Quick question - M&S sizing

6 replies

M&S cashmere jumper, do you reckon the sizing is generous?

I'm usually a size 10 however tall with long arms... not sure whether to get a 12 but then I like things quite fitted.

WWYD?

I think they are generous on top and in dresses but skimpy in trousers. Go with the 10.

It's impossible to predict. I tried a 12 on today and it was absolutely enormous - at least an 18. Sometimes an 8 is too big. Sometimes a 14 is too small. Completely random.

Honestly, I think it depends not only on the item, but on the phase of the moon and whether whoever is in charge at M&S has had blueberries for breakfast or whatever.

ha ha Remus!

I think I'll risk the 10 and if it's too small then it wasn't meant to be.

There is 25% off which is the only reason I'm going to buy what will be my first ever cashmere!

With M&S I tend to find that the more expensive it is, the smaller the sizing.

M & S cashmere comes up very small I find
I would size up to a 12

Those jumper are super small
I bought a size 14 and I am a 10. It was still slim on me.
