I wish I'd found Mango Violeta Outlet sooner!

Thats all really. The money I've wasted on the 'it'll do' clothes since I've put on weight. 🙁 I could have spent it so much more wisely here.

Just took delivery of a box of clothes - and every single piece is lovely quality and properly fits!

Ooh, that's great. What did you buy?

Can you tell me about sizing please. I've asked about this brand on here before but didn't get much response.

I'm 5'2 and size 18.

I love some of their stuff but am concerned it is cut for much taller women.

I got quite a haul in the sale.
I'm 5'3 and a 16 Apple. I'll try and find links, but amongst other things I got a linen jumper size M, cotton beach shirt size M, 2 pairs black slim ankle trousers for work and a pair of jet black jeggings, all a 16. The length is 29 inside leg and the waist and hips are perfect, no gaping on the waist.

Oh that's a bit of a rant - but I was so pleased with the stuff 😊

You have just made my day OP! I have ordered a few things from Violetta before but always thought it was a bit on the pricey side. But I didn't know about the outlet - I feel an order coming on!

Damn that outlet 😉

Ooh thanks for that OP! I've just had a browse of the website and there are some fab things on there. I've just ordered a batch of items to try on.

Link here if anyone wants it.

Thanks for putting the link on, I forgot to

Went to the normal Mango outlet site as I'm a size 12/14, but according to their sizing that means XL!!! Is that right? Should I go to the Violeta outlet site as well/instead?

That's probably right, their normal sizing comes up small.

Does the violeta stuff come up as small as normal mango ?

There's something quite liberating about buying clothes that aren't cheap 'they'll do until I lose weight' or stuff you'll 'slim into' isn't there?

I did have a bit of a paddy in Mango when the woman told me that the Violetta stuff was online only.

poppy I'm a 16 and 16 Violeta fits well, 16 normal Mango doesn't go over my knees! The size guide on the website is accurate.

Exactly Felicia
No more billowy crotch M&S work trousers for me

It does drive me nuts that they don't stock or in store. Or even have their own stores. I really think they're missing a trick there.

Totally agree!

Thanks for the info on sizing. Looks like I'll just have to place an order then
