I have 5 or six pieces of BD & not one has shed a thread.  I look for something else to blame.

@DasMEM2  you are absolutely correct to notice that the BFD cozy chic ultra lite sheds! It is my biggest complaint about this line, and I do have quite a few pieces from them. Their cozy chic ultra lite is the weakest link in their brand, and they DO need to fix it!

 

Ignore the other posters who say it's your fault or that you don't know how to launder. I am very careful about laundering this particular line, and the ultra lite from several pieces, bought at different times, shed and pill. On my seatbelt, on my violin case, on other clothing, on my dashboard--everywhere! I have avoided purchasing the ultra lite fabrication since then. The malibu and sunbleached lines do not shed if you're looking for alternatives.

 

You would have better results contacting the company directly; albeit, if you purchased through QVC, they need to be aware of the defect as well.

 

Thank you for voicing this!

I've returned several Barefoot Dreams items to QVC because of the issue with shedding.  Even after they were washed, there were issues with shedding. It's embarrassing to be at work and have people ask where all those little fuzzies on the floor are coming from. 😂

I am sending out a request to BFD to fix the Cozychic Ultra Lite fabrication. This would be a great fabrication if it didn't shed on everything. If you really read the reviews, you would see that they all say the same thing. There is nothing worse than wearing this fabrication and have the shedding follow you every where you go. I have washed these items, as suggested, and there is still a problem. There is still the issue of the sparkly items that end up on everything. For the price of these items, I think you can do better. I will not purchase anything in this BFD line until you address the fact that there is a problem and that you are committed to fixing it. I f you think this is just my opinion., as they say, 'read the room'.


@DasMEM2 I encourage you to continue to leave reviews on those items.  Also, watch the livestream page here at the top of the QVC website under the Watch tab for the Barefoot Dreams livestreams.  Very few people tune into those Barefoot Dreams livestreams, but it would be a good way to ask the representative questions or leave feedback.

I have not experienced any shedding with the BD pieces that I own.

Some items do in fact shed.  I get furious when they shed on my seatbelt and I then get fuzz on the next outfit I wear when I get in the car.  It's the Ultra Light that is the culprit.

Mine shed all over and I hate it. Picking up flecks of it on my flooring all the time. Also on car seats, furniture.etc. For what they charge that should never happen.

Mine are the charcoal color. I wash them in cold water on delicate cycle and lay flat to dry.
