What's sizing like in Top Shop?

I've never bought anything from there gasp but spotted a top I like the look of. I'm a 14 pretty much everywhere but have big boobs (32FF) so I'm wondering if I should size up?

It comes up small, in my experience. I nearly always size up although they can surprise you sometimes.

Thanks Flo. I've just noticed a review of the top in question saying that it comes up small, so I've ordered the 16.

I am a size 16 but don't fit in Topshop 16's until I'm 12 and a half stone and a size 14 everywhere else (2 stones less than I am now!). Always size up. Especially if you're large of nork.

It's tiny. I'm a size 6-8 in M&S but a 10-12 in Topshop. Meh.

Oh dear, that doesn't bode well! Ah well, I've ordered it, shouldn't have spent the money really so if it doesn't fit it's probably a good thing. Stoopid sizing for teenagers Envy

Yeah, flippin teenagers with their flippin youthful physiques. I wouldn't mind but Topshop stock sizes 4 and 6 so why does everything need to be so teeny?!

I wouldn't mind but I was never a lithe and skinny teenager Sad

I'm late 30's and wear 10 topshop jeans- I'm a 10/12 elsewhere so find the sizing pretty consistent
It's the crop lengths that catch me out

It's what sizes you are used to Smile I would say the likes of m&s and next are massive. I'm 39 and fits a topshop size 8. I can't find anything that fits in m&s.

Oh yes to the crop tops. Definitely not want anyone to see them.

And yes to it being consistent with river island, h&m and new look. They are where I usually shop. I seem to fit boden size 8 too when I order occasionally.
