week deliveries because I need clothes and love the service. Thank you so much for catering to us shorties.

I have enjoyed this subscription so much. It’s hard to find clothes that I don’t have to get hemmed. So I’m actually saving money. They send the cutest stuff. I highly recommend them.

My stylist sends items that are exactly in line with my described tastes and petite size. For petite women, I recommend Short Story without reservation! They are fun to work with and have great customer service!

I love working with a company and associates that try to find the exact clothing that I request and that fits! I tried Stitch Fix for awhile but nothing ever fit. Now, I really look forward to a Short Story box because I always find something in it that is unique and flattering. I live in a rural area of NC that has very few quality shopping establishments, but even if I do find something in this area to buy that fits me, I never find anything that is different than what other people in this are buy. With Short Story, i receive many pieces of clothing that are unique and flattering. My absolute favorite piece that I have received is a fake leather motorcycle jacket in burgundy suede.... I get compliments on it every time I wear it. And... I'm the only one if this area with a jacket like this.

I am extremely satisfied with my ShortStory service. I submitted my monthly items back and long story short they where lost. I was terrified thinking I was going to pay for the items I did not keep. Janice helped me and put me at ease. She took care of the package dilemma and now I can enjoy my birthday and next package coming soon. You have a loyal customer with me! Thank you Short Story. Also, thank you to Marianne for emailing me as well and helping me!

Clothing from this company is definitely on brand. The petites fit very well (unlike other subscription boxes) and the quality is good. They are also very responsive by email. I mainly use them for professional clothing, and they do okay with that. Nice and unique tops and blazers, but not a ton of suits yet.
