Fat Face sizing! Sale Stuff!

My Fat Face sale stuff arrived today. I'm always a 12 in there but the three dresses I ordered in a 12 are huge, really wide waists and gaping around the back. Anybody else had this?

I've only bought from there recently but found the sizing quite big

Judydreamsofhorses · 29/06/2017 20:52

I only have one thing from Fat Face and it's a size eight, and still pretty big, whereas in other shops I'm a 10/12.

Bellaposy · 29/06/2017 20:55

Massive! I'm usually a 10/12 but I found their sizes huge. I had to return almost everything.

SesameSparkle · 29/06/2017 20:57

Yes sizing is very generous, with lots of things cut for apple shape, so with bigger waists.

BuzzKillington · 29/06/2017 20:58

Yes, sizes are massive. I have a couple of their fitted summer dresses in a size 10 and I am normally a 12 in other shops.

MaisyPops · 29/06/2017 21:01

I find their sizing massive.

I'm a fairly standard size 8 and in recent years fat Face seems to be getting increasingly generous in their sizing.

Thanks all. I'm tempted to keep it because it's all out of stock in a 10 and it was so cheap. I know this sounds ridiculous but I might try and shrink them a bit in the drier!

Yes I'm usually a size 12, but have bought a load of items at size 10 and they are still roomy

Wish I'd seen this before I ordered. Size 10 top will probably be indecent.

I bought a top from there last winter that was like a maternity top on me. It didn't suit me much, in other ways, it turned out, so I ended up donating it after only wearing it twice.

That was a 12.

Shame because I am wearing a size 14 "boyfriend" shirt bought a couple of years ago and it has just the right amount of ease for something that is meant to be loose fitting and fits really nearly across my shoulders.

And it's not bloody visco!se

PickAChew · 01/07/2017 21:31

Nearly. Not nearly.

PickAChew · 01/07/2017 21:32

Neatly!!!!!

My dp bought two pairs of chinos from there recently. One pair fit ok the other colour was too big. He took them back and held them up against another pair of the same size and they were bigger again!
One style of trousers, same size on the tag but three different actual sizes!!

I'm a size 16 in jackets, 12 in jumpers & tops & 14 in jeans. Their sizing is all over the place. I wore a lot of their pop over tops as maternity wear.
