Reiss

I honestly believe Reiss make the best clothes of all the highstreet retailers. I have always been cursed with a middle-​aged man’s face, even when I was a teenager I looked about twenty years older than I was. So my clothing choices are limited; I can’t wear funky printed t-​shirts, but Reiss have made my life so much easier.
The clothes are well made and last for years but they are also classically & beautifully designed. I love this branch in particular as it’s where I used to head when my student loan came in or during the Christmas sales. I don’t buy clothes often but I honestly believe the quality of Reiss’s clothes is worth paying for. They do have slightly different stock to the Cabot branch.
The staff here have always been amazingly helpful and their sales are legendary. Literally, if like me, you don’t care whether your clothes are last season’s or if you are buying winter clothes in the summer and vice versa, head here and expect to fill your wardrobe up for the year. You can get up to 75% of some of their stock, which almost makes it the cheapest around.

I balk at Reiss being called a high-​street store, if it is, its the high end of high street.
I checked out Reiss as I am seeking the perfect dress for a wedding. It had a nice black dress, beautiful quality, but if I am spending that much money, I need something not merely to be nice but exquisite. My main problem with Reiss is that though the clothes are well cut and of good quality, the designs are never very innovative. For that price, I want something that makes me stand out.
However, thumbs up to the service you get at this Bristol store, the Reiss Staff are friendly and greet you with a smile when you arrive in and then leave you to browse.

Shopping for me used to be about going to a shop with a specific item in mind, buying it and coming home — job done. Fast forward a couple of years and a handful of long term relationships and I’ve been reprogrammed to take shopping as an experience. It is after all called shopping, not buying.
If there was anywhere in Bristol that rams this idea home it is the internationally recognised Reiss. Named after David Reiss and originally a men’s tailor in London, the shop has grown to cover various countries across the UK whilst retaining an air of independence in each store.
In the Park Street branch of Bristol they are very focussed on the customer service side of things, delivering a more exclusive shopping experience. The shopper is accompanied by second to none styling and tailoring advice through a more luxury, high end store.
First it was buying, then shopping, now accompanied shopping.
Will the reprogramming stop before I make it to the pub?

If you are lucky enough to have an unlimted bank balance, or Dad’s credit card then Reiss is the place for you. Located on Park Street, it isn’t a suprise that most things are completely out of my price range (you’re looking at almost £50 for some leggings!!)
Having said that, their clothes are really amazing. You can tell that they are worth more by the detail and quaility of the material they use. It’s actually quite a large store (it goes back much further than you’d expect) so they do have a good range of clothes. I also like the fact that they keep the shop really clean and tidy, and there is always an item of every size.
I dropped a few stars because window shopping just isn’t the same as real shopping.

This is one of the best Reisses in the chain. Members of the staff are so friendly and helpful and they remember you, which is extraordinary. This is a good place to come for a special outfit. The sale is good as well. They have a tailoring service.
Don’t be put off by the grand look of the shop, because you will be looked after very nicely and genuinely.

Very stylish clothes store, Reiss stocks clean cut sessional fashion wear that no one can look scruffy in, for both women and men. If you’re needing a new look or maybe just some sharp new garments, just hand yourself over to one of the friendly staff and let them entertain you. Great clothes with prices to think about.
