Like them both equally, not much in it price wise. Any thoughts on quality ?

If you're a 10-12 then a 28DD, 30DD or 32DD is actually pretty small so you may want to do a bra intervention as well as buying a new coat if you're saying your boobs are actually quite big Xmas Wink

Sizing on jumpers depends on the style. I bought two recently that were fitted and smaller than I expected but have tried things on in store that were bigger than expected - sorry!

I haven't got the cashmere dress but have got about six of the various merino ones from the last few years, they are my standard autumn/winter work wear. Wear really well, no bobbles, and wash perfectly on the 30 degree wool wash on my machine. The dress sizing seems fairly good/standard and I buy my normal size.

I've just bought 2 coats from the Jaeger outlet. I'm a 10/12, really 10 on top and 12 on bottom. I got both in a 10 and they're a good fit even with a thickish bulky jumper underneath.

I'm undecided whether to keep both as it seems a bit indulgent. I ordered mine a few days before Christmas when they had extra discounts and they were £100 each, one is wool and cashmere. So £700 worth of costs for £200. Lovely packaging and fast delivery.

Does anyone have the cashmere dress?

What is the sizing like on jumpers- I'm a size 12 but they only have small left in the one I want!

I think I'll revisit when I have a new job. Otherwise I'm dooooooomed

I think you mean thank me for introducing you to the flash sale New Xmas Grin Wine.

That is why I bought two for £160!!

They must have been busy today New, they were in stock in all sizes this morning.

Have a good look in the Flash sale section New, honestly at 40% off the prices shown they have to be bought!!!! Lets hope the mild weather disappears.

BTW the long one makes absolutely no sense for my lifestyle, live on a farm on a muddy track and drive everywhere but I bought it anyway Xmas Grin.

I'm going for the short jacket ones they have this season I want to wear in the car, I drive everywhere really these days

I always buy their coats on a flash sale - they are fab for the ££.

Which Jaeger one are you going for? Agree that Reiss quality isn't good, my Jaeger jackets and coats are great though.

I'm already struggling to choose between colours ...

I'd go for a 10 I think. I was a 12-14 and would fit into a size 10 at Jaeger.

Order both! Send the one that didn't fit back.

Oh ok so I'm normally a 10/12 but with DD boobs sorry for the over share, shall I stick with the 12 so I can wear a jumper under it?

Jaeger, every time. But agree, their sizing is generous.

I've got a really nice Jaeger coat but it's a size 6 and I'm usually a 10 so size down! Not sure what you'd do if you were usually a 6...

Yes, Jaeger.
DH and I both bought Reiss coats one year... Won't make that mistake again. Bobbled by the Spring. My Jaeger coat looks pristine.
