7 Brands at Nordstrom That Somehow Always Have 5-Star Reviews
Our readers have made it clear that they love shopping at Nordstrom, so I'm always trying to think of new ways to curate the retailer's selection from a fashion editor's point of view. Today, I'm writing about brands that somehow always have five-star reviews on Nordstrom's website.
So what brands made the list? There's a healthy mix of high (Gucci) and low (Ugg), with everything in between. For starters, there's a brand that has cornered the market when it comes to activewear, a label that's known for its cozy robes and cardigans, and a company that can't ever seem to produce enough T-shirts. Scroll down to shop the seven brands that Nordstrom customers love and see what I'd buy from each.
Zella
Gucci

Barefoot Dreams
Ugg
Madewell
Birkenstock

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
