Hi there, the title says it all really. I am usually a size 12, in shops like Awear... size 20 million in shops like Mango.. how does white stuff compare, are they big or small fitting. Thank you.

Don't know about the sizing but there is a White Stuff shop at Cornmarket in Belfast, if you're close?

Thanks for the reply Bishoplyn, I'm not close. I've never ordered online before so kinda nervous to do so in case the sizes are all wrong.

Anyone know re sizing? Thank you....

sizes are a bit odd ime .... the trousers are always enormous around the waist/hips - their size 12 is fine on the legs but flaps around the middle on me ..

trousers are also quite short, so at 5'7" I need the 'long' version of things

skirts quite big again (am a size 10 in their skirts)

but tops quite slim around the bust - depending on the style I'm quite often a 14 when I'm almost always a 12 everywhere else

Generalhaig, are you me? Grin Exactly the same here, in all aspects.

I've ordered from Germany after reading reviews (on the site) on individual items which often contain tips as to whether to size up or down. It seems vary hugely between garments.

I'm in Ireland and have ordered from them a few times. I'd be a 12-14 in general but in their skirts I'm easily a 12. The tops would be a bit more variable, tend to be tighter around the bust and upper arms - but still the 12s I've ordered are fine. If I was trying them on in person I might go for 14 but the only thing I've sent back was a dress that was too short for my treetrunks. But yes, read the reviews - I only buy stuff that's had a few reviews to give an idea...

Btw, don't know where you are but if you're in Dublin, 53 degrees north in Blanch and C.mines have some WS stock - they don't seem to charge up on the exchange rate and are handy for checking general sizing if nothing else.

It costs 8 euro delivery and it cost me 4 euro to send that dress back.
