Body Central Review Summary

If you like to shop on the internet for clothing and don’t mind taking a few chances, then you might like Body Central for your buying needs. This online clothing store offers decent prices and trendy clothing options for the fashion conscious. Body Central is “Fashionable and Affordable” in the words of some reviewers, but Body Central has its share of critics, including one reviewer who pointed out that the site was “Not the Quality I Expected”. Not only is the quality questionable, but Body Central also has problems with its limited selection and the fact that it caters to very thin people. Sum everything together and you have an average Shopping Web Site that may or may not suit every shopper’s clothing needs.

These clothes are extremely fashionable and affordable! These clothes always "fit like a glove" on everyone I know that has purchased from their online website or magazine. Overall, I highly recommend these clothes - These are high quality without the price!

Quick View

Body Central (www.bodyc.com) is a very limited website for very thin women. Their sizing is inaccurate and their choices are very, very limited. They have cute items but getting the right fit is almost impossible.

I love to buy trendy clothing via the internet. I loved the clothes on...

Body Central has a great selection of clothing.  I get the magazine and order on line.  The clothes are always in great condition and I never get sick of wearing them.

After reading the reviews online of how the sizes run extremely small, I was hesitant to purchase, but since the clothes were fairly inexpensive I decided to go ahead and order anyway. I am 5"2, 110lbs and decided to get a size medium in the tops. Once they arrived I probably could've been safe with the small, but medium fit okay too. I am usually a 4 in pants and got the 7, which fit fine. They are skinny jeans though so maybe those just typically run small. The quality seems better than I was expecting given the price, and the order came EXTREMELY quickly! I placed it on a Wednesday and it arrived... review »

Very poor quality of the clothes. The clothes in a bad condition, they did not hold up good in washing. I purchased an item and it was look like a rag. 

The worst part is the return process: you double pay when send them the return. 

You wait to speak with the customer service representative over the phone half an hour and more and they provide you with zero information about your return status!

You e-mail them - the same here: not any clear information about your return and when you can expect to be credited on your account.

SEEMS THEY NEVER WANT TO GIVE YOUR CREDIT BACK AT ALL!

PLEASE,...

I placed an order with body central because of how cute their clothes were and the low prices. When I got my shirts I was so excited because they fit and looked cute, although the quality was the cheapest I have ever seen.  The one shirt that I liked the best had a HUGE hole in the front.  I wrote the company and they did send me a paid fed ex label to send it back, I'm still waiting for the replacement and its been over a month.  Sadly I would not shop with this company again.

I ordered a few things from this site and sent most of them back.  The quality of not good...but the prices are pretty low...so yes, you do get what you pay for.

The clothes I sent back I exchanged for other things...which I hung up for a few weeks, then promptly gave them away to goodwill.  I didnt want to waste another cent to return more clothes. 

I wont be making any future purchases from this company.  It is more for young people that dont care if their clothes last or are of lower quality.

I am new to Body Central - I received their catalog and breezed through it quickly the first time. Later the same day I sat down and really looked at the clothing and found several items which caught my eye. I decided to go online to view them further and decided to go ahead and take a chance and purchase them. I just received them today - tried everything on and wha -lah EVERYTHING fit and was fantastic!!  They are true to their size chart and I cannot wait to wear each item.  My biggest problem is decided which one to wear first!  I recently discovered that they are the Body Shop - I LOVE ...

Finally a store that has clothes that fits thin women.  I first found this place when I was in Florida on vacation, while doing some shopping.  The clothes fits me, not like most places where the size S is a size M or L.

The strapless dress I purchased fit fine in the bust. The bottom of the dress was anywhere from 21" long in front and 25" long in the back. It looks like a rag. I'm so disappointed I'll never shop this site again.
