Cos

I've seen some lovely things on the Cos website. There isn't one near me so rather than buy in triplicate, can anyone tell me about their sizing? Does it come up big/small?

Also, are there any mid-season sales or codes? And what's the quality like?

Sizing is bonkers, you need to buy in triplicate from Cos above all other shops! Sizing often generous and they cut for oversized look so depending on your own preferences you may want to size down anyway especially in tops and jackets/coats.

They often have mid season sales - usually about 30% off. I've never seen a code.

IME quality generally v, v good

Comes in large so depending on your height you either take one or two sizes down. Pants and fitted skirts are somewhat truer to size.

There's an odd free shipping code they send you by newsletter but they're usually quite specific the last one I can recall was for men's jumpers only. Don't know if it's the same in the UK but here they charge a return fee so check their terms. I prefer the shop to the website and only ever use that if my size is out of stock in store or they only had one with a stain or something.

Thanks for the replies.

It sounds as though I'm just going to have to guess. I am quite top heavy so the over-sized thing doesn't usually work for me. Maybe this won't be the shop for me...

Yup, bonkers sizing - I have lots of things from Cos - ranging from a 12 to a 16 (I'm a 14) making it very hard to buy online. the things in s / m / l in my experience are big, as are the 'oversized' things, whereas the tailored trousers / fitted shirts are much more true to size. HTH.

I'm usually a size 10 on top and 12 on the bottom.

In Cos, I take a size small. If I'm buying trousers, I buy size 12. I hope that helps.

Really helpful, thanks.

Their sizing is completely bonkers but I've had some lovely things from there and I've got large boobs.
