Air Essentials
The original Spanx Air Essentials pieces are some of my favorite items in my wardrobe, so I was excited to add another top to my collection.
The good: The cut of this top is flattering, and the thoughtful details make it feel elevated rather than just a basic tee.
The disappointing: The fabric quality has noticeably changed and, unfortunately, has not been the same for at least the past two years. The newer fabric feels thinner, snags more easily, and develops pills after only a few washes, even when washed on delicate and air dried. I have Air Essentials pieces from four years ago that still look significantly better than ones I purchased last year.
This particular top arrived already snagged, seemingly from the tag being folded against the fabric inside the package. And if you’re wondering whether this is a lower-quality version made specifically for the Anniversary Sale, I can assure you it is not. I purchased a top directly from Spanx last year, and it had the exact same issue.
Spanx, please bring back the original fabric quality that made Air Essentials such a standout collection. Until then, I’m unfortunately reconsidering future purchases.
