Coast sizing

[Tinkjon]

Are Coast dresses usually small for their size? I was hoping desperately to get into an 18 but my aunt who's usually a 12 has recently got a size 16 dress! Does that mean they run very small or could it just have been that particular style?

Well everything I've bought seems the right size, but maybe i've chosen things that are cut so it doesn't mattaer?

I find they fit quite small. I can wear a 10 in most places but I am always 12 in Coast

It is the only shop where I could buy something in my size (an 8) without trying it on. They are true to size, ime.

I think they're slightly big? I have about 6 Coast dresses and if anything have to go down a size, probably best to try on the style you're after.

blimey! I reckon you should just try on in the shop then, I assume you were planning to shop online?
