Coast sizing

[Runningupthathill82]

Coast...what's their sizing like? Spotted some culottes I like in the sale, but not sure to go for an 8 or a 10. Currently a 10 in Topshop and an 8 in most other places, if that helps...

I find I am two sizes bigger at coast. So when I was a 12 I fit into a coast 16...

Now I am a 16 and I don't fit their clothes!

Yikes! So I might be best off sizing up, from the sounds of it.

I've always found the dresses to be generous but think the cut suits my shape - big backside but small waist. Tops same. I'd probably size up in trousers but nothing else.

If you have any sort of boobs at all you defo need a size up. They always seem quite generous around the hips but tight on top.

I used to work there. Skirts/dresses/trousers: Very small in the waist, big on the hips. Tops: Very tight on the bust, odd length. Anything in jersey go two sizes down.

Sizes are very small, especially in the bust.

Dresses are seriously tiny. I'm 5'4, 9.5 stone and had to get a 14!

Size 10 fits me perfectly everywhere but on the norky. Size 12 is too big everywhere but the norks.

I gave up on coast years ago.

See, I find them to be on the generous side.

I'm an hourglass (32H) and would say I'm a large 12 - 10/12 in places like Next, more like a 14 in Topshop.

Coast 12 fits me absolutely perfectly.

I find their sizing generous too, I always size down especially in skirts or trousers from there.
