Cut Loose at The Meeting Place

The name Cut Loose is no accident.  You can truly cut loose in this clothing designed for women who value comfort as much as fashion.   The company was founded in 1977 by two enterprising expatriates who saw a way to bring European flair to California. They garment-dyed cotton T-shirts and drawstring pants and sold them on San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf.

Cut Loose clothing is still made of natural fibers—mostly cotton, linen, and cellulose-derived Tencel—and are garment dyed in a San Francisco manufacturing facility. (Sweaters are made overseas.)  Colors, styles, and fabrics are refreshed every season, but best-selling items–such as the cropped cardi—are typically carried over.

Besides the company-owned stores in Solana Beach and San Francisco, Cut Loose women’s clothing is only sold in better boutiques, such as The Meeting Place and Boutique 15.

  1. [...] Cut Loose clothing is for women who aren’t willing to sacrifice fashion for comfort and visa versa—that’s why it’s become one of the most popular designers at The Meeting Place.  Cut Loose began out of a box on San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf, when two enterprising expatriates decided to bring European flair to California and sold dyed cotton T-shirts and drawstring pants to passers by.  Because there were no dressing rooms on the wharf, sizes had to be forgiving, and that tradition continues today but with a much wider variety of styles, which can be dressed up or down, in an array of soothing and fun colors. window.fbAsyncInit = function() { FB.init({appId: "129246677114668", status: true, cookie: true, xfbml: true}); }; (function() { var e = document.createElement("script"); e.async = true; e.src = document.location.protocol + "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"; document.getElementById("fb-root").appendChild(e); }()); Share: [...]
