Where the list starts
It starts with the brand storefront, not a search box. We read every tab the brand publishes and collect the item codes, which on 21 August 2026 came to a little over 140. That matters because a search for the brand name pulls in a pile of look-alikes from other sellers, and those are not the same garments.
What gets dropped
- No live price. If the retailer would not quote a price at the time of the snapshot, the piece is out. A page that says nothing about cost is not a page worth sending you to.
- Out of stock. Same reasoning. Listings come back, and when they do the piece comes back with the next snapshot.
- Duplicate listings. The brand often publishes the same garment several times, once per colour, with titles that differ by a single trailing word. Those are folded into one card and the colours are listed on it. Ratings are not added together for these, because the retailer shares one review pool across the whole family and adding them up would inflate the number.
That took 97 pieces through to the catalog.
How a piece lands in a section
By what it is, not by which storefront tab it sat in. This sounds obvious and it is the single biggest thing we had to fix. The brand photographs a shirt dress with a pair of stockings, and the shirt dress ends up filed under thigh high socks. Follow the tabs and you get a skirt section with pinafores in it and a hosiery section with a dress. So the type of garment is read from the listing title, and the tab is used for exactly one decision: whether a pair of thigh highs belongs in the plus size section or the standard one.
Where the numbers come from
- Prices come from the retailer product feed and are the price at the moment of the snapshot. They move. Treat the figure on the card as a guide and the figure on the retailer page as the truth.
- Ratings and review counts are read off the listing. 97 of the 97 pieces carry a rating; the rest are too new or too quiet, and their cards say so rather than showing an empty row of stars.
- Size tables are copied out of the listing image description as text. 75 pieces have one. We do not round, convert or tidy the figures, so if a brand table says 33.9 to 37.8 inches, that is what the page says.
- Bullet points under the heading from the listing itself are the brand words, trimmed to six and otherwise untouched.
What we never do
We do not invent measurements for garments that ship without them. We do not write reviews from people who do not exist. We do not reorder the catalog to push whatever pays best. If a piece is thin, badly rated or missing half its information, it stays in the list with that showing.
