Matilda Jane Clothing — The Way Clothes Should Make You Feel (Review and Giveaway)

On Thursday morning, at 6:30 am, I will be boarding a plane to fly to Fort Wayne, Indiana to attend Matilda Jane Clothing’s Annual Art Fair — and I am thrilled.

Just a month or so ago, I had never heard of Matilda Jane Clothing, but I am now a fan (and customer) for life.

Matilda Jane Clothing

Within three seconds of landing on Matilda Jane’s website, I fell in love. I immediately felt peaceful, inspired, and just plain happy staring at the ethereal photos of some of the most unique, beautiful clothes I had ever seen.

And two weeks later, when a box of Matilda Jane Clothing arrived at my door, my love deepened to a whole new level. Online, Matilda Jane Clothing looks fabulous. It is playful, colorful, and original.

But when you get to see the clothes in person and experience the incredible quality and detail, the rich fabrics, the perfect stitching, well it is indescribable.

I think most of us have become so used to sub-par quality when it comes to clothing, that when we see clothes constructed with the craftsmanship and care of Matilda Jane seamstresses, we are shocked.

Matilda Jane Clothing takes us back to a time when clothing wasn’t mass produced and fabrics weren’t chosen because they were the most inexpensive way to manufacture the most pieces.

Yet, it isn’t just the quality of Matilda Jane Clothing that makes their pieces simply stunning. It is their creative, unique designs. There is just nothing else that looks like Matilda Jane.

I was running out the door to go to a doctor’s appointment and after school carpool when my box of Matilda Jane Clothing arrived. I couldn’t resist opening the box and pulling out each gorgeous item. And even though I was just going out for an average “mom” day of driving around kids, etc, I quickly whipped off the jeans I was wearing and put on the gorgeous Josie Skirt. (I couldn’t resist taking this iPhone shot to FB while I was waiting in the doctor’s office!)

Matilda Jane Clothing - Josie Skirt

The skirt made my whole day feel more fun, more special. And I got constant compliments and “where did you get that skirt?” questions everywhere I went. Matilda Jane Clothing is just that outstanding.

  221. We are new to MJC since April 2012 !!! My favorite pieces for my 2 girls would be Coco Knot for my oldest and Yours Truly dress w/ Sweet Pea leggings for my youngest. I have beentrying to get matching sets, but they still look cute when they arent. So far knots are a favorite in the house, andwe do have a few ellies. Ruffles are also a big hit too. I wish we had found Matilda Jane back when my oldest was born in 2007. We sure are making up for lost time !!!

  222. We love Matilda Jane, our favorite dress right now is the Lucky Stars.

  223. linda patterson says:

    my favorite is the peaches and cream dress. My daughter is so cute in it!

  224. There are SO many amazing pieces, it’s hard to choose just one! I have been buying Matilda Jane since 2007. I have always loved the sunshine knot dress from Homegrown–so beautiful and so unique!

  225. Love MJ and am very sad that I can’t make it to Art Fair!!

  226. I have to say everything from the Hammond Bay Collection is my favorite!!

  227. That is a tough question, but the Stargazer Pearl has always been a sweet favorite!

  228. Katie Ogden says:

    SO hard to choose just one fav piece, I love, adore, cherish all MJC pieces! But I’ll say the Days of Summer dress is among the top of the list!

  229. Kelly Corpuz says:

    I have tons of favorites, but I’m very excited for my daughter to wear the Tomato Peasant to school this fall!

  230. Bridgette Lott says:

    Favorite MJC piece: Lavender Brown peasant

  231. My favorites change on the day. However, my current fave is the outfit I’m wearing today, the desi skirt and farrah tank!

  232. These are all very nice, will be hard to pick.

  233. Ohh, it’s tough to pick just one favorite! Since I don’t have children yet, I only have adult clothing. Honestly, I love everything I get from Matilda Jane; I’ve never returned anything, but of all my MJC pieces, I’d have to say my favorite is the Cheerio Wrap Dress from the Serendipity line. This was a surprise favorite; I knew I’d like it, but had no idea that I’d wear it as much as I do. If MJC made this dress in lots of colors, I’d buy every single one. The dress is perfect on its own, with leggings, or even with the brown ruffles. Every time I wear MJC, I receive compliments. MJC Rocks!

  234. My favorite MJC pieces are the lap dresses. I love the soft, everyday, wearable, comfy, cute, and sweetness about them. I am obsessed and so is my daughter.

  235. I love my Juniper dress but want to try the Xanadu next!

  236. Jamie Hicks says:

    see you at art fair! -Jams

  237. I am also going to Art Fair this weekend for the first time ever! Can’t wait!

  238. Amy Huggins says:

    I LOVE it ALL! This season my favorite piece is the Strawberry Bloom ruffles.

  239. Kari Sloan says:

    Oh my goodness I love Matilda Jane! How do I choose one??? I’ve had my eye on the confetti dress for my daughter but we love them all!!!

  240. We love Matilda Jane! And I felt the exact way you just described the first time I found their website 🙂

    Our favorite piece right now is the Apple Pie lap dress…. 🙂

  241. We love anything Matilda Jane! I love my Josie skirt. It’s so hard to pick a favorite but I love the Lucky Stars knot.

  242. Brittany King says:

    I am a seasoned MJ addict so it is so hard to pick a favorite piece. I would have to say the more recent Plat Maggie Mae peasant is my favorite. However, it’s a rare occasion that I don’t fall in love with everything I order.

  243. Valerie Chmelka says:

    I found Matilda Jane about a year ago and placed my first trunk show order this year. I love seeing my girls dressed in the adorable clothing. My daughter loves her DQ skirt and flutter dress.

  244. Ashley Harris says:

    We looooooove Matilda Jane. Pick us for this fabulous prize.

  245. We LOVE Matilda Jane…I only found the brand a few short months ago, but am so glad I did! I could never go back to Pre-Matilda Jane Era! I am particularly loving the knot and lap dresses on my littlest one, so versatile and comfy while so
    stinkin adorable! 🙂

  246. My fav right now is the hostess top as a dress on my little. 🙂 I’m new to MJ and soooo addicted already. Love everything about the clothes and company.

  247. My girls have several pieces of Matilda Jane. It is huge here in our small mountain town. Lots of parties. I love the quality and the unique style Denise does with each piece.

  248. Meredith Klobucnik says:

    I am a big fan of MJ, love how unique and timeless the clothing is.

  249. Brittany M says:

    I love love LOVE these adorable clothes!!! I wish I could order one of everything for me and my kiddos! <3

  250. Amy Deitz says:

    I found MJ through friends this year and love the clothes. My three year old has a couple of dresses and we are constantly getting compliments on them. In fact, I had to talk her out of wearing her knot dress to daycare today- her class is doing tie-dye t-shirts this morning and I can’t stand the thought of one of her MJ dresses being stained! I am heading to Art Fair this weekend and can’t wait to see what they have 🙂

  251. Erin McPherson says:

    I just love Matilda Jane! When my daughter wears it, I can’t help but smile because she just looks so darn cute! I think my favorite piece is the first piece I ever bought, the Jumping Wendy that I bought at a trunk show in 2010. It still sort of fits my 2 1/2 yr old but I just can’t stand to let it go yet.

  252. I Loveeeee platinum. All of it. My favorite this season is the Swiss Miss Knot dress and the Loretta flutter :))

  253. I LOVE MJ clothing. My daughter looks so sweet when wearing them.

  254. Brie Rivera says:

    I just heard about Matilda Jane from an old co-worker. She told me to buy a dress for daughter asap from there.

  255. Karisa A. says:

    I absolutely love MJ clothing and like you, was just recently introduced! My favorite right now has to be the tuney tank. I got it to pair with cotton candy tutu and the sweet pea leggings!

  256. I love these clothes! They are so beautiful, unique, and fun!!!

  257. I wear the mama line as much as my daughter wears the child’s line. It is an addiction!

  258. My favorite MJ pieces ever are the Cher dress and the summertime tank dress!!

  259. LOVE Love Matilda Jane clothing. I can’t pick just one piece I love it all.

  260. Nikki DeSantis says:

    LOVE Matilda Jane clothing! My 2 girls are big fans as is their Mama! We wear it all the time in our house, both girls and mama!!

  261. I love the dairy queen gabbi skirt!! I fell in love with it when my daughter did. She has always enjoyed clothing, like any other typical 3 year old girl, but she loves the way the skirt twirls, the pockets on the skirt, etc etc. I watched her fall in love with the skirt & love seeing HOW SHE FELT in the skirt…she felt pretty & playful…all the things you would dream a little girl should feel. So, now i have become a huge Matilda Jane sucker too!! haha. I looked at other friends buying the clothes and could NEVER dream of spending that on kids clothing. Then, after buying a few “special” pieces as my daugter calls them…i saw every now & then it is worth it. So, Matilda Jane won me over too. I love knowing my daughter feels “adorable, pretty, fancy & playful” in a few “special clothes” as she calls them…

    –jennifer

  263. Hope Boyce says:

    So jealous that u just found MJ and are getting to attend Art Fair, We need one of those Ellie’s so bad…LOL I’m a young Grandma (GIGI) who just found MJ in Jan. I buy all my little grand daughter Emmi Kate’s clothes to help my daughter who is a single parent.. The minute I saw this brand I fell in love and knew she had to have some of it. The vintage look of it is so unique… PLease enjoy your time and soak it all in for me and all the ones who won’t get to attend…XOXO

  273. Amy Hilley says:

    My favorite MJC would probably be the Vivian roundabout ellie for my girls. There is so much to love! And for me the Charlie dress.

  274. Kelli W-S says:

    I’m a long time fan of MJ clothing. I can’t think of one favorite piece, as there have been so many that we’ve loved throughout the years. Art Fair pieces rank pretty high as our favorites!

  275. Jennifer V. says:

    Our fav piece of Matilda Jane so far is probably our Platinum Poolside dress, and regular line would be Truffle Tank Dress from the Fall You & Me line.

  276. Our favorite piece is the first one we ever bought and it is still hanging in my daughter’s closet (even though she outgrew it a couple of years ago.) I can’t remember the official name, but it was a red checked pleasant top.

  277. Love Matilda Jane! Everything I have ever ordered for myself or my girls has been just perfect! We get compliments every time we wear anything from MJC 🙂 I also love how you order through Trunk Keepers and not from a huge online retailer-it keeps the shopping process fun and the items unique!

  278. I love the Days of Summer Dress on my daughter!!!

  279. Oh wow that is a tough one! I love all the kids clothes, but when talking of Mama clothes I love the Xanadu and all the skirts!! 🙂
