'Cos' clothes....can anyone tell me abut them?

[gerbo]

I have just found the 'Cos' website and I really like the clothes. Can anyone advise re the sizing?

I'm a pear shaped size 10-12 - if I buy Boden (on ebay!) a 10 bottom half always fits but in stores like Next I can be a 12.

How do the S, M, L sizes size up? Also, do they wash well, generally good quality? TIA.

Very good quality, wash up well. Quite small sizings though.

Emoji, thanks. That's really helpful. Love the name by the way

I often have to size down in their dresses and knitwear to get a good fit. Skirts and trousers true to size no vanity sizing in my experience. Quality is excellent.

Everything washes well and stays in great shape.

I have to size down at least one and sometimes two sizes, I blame it on the fact I'm not Scandinavian tall. Trousers are the only things there that sort of fit true to size but if it's a wider fit I size down.

If you can visit a shop I'd go there over shopping online, it's kind of a store you have to familiarise yourself with. Things that look awful on a hanger often look great on and vice versa. I love their dresses and blouses, basic t-shirts and nightwear are fab too.

I'm a 10/12 and everything I have from Cos is S. I think the clothes come up massive, even on things like Breton tops, not just the more drapey styles. I only have tops and dresses from there so not sure about bottoms.
